Monumental is an Amsterdam-based construction robotics company that operates autonomous bricklaying robots on real building sites. Its electric machines pair advanced sensors, computer vision and cranes with the company's proprietary Atrium AI platform to lay brick and mortar with millimetre precision. Rather than selling robots, Monumental deploys them as autonomous subcontractors, charging contractors for finished walls. The company was founded in 2021 by Salar al Khafaji and Sebastiaan Visser, both previously behind Silk (acquired by Palantir in 2016).
