Scissero Buys Robin AI’s Managed Services Team, Excluding Tech Platform

The move follows a failed funding round that pushed Robin AI to sell its services arm.

Overview

  • About 70–75 Robin AI staff will transfer to Scissero, taking the combined workforce to just over 150.
  • Robin AI’s technology platform is not part of the transaction, and its remaining tech group is negotiating with another company.
  • CEO Richard Robinson will assist the transition but will not join Scissero, while other Robin leaders such as Olivia Vaughan and Ryan Cattle will move over.
  • Scissero says the deal expands its client base to more than 100 companies and advances its regulated, AI-enabled services strategy.
  • Sky News reported the purchase was struck at a “knockdown” price, reflecting consolidation pressures after Robin AI’s failed fundraise and layoffs.
