Figure
Figure is a Humanoid company founded in 2022 and based in Sunnyvale, United States. It has raised $1.7B in total funding, most recently a Series C in 2025 at a $39B valuation.
Figure was founded in 2022 by Brett Adcock and is headquartered in Sunnyvale, United States. The company designs and builds humanoid robots optimized for repetitive industrial and in-home commercial work. Its product line includes Figure 02, deployed in BMW's Spartanburg automotive plant, and Figure 03, a redesigned third-generation platform unveiled in October 2025 with hardware optimized for in-home and warehouse pilots. Figure's proprietary Helix VLA—a Vision-Language-Action foundation model trained on the company's own teleoperator data—runs onboard the robots to enable whole-body control from natural-language commands and camera input. The company has raised $1.7 billion across funding rounds, including a $1 billion Series C announced in September 2025 at a $39 billion valuation, led by Parkway Venture Capital, Brookfield Asset Management, and NVIDIA. Figure operates as a private company with 201–500 employees.
Figure represents a significant entrant in the humanoid robotics sector, combining hardware design with in-house AI foundation models to enable autonomous task execution. The scale of capital attracted—$1.7 billion raised, including a $1 billion Series C from blue-chip industrial and technology investors—and deployment of operational robots in automotive manufacturing (BMW) and commercial pilots signal market validation for general-purpose humanoid systems. The integration of Helix VLA, a custom vision-language-action model, reflects a differentiated approach to embodied AI and positions Figure within a broader sector shift toward AI-first robotics architectures.
