Calgary, Alta. – Promise Robotics, an AI and robotics technology company, has signed a multi-year commercial partnership with the Alberta Division of Mattamy Homes, North America’s largest family-owned homebuilder, to expand prefabricated homebuilding in the province.
The collaboration will integrate Promise Robotics’ Factory-as-a-Service™ platform with Mattamy Homes’ operations in two master-planned communities in Alberta, supporting single-family, semi-detached and multi-family home construction. The technology aims to speed build times, improve efficiency and lower costs by automating key aspects of the homebuilding process.
“Promise Robotics has developed an industrial backbone to retool and enable homebuilders and manufacturers across many communities,” said Ramtin Attar, CEO and co-founder of Promise Robotics. “We are thrilled to have Mattamy Homes’ Alberta Division join our Robotic Factory-as-a-Service platform in Calgary.”
The Calgary-based facility will serve as a production hub for new communities while giving other local builders access to advanced homebuilding capabilities. The model is designed to be scalable and could be replicated in U.S. markets.
“Working with Promise Robotics is opening up new ways for us to think about building at scale through prefabrication and automation,” said Chris Field, Vice President of Finance & Procurement for Mattamy Homes’ Alberta Division. “There’s incredible potential in the efficiencies this technology can bring, and we’re eager to learn and apply it as it continues to evolve.”
Promise Robotics’ platform integrates robotics and AI into construction, aiming to make industrialized homebuilding accessible at scale. Through the partnership with Mattamy, the company says it is demonstrating how leading builders can adopt advanced technologies to improve operational efficiency and respond to housing demand.
