Hospital Robot Moxi Joins AARP AgeTech Accelerator — The Future of Senior Care Has Arrived!
Right, picture this — you’re in a hospital, and instead of running around fetching supplies, a robot named Moxi does it for you. Well, the clever folks at Diligent Robotics built her, and now they’ve just joined the AARP AgeTech Collaborative Accelerator, which is like a startup bootcamp — but for tech that helps us age better.
Diligent Robotics, based in Austin, Texas, has been quietly transforming healthcare since 2017. Their robot, Moxi, has already saved hospital staff nearly 600,000 hours and completed over 1.25 million deliveries — everything from lab samples to medications. That’s a lot of fetching, even by robot standards.
Now they’re taking that experience into senior living and long-term care. Why? Because by 2040, the U.S. will lose around 18 million care workers, just as 2.5 million new jobs open up. You don’t need a calculator — that’s a big problem, and Moxi might just be part of the solution.
Imagine Moxi delivering medication, running supplies, or helping staff stay focused on what really matters — people. It’s not about replacing humans; it’s about giving them back time. Think of it as adding a dependable, tireless coworker who never complains about coffee breaks.
Through the AARP AgeTech Accelerator, Diligent gets direct market support, access to care partners, and guidance on how robots like Moxi can make a real difference for older adults.
And for you? If you work in healthcare, senior living, or tech — this is a glimpse into how physical AI will make care smarter, faster, and more human.
