The robotics framework for simplified robot development.
Peppy is a robotics framework that takes you from development to production at scale, letting you focus on building intelligent robots while we handle the complexity.
Build and deploy robot software with ease. Peppy streamlines your entire robot stack including sensors, actuators, AI, and controllers to make robotics development accessible even if you've never worked with robots before.

Why robotics teams choose Peppy
Node-Based Robot Architecture
Define your robot stack as modular nodes such as cameras, lidar, AI brains, and servo controllers connected through a simple configuration file.
From Prototype to Production
Deploy robot software that scales from a single prototype to a fleet of robots. Peppy handles orchestration, monitoring, and updates.
Multi-Language Support
Write robot nodes in Python or Rust. Peppy connects them seamlessly with low-latency inter-process communication.
Built for Performance
Peppy is written in Rust for maximum throughput and minimal resource usage. Run more nodes on less hardware without sacrificing reliability.
