Check-Cap merger partner MBody AI adds outdoor robotics rights in six U.S. states

The company said the expansion beyond indoor automation includes exclusive U.S. distribution rights for outdoor cleaning robots in gaming and large hotels and resorts as the merger targets a third-quarter 2026 close.

Summary

Check-Cap Ltd. said merger partner MBody AI Corp. has widened its automation push from indoor operations to outdoor services, securing exclusive U.S. distribution rights for outdoor cleaning robots serving gaming venues and large hotels and resorts, including rights across Nevada, Arizona, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, California and Connecticut. The company said the move expands the range of tasks it can automate for existing properties and opens a new outdoor market. MBody AI said it has already run the system in a real-world pilot with a major U.S. gaming and hospitality operator, with that deployment expected to continue and expand. Its first outdoor cleaning offering is designed to coordinate multiple robot types from multiple brands through the MBody AI Orchestrator platform, letting machines work together on jobs a single robot type could not handle alone. The company added that outdoor robots for existing clients are also expected to share data with indoor robots through the same platform. The sales push is now being extended to more customers as MBody AI targets outdoor spaces as a broader growth channel. Beyond cleaning, the company said outdoor automation could later expand into lawn and golf course mowing and maintenance, parking lot cleaning and line striping, security monitoring, garbage collection, pool and pool deck cleaning, and exterior window cleaning. Check-Cap said the proposed business combination continues to advance. It updated investors on August 5, 2026, noting that it publicly filed a registration statement on Form F-1 with the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) on July 24, 2026 and still expects the merger to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to the Form F-1 becoming effective, final approval of the company’s Nasdaq initial listing application, satisfaction of all initial listing requirements and other customary closing conditions. Upon completion, the combined company is expected to keep trading on Nasdaq under the ticker MBAI.
