💫 WE’RE LIVE 💫
Today, Figure emerges from stealth.
We’re building autonomous humanoid robots.
One robot for every human on the planet.
Here's what the future will look like:

As a kid, I loved science fiction.
It let me dream of a better future.
The last 20 years I've been building technology companies to build a better future for humanity.
Today we're unveiling the most important technology for the future of humankind.
Advanced AI meets Robotics.

THE PROBLEM
Our labor force is shrinking.
As a result of the aging population, the labor supply is shrinking.
Predictions indicate 85 million job shortages by 2030.
If we want growth, we need more productivity - and this means more automation.

Our world is designed for the human form:
→ Arms and hands allow us to open doors and use tools.
→ Legs allow us to move efficiently, climb stairs, lift boxes, and more.
For 100 years, robots that can do human-like tasks have been unattainable
The robotics "holy grail".

THE SOLUTION
Figure believes robots built for a human environment will maximize our impact on labor shortages & improve lives.
Our robot resembles the human body - two legs, two arms, hands, and screen for a face.
= The universal interface in the physical world.

FIGURE'S VISION:
A future where humanoid robots work alongside us on a global scale.

WHY NOW FOR HUMANOID ROBOTS?
The last 10yrs have seen enormous advances in:
→ Compute & GPU
→ Energy & Power Density (Batteries, Motors, Power Electronics)
→ Bipedal Locomotion Control
→ Autonomy (Perception, Manipulation, SLAM, Prediction)
We believe now is the time.

MISSION, VISION, VALUES
The culture we build will make or break our future.
MISSION:
Expand human capabilities through advanced AI.
VISION:
Deploy autonomous humanoid robots on a global scale to solve challenges within the labor economy.

LONG-TERM ROADMAP
Humanoids will revolutionize a variety of industries:
→ Corp labor roles
→ Caring for the elderly
→ Individuals in the home
→ Building new worlds in space
Figure's early applications will be in corp roles where the labor shortages are the most severe.
