AI infrastructure

Sensei

Sensei helps robotics companies scale and outsource their training data collection. Our hardware platform enables the collection of human-demonstration data at a tenth of the cost and twice the speed of current teleop approaches. Our software platform acts like Scale AI for robotics data: a large network of paid human operators use our low-cost collection platform to fulfill data-generation requests.

Intelligence Factory

match 71

Robotics is the new paradigm. With hardware converging, Intelligence is the biggest bottleneck. Our world was built for humans and we're giving robots the ability to reason and act like us. The way we learn any task - by seeing, doing, and feeling - is how we train robots. We're building general intelligence that works on any robot and fits seamlessly within our world.

Visibl Semiconductors

match 53

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
