PHILLY,
MEET AWEBOT.
Something strange is roaming the streets of Philadelphia.
We could tell you what it is.
But where's the fun in that?
For now, just know this:
It isn't lost.
It isn't delivering anything.
And it's here for a reason.
You saw it too?

Our streets are beginning to fill with technology designed to make life faster, easier and more convenient. But AWEBOT has a different job.
It doesn't deliver groceries.
It doesn't deliver dinner.
It doesn't deliver packages.
It delivers surprise. Curiosity. Connection. Awe.
