AHMEDABAD, INDIA | October 29, 2026 — Kody Robots, a leading robotics manufacturing company in India, powered by Kody Technolab Limited (NSE: KODYTECH), is setting new standards in AI-powered retail advertising with its flagship advertising robot, Odigo. Positioning itself as India's only manufacturer specializing in AI-powered advertising robots, the company is pioneering a new category of autonomous advertising solutions designed and developed in India for domestic and international markets.
With Odigo, Kody Robots is introducing a new approach to retail advertising, combining autonomous movement, interactive digital displays, artificial intelligence, and customer assistance. The Made in India innovation enables brands to communicate with shoppers beyond conventional fixed advertising screens while helping retailers create new opportunities for customer engagement and advertising revenue.
Pioneering Made in India Advertising Robots
Kody Robots is contributing to robotics innovation in India through its proprietary robot development and manufacturing capabilities. The company combines hardware engineering, AI-powered navigation, software development, and intelligent automation to deliver commercial robots designed for real-world environments.
Its flagship innovation, Odigo, demonstrates how Indian engineering expertise can address evolving global retail requirements. Rather than relying entirely on imported robotic solutions, Kody Robots is developing its own technology to serve shopping malls, hypermarkets, automobile showrooms, airports, and other high-footfall commercial destinations.
This manufacturing-led approach positions the company among the Indian pioneers bringing intelligent advertising robots from product development to commercial deployment.
Odigo Introduces a New Era of Intelligent Retail Advertising
Odigo is designed to transform how businesses engage customers within physical retail environments. Equipped with dual 32-inch interactive displays, AI-powered autonomous navigation, multilingual assistance, and a centralized content management system, the robot combines advertising with practical customer assistance.
Unlike stationary advertising displays, Odigo can move independently through designated retail spaces, showcasing brand promotions while assisting customers with store navigation and product discovery.
Its capabilities include digital campaign scheduling, interactive product promotions, intelligent wayfinding, obstacle avoidance, and advertising performance analytics.
These features make Odigo suitable for AI-powered robots for in-store brand promotion, enabling retailers and advertisers to introduce engaging customer experiences while maintaining visibility into campaign activity.
As demand grows for smart advertising robots for shopping malls and showrooms, Odigo provides businesses with a mobile advertising platform that complements existing retail media infrastructure.
Real-World Deployments Demonstrate Commercial Adoption
Kody Robots has moved beyond product demonstrations to establish Odigo across major retail destinations in India.
Its deployment network includes 15 advertising robots at Pacific Mall Jaipur and 4 robots at World Trade Park Jaipur. Odigo has also been introduced at leading shopping destinations, including LuLu Mall Thiruvananthapuram, Jio World Drive Mumbai, R City Mall Mumbai, and DLF Mall of India.
At LuLu Mall Thiruvananthapuram, five Odigo robots recorded 47,350 shopper interactions, 6,050 navigation requests, and 313,875 advertising plays between June and July 2026, according to company deployment records.
These results demonstrate Odigo's practical application in high-footfall retail environments, providing measurable evidence of advertising delivery and shopper engagement.
Kody Robots has also expanded into international markets. In October 2026, LuLu Retail UAE and Kody Middle East Holding launched a robotic advertising network featuring 62 Odigo robots across 30 LuLu stores in the UAE.
The rollout represents an important milestone for Indian-developed commercial robotics and highlights the potential for deploying AI-powered advertising solutions across international retail networks.
Leadership and Client Recognition Support Global Expansion
Commenting on the international expansion of Kody's robotics technology, Manav Patel, Managing Director of Kody Technolab Limited, stated:
"A deployment of this scale signals growing international confidence in the technology engineered at Kody Technolab, and we are proud to bring these capabilities to the UAE."
The technology's commercial relevance has also received recognition from retail partners. Speaking about the UAE robotic advertising network, Saifee Rupawala, CEO of LuLu Retail, stated:
"This initiative brings together AI, automation and retail media to create greater engagement for our customers while offering our brand partners an innovative new platform to connect with shoppers."
These developments reinforce Kody Robots' ambition to expand the international presence of Made in India robotics technology while advancing the adoption of AI-powered robots for retail.
