Medikal Africa's parent company ZeroX Intelligence partners with RoboLabs to bring advanced autonomous disinfection technology to African healthcare facilities, working alongside Medikal AI to reduce healthcare-associated infections.
ZeroX Intelligence, the parent company of Medikal Africa, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with RoboLabs Elektronik Otomasyon to introduce cBot, an advanced UV-C disinfection robot, into African healthcare facilities. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our mission to deploy intelligent, life-saving technologies across the continent.
The cBot platform works in synergy with Medikal AI to create a comprehensive infection control ecosystem. While Medikal AI assists clinicians in making evidence-based decisions to reduce antimicrobial resistance and prevent infections, cBot ensures physical environments are thoroughly disinfected, eliminating 99.99% of harmful microorganisms.
This dual approach—combining AI-powered clinical decision support with autonomous disinfection technology—represents a holistic solution to infection control in African healthcare facilities, starting with a pilot program in Rwanda.
cBot is a state-of-the-art autonomous disinfection robot that leverages UV-C sterilization technology to eliminate 99.99% of harmful microorganisms in healthcare environments. Available in both Classic Auto and Manual models, cBot integrates advanced navigation systems, autonomous scheduling, and real-time monitoring to deliver consistent, auditable disinfection results.
When deployed alongside Medikal AI, cBot becomes part of a comprehensive infection prevention strategy. Medikal AI guides clinicians on appropriate antibiotic use and treatment protocols, while cBot ensures that healthcare environments remain sterile, reducing the risk of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) that contribute to antimicrobial resistance.
Unlike traditional manual disinfection methods, cBot operates autonomously, reducing human exposure to pathogens while ensuring thorough coverage of high-risk areas. The robot's intelligent mapping capabilities allow it to navigate complex hospital layouts, operating rooms, ICUs, and patient wards with precision.
This partnership between ZeroX Intelligence (Medikal Africa's parent company) and RoboLabs aims to strengthen hygiene standards, patient safety, and operational efficiency across African healthcare systems. By deploying cBot technology alongside Medikal AI's clinical decision support, we're addressing infection control from both prevention and environmental perspectives.
The Rwanda pilot program will serve as a proof-of-concept for broader deployment across the continent, with plans to expand to healthcare facilities in Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana, and South Africa in subsequent phases. Each deployment will integrate cBot with Medikal AI, creating a comprehensive infection control ecosystem.
"We are proud to bring cBot's proven infection-control technology to African healthcare systems. Working with ZeroX Intelligence and Medikal Africa, we aim to deliver safe, efficient, and auditable disinfection solutions that protect patients and staff while supporting comprehensive infection prevention strategies."

The introduction of cBot technology, working in tandem with Medikal AI, represents a paradigm shift in how African healthcare facilities approach infection control. While Medikal AI helps clinicians make informed decisions about antibiotic prescribing and treatment protocols, cBot ensures that physical environments are consistently sterilized, reducing the transmission of resistant pathogens.
This integrated approach—combining AI-powered clinical intelligence with autonomous disinfection—addresses infection control from multiple angles: preventing inappropriate antibiotic use through Medikal AI's guidance, and eliminating environmental pathogens through cBot's UV-C sterilization.
Enhanced patient confidence through visible, measurable safety protocols, combined with lower operational costs and improved outcomes, positions this technology partnership as a cornerstone of modern African healthcare infrastructure. As part of ZeroX Intelligence's broader Innovation Lab initiatives, this partnership aligns with our vision of leveraging autonomous systems, robotics, and AI to solve Africa's most pressing challenges in healthcare, agriculture, and infrastructure.
