What is Tooling Hero?

Tooling Hero is a comprehensive tool tracking and robotics training platform that combines RFID tracking, AI-powered grasp datasets, and blockchain verification. It helps manufacturers and construction teams track tools, train humanoid robots, and prove lifecycle compliance.

How does RFID tool tracking work?

Our RFID system uses wearable readers (smart glasses, gloves, or chest-mounted devices) to automatically track tool interactions. Each tool has a unique RFID tag, and the system logs every pickup, use, and return, creating an immutable audit trail on the blockchain.

What are grasp datasets for humanoid robots?

Grasp datasets are recordings of human workers using tools, captured through our wearable systems. These datasets train humanoid robots (like Optimus or Figure) how to properly grasp and use tools in real-world scenarios, accelerating their deployment in manufacturing and construction.

What industries use Tooling Hero?

Tooling Hero is used in construction, manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and any industry requiring tool tracking, compliance documentation, or robotics training. We partner with Zoller for precision tooling and support both union and non-union environments.

How much does Tooling Hero cost?

Tooling Hero offers flexible pricing starting at $29/month for basic features, $99/month for professional features, and $299/month for enterprise with full IoT integration. We also offer custom enterprise solutions with dedicated support.

Tooling Hero: The Platform Where Tools Fight Back

We track, teach, and hand off so robots climb the ladder—not your workers. DANG it (AI names your wrench in 30s). DARN it (Drawers nag till you return them).
