Partner with ARC
Your space. Our system. Their new favorite reason to walk through the door.
AI-powered robotic massage that runs itself. One 80-square-foot room earns your venue $1–2K a month, fully automated: no staff, no capital, no operational risk. We place the system, run it, maintain it and support it.
Case studies
Three venues. Three routines forming.
A spa, a residential tower and a performance gym, each with a room ARC runs. The figures are from ARC booking records; each document is two pages.

No staff. No construction. Revenue from day one.
Eighty square feet, a standard outlet and Wi‑Fi. We deliver, install and configure the system at no cost to the venue, and it is earning the day it is switched on.
- Room
- 8 × 10 ft, or any 80 square feet with a door
- Power
- 120V standard outlet
- Network
- Wi‑Fi or Ethernet
- Staff
- None. Your team hands out a bodysuit and points the way

The partnership
We run the program for you.
ARC operates, maintains and supports the system, end to end. Your venue provides the room and the introduction; everything else, from the booking that takes 60 seconds to the phone call at 9 PM, is ours.
We operate it.
Booking, payment and memberships run through ARC, with an AI receptionist that answers the phone.
- Online booking and payment
- Memberships and single sessions
- The AI receptionist, around the clock
- Launch marketing and signage
We maintain it.
The machine is ours to own and to keep running: monitoring, software, service and supplies.
- Delivery, install and configuration at no cost
- Remote monitoring and software updates
- Maintenance and troubleshooting
- Bodysuit inventory
We support it.
Members talk to ARC, not your front desk. Your team is trained on the handoff and the FAQs, and that is the whole job.
- Member support and follow-up
- Team training on booking and FAQs
- An on-site champion, named together
- If it does not work for your space, we remove it
What you get
- A share of every session, paid monthly, with no capital and no payroll behind it.
- Retention. A premium amenity members use weekly, and a reason to renew.
- Foot traffic. First-time visitors who come for a session and see the rest of your space.
- A premium edge. The amenity that sets your venue apart in a tour, a listing or a renewal conversation.
What your team does
- Introduces the room to members, residents or clientele.
- Hands out a laundered bodysuit and points the way.
- Displays ARC signage and names an on-site champion.
- That is all. No scheduling, no payroll, no maintenance calls.
The economics
Turn 80 square feet into your most profitable amenity.
All you need is an 8 × 10 room and a standard outlet. We handle the rest, and the room pays from its first month.
Based on utilization across ARC venues. Most venues sit in the $1–2K range; the upper end reflects high-utilization locations. Your venue's specific economics are provided during the consultation.
More traffic
A reason for people who are not members yet to walk in.
A recovery session is a door. At Equinox, an Aescape session comes with a day pass, and the table has brought 19,000 non-members through the clubs' doors to try it. At ARC venues the same thing happens at a local scale: sign-ups from people who had never been inside, bookings made online without touching the front desk, and listings on ClassPass and ResortPass in the pipeline.
Every one of them sees the rest of your space on the way to the room.
Equinox figure is Aescape-reported. ARC figures from booking records, June to September 2026.
The use cases
Built for premium spaces.
ARC brings a curated suite of recovery amenities to your space, with Aescape as the centerpiece. Add the Sun Portal, or let members choose the services they want. Either way, a premium amenity that earns, with zero capital outlay.
Luxury residential buildings
Residential sells units and renews leases.
Residents use it daily. Prospects notice it on tours. It signals a building that is ahead of the curve, without adding a line item to the operating budget.
Premium fitness clubs
The recovery zone becomes your highest-revenue square footage.
Complements cold plunge, sauna and compression. ARC is the premium tier members will actually pay for, driving session frequency and retention.
Wellness centers and med spas
A recovery service with zero staffing.
Runs 14+ hours a day, never calls in sick, books in 60 seconds. Recovery between visits with no front desk involved. May be HSA/FSA eligible with a Letter of Medical Necessity.
Private members clubs
Exclusivity your members can actually use every day.
AI-powered deep-tissue recovery is the kind of amenity that justifies the dues. No front desk, no waiting. Available whenever your members are.

The technology
Premium and proven.
ARC operates Aescape robotic massage systems, the platform already deployed at Equinox, Life Time, Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton. Aescape technology is licensed, not owned, by ARC.
Booked in 60 seconds.
Members book online or walk up and scan a QR code at the table. No app to download, no front desk, no scheduling load on your team.
Personalized by a scan.
A 1.1 million-point 3D body scan maps every session, and the pressure adapts as it works. Settings are saved, so each visit picks up where the last one left off.
Proven at scale.
Named a TIME Best Invention of 2024, with more than 175,000 massages delivered across 130+ machines nationwide.
Powered by Aescape
Beyond the session
Recovery starts with the table. It does not have to stop there.
Aescape is the draw, but ARC venues can offer more. The Sun Portal, a two-minute full-body red light booth, runs on the same zero-staffing model with its own revenue share. Members can book one service or both.
- Sun Portal
- Two minutes, whole body, front and back at once. Pay at the terminal, no staff needed.
- Also available
- Compression and infrared options. Ask about pairing.
