  Figure AI

  Humanoid robots powered by Helix, an in-house vision-language-action model.

  Figure AI builds general-purpose humanoid robots (Figure 01–03) driven by Helix, its proprietary vision-language-action model that fuses perception, language, and learned control. Figure 03, announced in 2025, targets the home and broader applications; earlier models were piloted in BMW's automotive manufacturing.

  AI insight: Its Helix vision-language-action model can drive two robots at once, and Figure pulled out of an OpenAI deal to build its in-house AI stack.

  Physical Intelligence

  General-purpose foundation models that aim to control any robot to do any task.

  Physical Intelligence is a San Francisco lab building general-purpose AI for the physical world. Its π0 (pi-zero) vision-language-action model, built on a pretrained VLM and trained across many robot embodiments, can perform dexterous tasks like folding laundry. The company open-sourced π0's code and weights via its openpi repository.

  AI insight: Unusually for a frontier robotics lab, it open-sourced its flagship — π0's code and weights ship in the public openpi repo on GitHub.

  Sanctuary AI

  Phoenix, a general-purpose humanoid robot driven by the Carbon AI control system.

  Sanctuary AI builds Phoenix, a general-purpose humanoid robot for work, powered by Carbon, a hybrid cognitive control system that blends symbolic reasoning, large language models, and reinforcement learning to mimic human cognitive subsystems. Phoenix features highly dexterous hands and can be taught new tasks in under 24 hours.

  AI insight: Its Carbon control system is a hybrid architecture — symbolic reasoning plus LLMs and RL — cutting Phoenix task onboarding to under a day.

  Skild AI

  A single, omni-bodied foundation model designed to control any robot.

  Skild AI builds Skild Brain, a general-purpose robotics foundation model intended to control diverse embodiments — quadrupeds, humanoids, tabletop arms, mobile manipulators — without prior knowledge of a robot's exact form. It pretrains on large-scale simulation and internet video, then post-trains on targeted real-world data for customer deployments.

  AI insight: Pitches an "omni-bodied" brain: one model meant to control quadrupeds, humanoids, and arms it never trained on, pretrained on sim and video.

  Wayve

  End-to-end embodied AI for self-driving that scales across any vehicle.

  Wayve builds AV2.0, an embodied-AI approach to automated driving that replaces hand-engineered perception-planning-control pipelines with a single end-to-end neural network mapping raw camera and radar input to driving commands. It develops the GAIA generative world model for training and the LINGO language model for interpretable driving. Backed by NVIDIA, Microsoft, and SoftBank, and partnered with Uber.

  AI insight: Champions AV2.0: one end-to-end neural net from sensors to steering, with no hand-coded perception or planning modules — trained on GAIA.
