Nvidia and Samsung Join Mecka AI's $60M Robotics Data Round

Startups12 days ago

The firm's annualized sales topped $100M in June and are projected to reach $300M by December. Mecka earns this revenue by employing individuals to wear body sensors while performing tasks such as repairing cars or making coffee to create training sets for humanoid robots. New strategic backers joining the venture include Nvidia, Samsung, Microsoft's M12 venture fund, and Qualcomm Ventures, as well as operators Tony Xu and Frank Slootman.

These investments are part of a $60M Series B round led by Sequoia that brings the company's total funding to over $120M. The capital will scale a computer vision lab that converts raw motion footage into structured training signals and supports the production of custom multi-sensor capture hardware. The startup aims to build the first internet-scale dataset for physical AI to serve as a deployment layer for general purpose robotics.
