Question 1

What is Setaur?

Accepted Answer

Setaur is the AI-powered observability and debugging platform purpose-built for robotics teams developing AMRs, autonomous systems, and humanoid robots. Setaur captures and visualizes multi-modal sensor data and events from any robot stack, replays the time-synchronized data around every failure, and delivers root-cause analysis in plain English, so engineers can debug field failures in minutes instead of days.

Question 2

What problem does Setaur solve?

Accepted Answer

Robotics teams generate gigabytes of data per hour and lose days reconstructing what happened after a field failure, because the data that explains it is buried across hours of recordings. Setaur captures the events that matter, lets engineers navigate straight to the moments that explain a failure, and delivers AI root-cause analysis, collapsing time-to-resolution from days to minutes.

Question 3

How does Setaur help engineers find what matters?

Accepted Answer

Setaur uses event-triggered capture. Instead of leaving engineers to dig through hours of continuous recordings, Setaur captures the full sensor context around anomalies and lets them navigate directly to the moments that explain a failure. Teams keep the data they need without storing everything, which also reduces storage when full continuous recording is not required.

Question 4

What is AI root-cause analysis in Setaur?

Accepted Answer

When a robot fails, Setaur reads the time-synchronized sensor data and events around the failure and delivers a root-cause analysis in plain English. Robotics engineers can replay the failure bit-exact to verify the diagnosis, instead of manually scrubbing through hours of recordings. This collapses time-to-resolution from days to minutes.

Question 5

What robots and sensors does Setaur work with?

Accepted Answer

Setaur works with any robot stack that publishes over ROS 2, MQTT, or NATS, and handles multi-modal sensor data including IMU, GPS, LiDAR, cameras, and custom sensors. The sensor payload accepts any JSON structure, so teams can capture and visualize any data shape without a fixed schema. Setaur runs on both ARM64 and AMD64, from embedded edge devices like Raspberry Pi and Jetson to servers.

Question 6

Does Setaur support ROS 2?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Setaur offers native ROS 2 integration and connects directly to ROS 2 topics with no additional middleware. Your ROS 2 nodes publish to standard topics and Setaur bridges them into its pipeline automatically. Setaur also supports MQTT and NATS, so teams that do not use ROS 2 are fully supported.

Question 7

How does Setaur connect to a robot?

Accepted Answer

Setaur runs a lightweight on-robot agent called setaur-edge. Your robot application sends sensor data and events to setaur-edge over MQTT, NATS, or ROS 2, and the agent streams them to the Setaur cloud. Provisioning is simple: register the robot in setaur.ai, install the setaur-edge on-robot agent, and view your first multi-modal data reading.

Question 8

How is Setaur different from Datadog and Sentry?

Accepted Answer

Datadog is an observability platform for cloud infrastructure and applications, monitoring metrics, traces, and logs across servers and services. Sentry is an error monitoring and crash reporting tool, surfacing exceptions and stack traces in code. Both transformed how software teams ship and debug, but neither is built for the multi-modal sensor data that robots produce, such as IMU, LiDAR, and camera streams. Setaur brings that observability experience, optimized for physical AI: it captures and replays the time-synchronized sensor data and events around every field failure, and delivers AI root-cause analysis in plain English.

Question 9

Who is Setaur built for?

Accepted Answer

Setaur is built for robotics engineering teams developing AMRs, autonomous systems, and humanoid robots. It is for teams that need structured observability, replay, and AI-powered debugging out of the box, and that want to turn lab and field failures into training data.
