Human Archive

We’re archiving the physical world for embodied intelligence by collecting and labeling aligned multimodal data. To build dexterous and perceptive robots that generalize robustly, we need massive amounts of real-world data across multiple modalities and environments. We have thought deeply about the fine line between biomimicry and its application to humanoid systems. Based on this research, we design and deploy custom hardware across residential and manufacturing settings. We then post-process

Similarity graph

Local clusters rerank extracted product concepts and description terms. The generated graph remains the fallback for sparse descriptions: offline reciprocal product-similarity graph: extracted concepts + description terms + bounded category/affiliation boosts. Minimum fallback score: 0; max competitors: 6.

Visibl Semiconductors

match 51

Visibl makes custom chip development dramatically faster and lower cost for hardware companies. Today, most hardware companies that need a custom chip have bad options: sign a massive contract with an incumbent like Broadcom, pay a traditional design house millions of dollars and wait 18+ months, or keep using off-the-shelf chips and FPGAs that are not optimized for their product's cost, power, performance, size, or manufacturability. We handle the full path from architecture and design through

MindPortal

match 51

MindPortal is a pioneering AI research company advancing human-AI interaction by enabling people to communicate with computers and AI assistants purely through thought. As an AI company, we focus exclusively on model development rather than hardware. Our models are designed to be general-purpose, adaptable across a wide range of applications. Our flagship development, MindSpeech, is the first supervised AI model to translate imagined speech into text, enabling direct thought-to-language communic

Praxis AI

match 49

Praxis captures the data physical AI is bottlenecked on: egocentric video, 3D scans, and multimodal capture from inside real industrial and residential environments. Embedded within publicly listed and unicorn-scale conglomerates, we reach 60k workers across 5 continents and 150+ environment types, supplying the real-world training data frontier labs and humanoid companies can't source anywhere else.
