ScaledForm

A humanoid robot for every home.

ScaledForm is building a useful, friendly bipedal robot. It begins by doing real work for businesses. The goal is one in every house.

The plan

Start with work. End up at home.

  1. 01

    Build an expensive humanoid that does real work

    Form 1 starts on off-the-shelf bipedal hardware, with our own hands, safety system and AI on top. It's for businesses that need a small number of robots doing real jobs, supported closely.

  2. 02

    Use that to build our own

    Every robot at work teaches us something. We bring the critical parts in-house one at a time: the AI and hands, then the actuators, then the whole body. Each step makes the robot cheaper and more capable, so it can work in more places.

  3. 03

    Use that to build one for the home

    Volume production, a price a household can justify, and a robot that's safe and pleasant to live with.

  4. 04

    Make every robot better along the way

    One brain across every robot we make. What one learns, they can all learn, and each generation makes the next one better.

Design

Built to be comfortable around.

A robot you live with can't be one you're wary of. Every decision we make gets checked against these rules.

  • Friendly, not human

    Rounded and soft-shelled, with a simple expressive face. No realistic skin, nothing uncanny.

  • Never imposing

    Designed to be smaller and lighter than most adults, so it never looms over you.

  • Calm

    Quiet and slow around people, with a status light that shows what it's about to do.

  • Safe by design

    Padded surfaces and force limits at every joint, and a robot that stops when you tell it to.

  • Honest

    It will say when a person is helping control it, and never pretend to be a person.
