CloudMinds Official Response
May 29, 2020
Recently, the US Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), has announced that it will add CloudMinds affiliated Cayman Island, Beijing and Hong Kong companies to the entity list. CloudMinds U.S. entity, CloudMinds Technology, Inc., is not being added to the entity list. We’re disappointed to hear of the U.S. government’s decision because it does not reflect CloudMinds products, technologies, intended applications, business development and social responsibility practices.
Since establishment in 2015, CloudMinds has abided by the laws and regulations of relevant countries and regions, and has more than 1,500 patent applications for 5G, artificial intelligence, blockchain and robot intellectual property through independent research and development.
All the technologies, products and services of CloudMinds are developed for civilian use. We provide contactless service robots for retail facilities, offices, shopping malls, and other private enterprise facilities. In addition, in the past few months, CloudMinds has garnered worldwide recognition for its contributions in supporting the fight against COVID-19 in China and beyond.
CloudMinds will continue to comply with BIS regulation, and will continue to make every effort to provide customers with the world’s leading intelligent cloud robot products and services.

Digital.com - CloudMinds was selected “THE BEST ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE COMPANIES OF 2021”
Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered software is becoming increasingly important for organizations looking to remain agile and competitive in the digital space. Both large enterprises and small and medium-sized businesses alike need AI solutions that can help them respond to a rapidly changing market and deliver an outstanding user experience to their customers.
The AI company selection is the result of more than 40 hours of research conducted by the digital.com website on more than 170 AI companies online. The selection, along with the site's guide to AI organizations, will help small businesses and startups find the best AI company for their business.
Founded in 2015, CloudMinds’ focus is on operating an open-source, cloud-based architecture for the enhancement of robotics. For the most part this means physical robots like the kind you might find on a factory floor, but CloudMinds also produces robots for human services and security applications, and it anticipates selling domestic humanoid robots by 2025. In order to run secure AI from the cloud, CloudMinds works through its own Virtual Backbone Network (VBN), a proprietary high-speed global intranet. Despite this specificity of focus, CloudMinds does go beyond the core mission of robotic operation. One form this takes is an AI digital avatar called Cloudia, which interacts naturalistically with customers and is billed as a potential choice for the “face of your brand.” The company also provides smart vending machines and other AI-driven tools, like spectrometers and temperature measurement systems. CloudMinds currently primarily serves clients in the financial, healthcare and energy sectors.
What Customers Are Saying
Because CloudMinds’ partnerships tend to be with large-scale organizations, institutions and industrial firms — all of which are unlikely to comment publicly — the company doesn’t attract online customer reviews. It has certainly attracted considerable notice as an innovator from tech-focused press outlets, such as The Silicon Review.
