Scooter Bro

The robot that rides the wire. Scooter Bro clamps onto a live overhead power line and just… goes — crawling the span, thermal-scanning every splice, flagging the frayed strands and dry brush that start wildfires. No helicopter, no bucket truck, no shut-off. The lineman who never clocks out. It's not a scooter, it's a bro — he just took the high road.

On the wire

  • Works it live — clamps onto energized lines, no outage, no crew on the pole.
  • IP67 sealed — rain, dust, salt fog, and a 765 kV field can't faze it.
  • Built in the USA — machined, assembled, and burned-in stateside.

Put it on your line

Run Scooter Bro on a pilot circuit. Leave your work email and the fleet desk will line up a demo — specs, integration, and a span of your choosing.
