Intelligence Factory is a San Francisco robotics and embodied-AI startup (Y Combinator Spring 2026) building general-purpose foundation models for robotic manipulation. Its stated mission is "Human Intelligence for Robots" — deploying bots with human-level dexterity and reasoning in the real world. The team trains models on human demonstration data captured through custom gloves that record what a person sees, does, and feels, retargets that human motion onto robot motion, and deploys the resulting models across robot platforms from dexterous hands to grippers, with early focus on warehouses, grocery stores, and data centers. The company was founded by Yash Sinha (CEO) and Jalaj Shukla (CTO), with a team drawn from ETH Zurich, University of Pennsylvania, Harvard, NVIDIA, Formula 1, and Ansys. As of this profile it publishes no public API, SDK, developer documentation, or GitHub organization — it is an early-stage lead in the API Evangelist network.
