Why create robot intelligence for just one hand, when we could have it learn from many?
GEN-1, our latest embodied foundation model, now supports a broad range of end effectors from 5-finger hands, to specialized tools, and everything in between.

- GEN-1 ran 2 live demos across 2 different robots at Automate 2026 this year: folding and packing boxes, and servicing robot vacuums. What resonated most wasn't just that the models could do the tasks — it was that they had the intelligence to recover in real time when things
- Come see live demos of GEN-1 doing dexterous manipulation tasks at #Automate2026 — the largest automation show in America, with our friends @Universal_Robot and @FlexivRobotics 📍 UR @ at Booth #1250 📍 Flexiv @ Booth #2844 For early access to our models, please reach out 📧
- A jaw-on-the-floor moment for the whole team was when we had taught the robot to pick up a baggie and shake a usb-brick out with the left hand. During one rollout, it decided to do it with the right hand—and we all stopped. We were stunned, because no one taught it to do that.
