Builds humanoid robots for homes and workplaces

Figure builds general-purpose humanoid robots for physical work in homes and commercial facilities, using a human shape to operate in spaces designed for people. Its Helix AI system combines visual perception, language understanding, and movement control so robots respond to instructions and adapt to their surroundings. The electric robots use arms, hands, and legs to handle household chores or move and sort goods at industrial sites. Its commercial business works through customer deployment agreements that focus on physical tasks in factories and distribution facilities. Figure was founded in 2022 and is headquartered in San Jose, California.
