1X, robotic startup backed by OpenAI, receives $100M in funding


1X Technologies has deployed one AI android for enterprises and plans to bring another to homes for domestic chores.

Over the years, the company developed its tech, including the world’s highest torque torque-to-weight drive servo motor for mimicking soft, organic muscle movement, and started shipping to enterprise customers. With this round, which takes 1X’s total capital raised to nearly $137 million, the company plans to build on its work to support existing enterprise customers as well as bring Neo into the consumer market. We’re convinced 1X with their NEO androids will play a crucial role in the pioneering steps towards the first forays of our technological and human future,” Ted Persson, partner at EQT Ventures, said in a statement.
