Hardware is hard

In Office: A series from First Round where we explore the physical spaces of the startups building the future. In this episode, we visit the production facility and R&D lab of Matic, a company that makes intelligent home cleaning robots. Co-founder Mehul Nariyawala gives us a tour of their space, a haven for scrappy builders: featuring Matic-themed movie posters designed by a production manager, furniture thrifted off Facebook Marketplace (or built by Matic employees), and a brand-new production line where every single Matic is hand-assembled.
