Founder @ Teacher Robot

About

Rauf Odilov is a serial entrepreneur and AI expert with over 10 years of experience launching and scaling companies at the intersection of education, finance, and robotics. He founded his first venture, Cherry School, at the age of 17 to provide tutoring and academic support services. He later founded a predictive AI startup focused on financial forecasting, applying machine learning to help individuals and businesses better plan their financial futures. His passion for robotics led him to create ATHES, a general-purpose humanoid robotics company, and then APEX Cybernetics, which builds utility robots—such as autonomous lawn mowers and floor-cleaning robots—for the B2B market, partnering with OEMs for scalable production and distribution. Currently, Rauf is the founder and CEO of AI Tutoring Robot, a consumer robotics company building humanoid teacher robots designed to support families and elementary schools with personalized, hands-free, AI-powered tutoring at home. Rauf studied across the globe in Malaysia and Germany before completing his undergraduate degree in Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse. He also earned an AI certification from Stanford University. With over 6 years of experience in AI, machine learning, NLP, computer vision, and robotics, Rauf has designed and built several robots—including in his university dorm room.
