Introducing Midcentury. We’re building the data and simulation infra for physical AI. Today, we’re coming out of stealth with a $15M Series Seed to scale robotics beyond polished demos. We’re already supporting frontier labs with: → The world’s largest egocentric dataset: 2M+ hours, 50+ environments, 20,000+ tasks → Matrix:...

Human action data has finally unlocked a scaling law for Physical AI. It’s time to join LLM researchers in taking the bitter lesson pill. Scaling robotics now requires internet-scale pretraining data and reliable simulation for evaluation + RL. We build the core infra for both.

Robotics can’t scrape the internet for action data. So we built the world’s largest and densest labeled egocentric dataset. 2M+ hours across 50+ environments and 20,000+ tasks, with hands visible in 90% of frames. Paired with SOTA action supervision: 3D hand + body pose, depth, tactile, and motion. Subtask and cycle annotations are frame-aligned with millisecond timestamps.

Real-world evaluation and RL don’t scale in robotics. Matrix is our agentic simulation platform for evaluating and improving robot policies thousands of times before deployment. It combines classical simulation, learned physics, and real-world data to close the sim-to-real gap. Massively parallel cloud simulation scales evaluation and RL.

We’ve brought together a world class team of researchers and operators from the Stanford AI Lab, OpenAI, DeepMind, NVIDIA, Scale AI, Invisible, and more. Our team has built datasets, benchmarks, and models at the frontier of robotics and AI, including RoboNet, GDPVal, and NVIDIA Cosmos 3. We’re a small, deeply technical team hiring across research, engineering, and operations.

Physical AI’s bottleneck is sim-to-real gap. $15M buys compute for better physics engines, crucial if they want robots that don’t quit when a table wobbles real-world style. Scaling demo bots needs robust data, not just polish. I’m intrigued by their stack!

"World's largest egocentric dataset" needs a number to mean anything - hours, scenes, embodiment diversity. Ego4D and Epic-Kitchens set the bar years ago and sim-to-real still faces on texture/contact physics, not dataset size alone.

Data and simulation solve the demo problem; they don't solve the deployment one. The moment a policy leaves the lab it needs a certificate somebody will sign, an incident process, and an insurer willing to price the harm none of which live in the training set. Physical AI hits the same wall every autonomy programme hits: permission to be wrong in public.

Scaling physical AI will take more than better models. It will take the infrastructure to connect data, simulation, and intelligent systems. This is where orchestration becomes increasingly important.

Scale alone is not enough for AI data. Quality and complexity are equally critical. Excited to support all of these for LLM developers with Snorkel AI Data-as-a-Service, and to share our new leaderboard! — Our decade-plus of research and work in AI data has a simple point: scale alone is not enough. AI success is all about the quality, complexity, and distribution of data—in addition to volume. We’re excited to be powering leading LLM developers with Snorkel AI Expert Data-as-a-Service, our white glove service for custom, expert-level AI datasets—and to now preview some of what we’re building via our new Expert Data Leaderboard (🔗 in 🧵) + upcoming OSS dataset releases! Snorkel Expert Data-as-a-Service is built to meet the rapidly evolving data needs of the agentic AI world—where success is built on the quality, complexity, and distribution of datasets, in addition to size and scale. This kind of high-quality, frontier AI data can only come from a union of technology and human expertise. With Snorkel Expert Data-as-a-Service, we’re powering frontier LLM developers across agentic, expert knowledge, reasoning, coding, multi-modal, and other task types via the combination of these two key components: - (1) The Snorkel Expert Network: A global team of subject matter experts focused wholly on specialized knowledge–spanning thousands of topics in STEM/academic, vertical/professional, and consumer/lifestyle domains. - (2) Snorkel AI Data Development Platform: Our unique programmatic data curation and quality control platform, accelerating and improving expert authoring and review through principled techniques developed over the last decade of R&D. Now: we’re incredibly excited to showcase some of the power of Snorkel Expert Data-as-a-Service via the new Snorkel Leaderboard—putting frontier models to the test in complex, agentic, and reasoning settings inspired by real industry scenarios (not esoteric puzzles)! We’ll be releasing new leaderboards and accompanying expert-verified open source datasets (coming soon!) regularly. To start, we’re sharing three initial ones in preview: - SnorkelFinance: Q&A over financial documents requiring agentic tool-calling and reasoning - SnorkelUnderwrite: Agentic insurance tasks requiring industry-specific reasoning and tool use - SnorkelSequences: Mathematical tasks requiring compositional multi-step reasoning

Everything you love about generative models — now powered by real physics! Announcing the Genesis project — after a 24-month large-scale research collaboration involving over 20 research labs — a generative physics engine able to generate 4D dynamical worlds powered by a physics simulation platform designed for general-purpose robotics and physical AI applications. Genesis's physics engine is developed in pure Python, while being 10-80x faster than existing GPU-accelerated stacks like Isaac Gym and MJX. It delivers a simulation speed ~430,000 faster than in real-time, and takes only 26 seconds to train a robotic locomotion policy transferrable to the real world on a single RTX4090 (see tutorial: The Genesis physics engine and simulation platform is fully open source at We'll gradually roll out access to our generative framework in the near future. Genesis implements a unified simulation framework all from scratch, integrating a wide spectrum of state-of-the-art physics solvers, allowing simulation of the whole physical world in a virtual realm with the highest realism. We aim to build a universal data engine that leverages an upper-level generative framework to autonomously create physical worlds, together with various modes of data, including environments, camera motions, robotic task proposals, reward functions, robot policies, character motions, fully interactive 3D scenes, open-world articulated assets, and more, aiming towards fully automated data generation for robotics, physical AI and other applications.
