A smarter surgical platform
We're building the intelligence layer for surgery, starting with endourology.

Technology
Building the autonomous, AI-guided future of surgery



Google Maps for the Human Body
Surgeon-friendly navigation & interface
Andromeda’s spatial navigation system provides surgeons with GPS-like guidance through human anatomy, ensuring they always know where they are and what to do next. With a iPad interface, learning new procedures becomes streamlined. Surgeons can master techniques without a burdensome robotic training program.
This isn't just easier surgery. It's surgery reimagined for a software-first world.
THE AUTONOMOUS FUTURE
Leading the way in autonomous surgery
We are developing proprietary AI models that will allow for surgeon-in-the-loop autonomous surgical tasks. Our software will act as a "sous surgeon", leveraging data from thousands of cases to supercharge surgical decisions.
Our goal: Enable surgeons to perform more procedures per day and empower every surgeon to deliver optimal results to every patient, every time.

Continuous updates
Open, continuously-evolving platform
Andromeda's software platform continuously improves. Regular updates mean new capabilities, enhanced precision, and expanded procedures.
Our open architecture seamlessly integrates with existing surgical tools, allowing any interventional procedure to run on our platform. It's not just a surgical robot. It's the brain at the center of the operating room of the future.
The timeline
From vision to clinical transformation


2023
Founded by Serial Autonomy & Healthcare Entrepreneurs
Nick Damiano (CEO) and Kartik Tiwari (CTO) launched Andromeda Surgical in San Francisco, combining deep medtech experience with autonomous vehicle expertise. Nick previously founded two successful medtech companies (Zenflow and Avail MedSystems), while Kartik co-founded Starsky Robotics and built the world's first driverless truck on public roads.

2024
World's First Robotic-Assisted HoLEP Procedure
Achieved a historic medical milestone with the world's first robotic-assisted HoLEP (RoLEP™) procedure performed at Universidad Católica in Santiago, Chile. Dr. Cristián Trucco completed the surgery using their tablet-based interface, launching the ASTRA clinical trial under the leadership of Prof. Peter Gilling, who pioneered the HoLEP procedure in 1997.

2025
Strategic Partnerships for Global Expansion
Announced major partnerships with Richard Wolf (endoscopic imaging and surgical instrumentation) and Quanta System (holmium laser technology) to accelerate clinical development and global market access. These alliances provide critical infrastructure for scaling their robotic platform beyond initial procedures. Andromeda is pursuing additional partnerships to integrate seamlessly with various medical devices and surgical tools.

2026+
Expanding Beyond Urology to Multi-Specialty Platform
With successful clinical trials ongoing in various countries, Andromeda Surgical is preparing to scale beyond HoLEP procedures into additional surgical specialties. Our long-term vision positions us as "the Tesla of Surgical Robotics"—enabling every surgeon to operate at world expert level through progressive autonomy and AI assistance.
