About Robocurve

Robocurve is a San Francisco Public Benefit Corporation (Y Combinator Summer 2026) that independently evaluates how well frontier AI models control physical robots and publishes reproducible scores for labs, policymakers and the public. The company operates robot hardware and real-world test environments, releases open-source harnesses such as Inspect Robots, and funds academic teams building benchmarks; within months of incorporation its research had millions of views and researchers from 200-plus institutions had signed up. Unlike vendor demos, Robocurve sets its own evaluation agenda so frontier labs do not control methodology or public results. In September 2026 Robocurve raised a $10 million seed led by Initialized Capital, with Notable Capital, Decasonic, Y Combinator, Halcyon Futures and others, to expand the research team, cover more robot embodiments and support open academic benchmarking.
