An engineer named Rusty leads a team of rescue robots. Together, they invent their way out of difficult situations.

Rusty Rivets inspires an interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts through the accomplishments of two young inventors. Each episode presents the characters and their team of robots with a problem that must be solved, leading Rusty and Ruby to design and build a robot of some sort to help. They gather ideas, suggest how different moving parts will work, and use various tools (their small robot friends) to get the job done. The show presents the basic workings of the engineering process without getting too technical for a young audience. Themes of perseverance, determination, and resourcefulness stand out within the kid-friendly content.
