Figure AI
Figure AI, Inc. is an American robotics company developing AI-powered humanoid robots. The company was founded in 2022 by Brett Adcock, also known for founding Archer Aviation and Vettery.
In 2022, the company introduced its prototype, Figure 01, a bipedal robot designed for manual labor, initially targeting the logistics and warehousing sectors.
In May 2023, the company raised $70 million from investors led by Parkway Venture Capital.
On 18 January 2024, Figure announced a partnership with BMW to deploy humanoid robots in automotive manufacturing facilities.
In February 2024, Figure AI secured $675 million in venture capital funding from a consortium that includes Jeff Bezos, Microsoft, Nvidia, Intel, and the startup-funding divisions of Amazon and OpenAI. The funding valued the company at $2.6 billion. It also announced a partnership with OpenAI. The collaboration includes OpenAI building specialized AI models for Figure's humanoid robots, allowing them to accelerate Figure's development timeline by enabling its robots to "process and reason from language".
In 2025, Figure ended its collaboration with OpenAI, stating that large language models are "getting smarter yet more commoditized".
In February, Figure AI announced Helix, the next generation of its humanoid robot.
On March 15, 2025, Figure AI introduced BotQ, a manufacturing facility aiming to produce 12,000 humanoids per year. Figure AI plans to progressively use its own humanoid robots to assist in building additional robots.
