Ary Indarapu is Co-Founder and CEO of Avea Robotics (YC P26), a robotics infrastructure company building ultra low-latency VR teleoperation software to help robotics companies scale real-world deployments.

Ary earned a BS in Computer Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and previously wrote flight software for NASA and DoD satellites, giving him deep roots in embedded and aerospace systems.

Ary believes the path to autonomous robots at scale is not just an autonomy problem but an operations problem, and is building the infrastructure layer that bridges the gap between lab and field.

Backed by Y Combinator (P26) and investors including Afore Capital and Third Kind Venture Capital, Avea has raised over $1M and serves customers across manufacturing, logistics, and hospitality.

Within one month of launching Sentinel, Avea went live on a dozen robots and scaled from 0 to $200K ARR, establishing itself as the fastest VR teleop software on the market.
