Market
Fleet-orchestration, simulation and programming software that sits above robot hardware — the layer where margins are migrating as cobot and AMR hardware commoditizes. For Meridian it is the natural defence of a large installed robotics base against software-led challengers, and the connective tissue that turns point robots into a managed fleet.
