Announcing @xdofai: We’ve raised $70 million to build the core robotic infrastructure ecosystem for robot foundation models.

My cofounders Fred (@YideShentu), Nemo (@itsnemojin) and I have been pursuing the dream of general purpose robots for our entire lives. After work at Covariant, Meta and Tesla, it became clear to us that general purpose robots are coming, and we are building XDOF to help make them a reality.

For the last two years, we’ve been working behind the scenes to support major labs and companies deploying robots. In us, they have a partner with full-stack expertise, from hardware to operations to policy training.

As our first public contribution to the space, we are open-sourcing ABC-130K, the largest open source teleoperation dataset, in collaboration with our partners from UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, MIT and Amazon FAR.

Thank you to our customers, partners, collaborators and investors for your trust and conviction in us. Together, we can accelerate the future of robotics!

Join us for some delicious tacos at CoRL! 🌮😋
XDOF @xdofai Nov 2
Next week at CoRL: Free breakfast tacos, brought to you by XDOF!

We'll be stationed right outside the Hilton Austin with a mysteriously large number of tacos.

Is it hundreds? Thousands? There's only one way to find out.

Tues, Nov 10 from 9am-11am CT outside the Hilton Austin

While frontier models have show some impressive zero shot demos for robotics, there remains a wide specrum of physical capabilities where there remains a gap. Our goal with benchmarks.xdof.ai is to better understand these models in a target manner.

Stay tuned for more!
benchmarks.xdof.ai AI meets the real world — XDOF Robotics Leaderboard Compare AI models on Ember-0, the real-world robotics benchmark from XDOF Evaluations. Explore success rates, capabilities, cost, runtime, and recorded trials.

Announcing: the XDOF Robotics Leaderboard

Rigorous evaluations on real robots are an important and overlooked ingredient in solving general purpose robotics.

Our goal is to provide trusted evaluations, with meaningful benchmark design and thorough rollout execution that researchers can rely on.

The Robotics Leaderboard is where we’ll publish how frontier models perform against our benchmarks. We’ll update the leaderboard with every model we evaluate.

We found a way to scale humanoid control that reduces GPU-hours by more than 1000×.

Across 129,514 motions, SuperMimic surpasses the state of the art (128 GPUs, 7 days) with 1 GPU in 3 hours.
