About Sanctuary AI Founded in 2018, Sanctuary builds humanoid robots and a novel control system for them that integrates symbolic logic and reasoning with data-driven robot foundation models.

We use that data to train multimodal robot foundation models. Because our systems are vertically integrated, we can design, deploy, and refine at scale. Our mission is to create the world's first human-like intelligence in general-purpose robots. Recruiting and Employment Agency Notice: Recruitment and hiring is conducted internally by Sanctuary AI.
