Episode 166: Giving Robots "Common Sense": Inside RightHand Robotics with Yaro Tenzer

Robotics has promised to transform manufacturing and logistics for decades — but turning intelligent machines into reliable, everyday operators remains hard. In this episode of Augmented Ops, Natan Linder sits down with Yaro Tenzer, co-founder and CEO of RightHand Robotics (https://righthandrobotics.com/), to talk about what it actually takes to deploy AI-powered robotics in real operational environments. Yaro shares lessons from building robotic systems that operate in the messiness of the real world — where data is imperfect, edge cases are constant, and reliability matters more than demos. Together, they discuss why so many robotics pilots struggle to reach production, how machine learning improves through real-world feedback, and what operations leaders should understand before investing in automation. The conversation explores the intersection of robotics, AI, and operations — focusing on practical constraints, system design, and the human decisions that determine whether advanced technology delivers value or stalls on the shop floor.
