Use cases

Where robots can be trained

A robot learns the work where the work happens. These are the environments we operate in and the tasks we capture — real people, real sites, real failure and recovery, at volume.

Skills, not just settings

The manipulation skills that cut across every environment

Environments differ, but the underlying skills repeat. We capture each of these across many contexts so a policy learns the skill rather than the setting.
