You've never seen robots as performant, as reliable and as useful as this....

@EkaRobotics has raised a $150M Series A.

Generality v/s Performance is the fundamental tension at the frontier of robotics. Generality without performance is just a prototype. Performance without generality is just a single-purpose tool.

Customers shouldn’t have to choose. Eka breaks the tradeoff. Powered by our Vision-Force-Action (VFA) model, we deliver the performance and versatility customers need to put robots to work every day.

Eka is built on three convictions:
⚡️Force is the language of manipulation.
🚀 Reinforcement learning is how dexterous manipulation scales.
🎂 System 1—fast, reliable physical execution—is the bottleneck to solve.

With this funding, we will scale our model and accelerate customer deployments.

Grateful to be building alongside a dream team and investors who share our ambition.

Huge congrats Andrew and team on launching Glimpse and bringing Visual thinking to life!

Spent years watching models ace a single image and completely whiff on anything that moves or changes angle. Today we’re fixing that.

Try Glimpse now, our first visual thinking model with competitive frontier performance compared to Astra on key public visual reasoning benchmarks.

There is no better team in the world to solve multimodal inference!!! Excited for what’s to come

Today is a meaningful day for me.

Seven years ago, as an undergraduate, I started researching efficient generative AI. At the time, few people saw generative AI becoming something people would use every day. GANs were still the frontier. Then came diffusion. Now we are beginning to build models that can generate and reason about worlds.

I kept thinking about what would have to change before these models felt practical. They needed to respond quickly, be affordable to run, and work reliably.

That work led to Nunchaku, and eventually to Nunchux.
Today, we’re launching @NunchuxAI.

None of this would be possible without my cofounders, @junyanz89 @syn7xavier and Zhekai Zhang, and the extraordinary team building Nunchux. Thank you to our early users, @emergencecap, @e14fund, and our angel investors for believing in us early.

We’re hiring. If this problem feels like yours too, come build with us!
