Robots that operate where people cannot reach
At Isagoge we develop robotic systems that automate the inspection of hard-to-reach mining boreholes. We collapse the process: fewer steps, fewer risks.
A climbing robot for borehole inspection
Today borehole inspection is carried out manually, exposing workers to risks that have led to production halts. We are developing an autonomous robot that travels through the borehole, measures its deviation and delivers the results to the supervisor.
Safety first
Zero operator exposure during inspection.
End-to-end solution
A single robot, with no intermediate platforms.
In-house development
Mechanics, electronics and software built by our team.
Alongside the industry
In development and validation with mining industry players.
At Isagoge we believe no one should have to risk their life for the sake of the operation.
Through the technology we develop, we aim to set a new standard that ensures safety, efficiency and continuity in the production process.
Five years developing autonomous systems together
We met at Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, developing autonomous vehicles in the Caleuche UC robotics team. In 2025 we decided to bring that experience to mining and founded Isagoge.
