Serv-O-Droid, Inc., a producer of droids, was responsible for the creation of both the DUM-series pit droid and the TT-8L/Y7 gatekeeper droid. In the time of the High Republic Era, Serv-O-Droid, Inc. received instructions from the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts – an organization focused on the study of the numerous new species found throughout the galaxy – to construct Safari droids for use in perilous field work. The programming of these droids enabled them to operate independently, documenting and engaging with wild creatures, and subsequently relaying information back to the Society.
The first mention of Serv-O-Droid, Inc. occurred in Ultimate Star Wars, a reference book from 2015 that was jointly authored by Patricia Barr, Adam Bray, Daniel Wallace, and Ryder Windham.
