专注于收集人类运动数据以训练人形机器人的初创公司Mecka AI正在进行新一轮融资,估值约5亿美元,由Sequoia Capital领投1。这是该公司在短短三个月内完成的第二轮融资1。
Mecka AI于2024年由Josh Gao、Mogen Cheng、Jason Chong和Duy Nguyen四位创始人创立1。三个月前,该公司宣布获得6000万美元融资,由Framework Ventures领投,Menlo Ventures、SV Angel和Kindred Ventures等机构参与1。公司的商业模式是付费让用户通过身体传感器和智能手机记录日常任务,如制作咖啡或修车等,以收集真实世界数据训练机器人1。Mecka的目标是在机器人领域复制Scale AI等公司为大语言模型所做的工作1。根据截至2024年6月初的预测,Mecka预计将在2026年底达到年运行率1亿美元1。
Mecka AI, a startup focused on collecting and analyzing human movement data to train humanoid robots, is raising capital at approximately $500 million valuation in a round led by Sequoia Capital 1. The funding represents the company's second major capital infusion within three months, following a $60 million Series A announced earlier in 2024 that was led by Framework Ventures and included participation from Menlo Ventures, SV Angel, and Kindred Ventures 1.
The company collects real-world training data by compensating individuals to record everyday tasks using body sensors and smartphones, capturing activities such as making coffee or repairing vehicles 1. Mecka aims to serve the robotics industry in a capacity comparable to what Scale AI provides for large language models 1. Founded in 2024 by Josh Gao, Mogen Cheng, Jason Chong, and Duy Nguyen, the startup had projected achieving a $100 million annual run rate by the end of 2026 as of early June 2024 1.
