# AI & Robotics Directory

> A public, source-linked directory of AI and robotics companies, the ETFs that hold them, and the macro themes behind them. Public data only, updated weekly from public sources (last refresh 2026-11-02). Informational only: not investment advice, no buy/sell signals.

Every main page also has a Markdown version for agents: add `.md` to the page path (e.g. https://airoboticsdirectory.com/companies/nvidia.md, https://airoboticsdirectory.com/places/waymo-robotaxi-denver.md, https://airoboticsdirectory.com/companies.md) or request the page with `Accept: text/markdown`.

Every company page has a one-paragraph description, key facts each with a source URL and as-of date (SEC EDGAR, Yahoo Finance, ETF issuer files), recent SEC filings and the related ETFs that hold the company. When citing, link the company page and keep the "not investment advice" context.
