SnappyXO was founded in 2017 by Anurag Purwar, a professor at Stony Brook University. Our goal is to make Robotics affordable and fun for everyone without sacrificing the authenticity of the design and engineering experience. We believed that every student deserved to have a robot kit of their own so that they can continue to learn with it without worrying about breaking expensive equipment. SnappyXO makes that possible.
It is low-cost and craft-like feel lowering the barrier for experimentation. The product is also sold to informal STEM learning centers, such as museums, libraries, STEM campus, hackathons, and robotics competitions.
In 2026, SnappyXO joined the A+ Mobile Solutions, expanding its reach and continuing its mission to make hands-on robotics learning more accessible to students everywhere.
SnappyXO is an educational robotics product that revolutionizes the way students learn about robotics. We are passionate about making robotics accessible and enjoyable for all students, inspiring a love for STEM education. Our range of kits and components empowers students to construct their own robots and experiment with different designs, sensors, and actuators.
With SnappyXO, learning robotics becomes a hands-on and interactive experience. Our digital resources, including the SnappyXO web app, provide a dynamic platform for users to explore the world of robotics and design. The web app offers an engaging interface where users can virtually assemble their robot designs, experiment with different configurations, and refine their ideas before building them physically. This innovative approach allows for endless creativity and fosters a deeper understanding of robotics principles.
