ENGLEWOOD, NJ, Dec 10, 2025 – Okibo has launched the EG7+, an autonomous, AI-guided robot for painting and drywall finishing. The EG7+ robot made its first public appearance at the Federal and AEC Innovation Day in Phoenix, AZ, hosted by Hensel Phelps. The EG7+ handles high wall projects and reaches 24 feet for sanding, painting, and level 4 finishing.
“We were thrilled to invite Okibo to participate in our event last month, focused on creative innovations addressing the industry’s need for safer and more efficient building practices. The EG7+ demonstrated a remarkable level of autonomy and precision for high walls that caught the attention of everyone present. This robot isn’t just a tool; it’s a major step forward in protecting our skilled workforce while achieving exceptional quality. We are excited about the potential of the EG7+,” says Thai Nguyen, Hensel Phelps.
The EG7+ is battery-powered and requires no site preparation, external references, or technical expertise to operate. It uses a patented system that combines AI-based 3D scanning with real-time modeling to navigate and perform tasks. The robot finishes about 1,000 square feet per hour and operates without cords, pumps, or Wi-Fi. Its 800-pound frame, 27-inch width, and omnidirectional drive give it tight maneuverability in limited spaces.
“With the EG7+ workers are experiencing a significant reduction in physical burnout and fatigue among finish crews by eliminating the need for repetitive overhead work. Additionally, customers have noted up to a 5x increase in productivity for Level 4 and Level 5 sanding jobs, while consistently meeting quality standards,” says Nadav Shuruk, COO and co-founder of Okibo.
