About

Nicolas Yeh is Co-Founder and CEO of Manifold Industries, a Y Combinator-backed robotics startup delivering low-cost, deployment-ready autonomous robots for warehouses.

Founder Insights

His rare combination of deep supply chain heritage, institutional finance experience, and a mission to democratize warehouse automation sets him apart as a founder uniquely positioned to transform this industry.
