About Aethon
Aethon improves healthcare efficiency and patient care by providing innovative robotic hospital delivery and asset management solutions. More than 100 hospitals throughout the United States currently employ customized Aethon solutions, allowing them to reallocate and refocus staff on what matters - the patient experience.
Based in Pittsburgh, PA and founded in 2001, Aethon is a leader in providing dependable and affordable mobile autonomous robots for practical business applications. In healthcare, the company’s automated technology platform helps hospitals increase productivity and staff satisfaction, while saving time and money. The combination of TUG® (Aethon’s Automated Robotic Delivery System (ARD), a courier system for the delivery and recovery of hospital goods and supplies and its added RFID-based asset tracking system, redefine hospital asset utilization. These two systems, working in concert to enable hospitals to improve staff efficiency and satisfaction, increase asset utilization, decrease equipment rentals and improve regulatory compliance, leading to a better overall patient experience and return on investment.
TUG can deliver meals, medications and supplies to nursing staff through the hospital while its added asset tracking and recovery system can track and locate equipment no matter where they might be hidden. Aethon products work in conjunction with each other, or separately, depending on each hospital's specialized needs.

What's in a name?
Our name is taken from one of the four horses of ancient Greek mythology that pulls Helios' chariot — the sun — across the sky each day.
At Aethon, we also set our sights high, working to develop faster, smarter and more efficient ways to deliver and track your hospitals' needs. And, like our mythological horse, our products work 24 hours a day, every day, so you can reallocate and refocus your staff on quality patient care.
