We invested in @Apptronik because we believe humanoid robots won’t just join the workforce - they’ll transform it.
They just closed a 403M Series A with Google, Mercedes-Benz, ARK Invest, and more to bring Apollo to life: a general-purpose humanoid built for logistics, manufacturing, and beyond.
This is real-world embodied AI.
We’re talking about robots walking factory floors, packing boxes, responding to disasters and eventually helping in homes, hospitals, elder care, and more.
The team has roots at NASA, DeepMind announced a strategic partnership, and Apollo is already scaling with customers like Mercedes-Benz, Jabil, and GXO.
The world needs more hands.
Apptronik is building them.
