Fitt Insider


Apr 23, 2024

Today, I’m joined by Eric Litman, Founder and CEO of Aescape.

Underwhelmed by traditional massage therapy, Eric created Aescape. Using AI robotics, the company provides a precise, consistent, fully automated bodywork experience. 

In this episode, we discuss Aescape’s seven-year journey to launch.

We also cover:

• Partnering with Equinox
• The future of human-robot interactions
• Creating an on-demand massage marketplace
