samueljreeves Samuel Reeves is the Founder and CEO of FORT Robotics, the trust layer for physical AI. Based in Philadelphia, FORT gives autonomous machines the safety, security, and reliability to operate in the real world, serving hundreds of customers across logistics, agriculture, construction, transportation, and more. Prior to FORT, Samuel co-founded Humanistic Robotics, Inc., which built robotic systems to clear landmines and IEDs. That experience in high-stakes applications shaped a foundational conviction: for autonomous machines to reach their full potential, they need a platform purpose-built for trust. He founded FORT in 2018 to build it. Today, with more than 19,000 units in the field, a SIL 3-certified safety platform, and deep integrations across the physical AI ecosystem, FORT is defining what it means to scale autonomy responsibly. Samuel holds a BS in Economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.
