10Beauty acquires Nimble
Overview
Boston-based company 10Beauty announced the acquisition of Nimble, adding its patents, manufacturing experience from over 6,000 units shipped, and key executives to its portfolio. This marks the second acquisition by 10Beauty in under two years, following the purchase of Clockwork in February 2025. The move consolidates three early US manicure robot startups into one dominant player, signaling the end of the industry's initial trial period as companies shift from storytelling to operational viability.
