A generative, ultra-fast physics platform for robotics and embodied AI.

An open-source simulation platform for general-purpose robotics and embodied-AI learning, rebuilt from the ground up in pure Python. Combines a unified multi-physics engine, a photorealistic renderer, and a generative data engine that turns natural-language prompts into simulation scenes and training data.

Commercial robot foundation models for autonomous, round-the-clock dexterity.

Dyna Robotics builds general-purpose robots powered by DYNA-1, an embodied AI foundation model aimed at commercial-grade, fully autonomous dexterity. In a public demo, DYNA-1 folded 800+ napkins over a continuous 24-hour run at a reported 99.4% success rate with no human intervention. The Redwood City company targets restaurant, grocery, and other service deployments.

Embodied foundation models that train robots to do real physical work.

Generalist is a frontier AI lab building general-purpose foundation models for the physical world, founded in 2024 by researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and Boston Dynamics. Its hardware-agnostic GEN-1 model targets dexterous, reliable manipulation across many robot embodiments — factories, warehouses, and homes. The company frames its mission simply: 'we train robots that work.'

Open-source models, datasets, and tools for real-world robotics in PyTorch.

Hugging Face's robotics stack — pretrained policies (ACT, Diffusion Policy, SmolVLA, Pi0), shared datasets, simulation environments, and designs for low-cost manipulator kits. Aims to be the 'Transformers for robotics', lowering the barrier to training and sharing robot-learning models.

Physical AI robots for warehouse manipulation and truck loading.

Dexterity builds 'Physical AI' robots that handle complex manipulation in logistics — including DexR, a truck-loading robot, and Mech, a two-armed mobile 'superhumanoid' that lifts up to 132 lb. Its Foresight world model is trained on over 100 million autonomous actions run in production. Customers include FedEx, UPS, GXO, and Sumitomo.

Proxie, an AI-powered mobile manipulator built for human workplaces.

Cobot (Collaborative Robotics) makes Proxie, a wheeled, two-armed autonomous mobile manipulator designed to move carts, totes, and boxes alongside people rather than replace them. It deliberately avoids costly bipedal humanoid designs, combining omnidirectional mobility with AI-driven situational awareness. Early customers include Maersk, Mayo Clinic, Moderna, and Owens & Minor.

No-code AI robotic arms built for US manufacturing.

Standard Bots makes the Core (formerly RO1), a six-axis collaborative robot arm programmed through no-code software — drag, tap, and teach, with no engineers required. A transformer-based model lets the arm learn intricate tasks by human demonstration, targeting CNC machine tending, palletizing, welding, and pick-and-place. The arms are designed and built in the US.

One autonomy brain for all robots.

FieldAI builds embodiment-agnostic foundation models that act as a general-purpose 'brain' for robots, letting a single autonomy stack drive many different robot bodies. Its risk-aware Field Foundation Models use a Belief World Model to operate in dynamic, unmapped environments without GPS or predefined trajectories. The company targets construction, industrial, energy, mining, and other real-world deployments.

Atlas humanoid, Spot quadruped, and Stretch logistics robots from the dynamics pioneer.

The Hyundai-owned robotics company behind the Atlas humanoid, the Spot quadruped, and the Stretch warehouse robot. The production electric Atlas debuted at CES 2026, with its first fleets committed to Hyundai's Metaplant and Google DeepMind and factory deployment in Savannah targeted by 2028. Spot and Stretch are already sold commercially for industrial inspection and logistics.

Quadruped and humanoid robots you can buy at consumer prices.

Unitree Robotics builds quadruped robots (Go2, B2), humanoid robots (G1, H1, R1), robotic arms, and LiDAR systems you can actually order today. It shipped more than 5,500 humanoids in 2025 — roughly a third of global sales — and turned its first profit the same year, rare in a field of pre-revenue rivals.
