Dyna Robotics

Dyna Robotics builds general-purpose robots driven by a proprietary embodied AI foundation model, designed to generalise and self-improve across varied environments while meeting commercial-grade performance requirements. Its first system, DYNA-1, is a dual-arm robotic platform reported to run 24/7 in real-world settings, with a task success rate of 99.4%. The company's stated emphasis is deployment at commercial scale rather than laboratory demonstrations.

The technical work spans embodied AI, robotics, AI foundation models, dual-arm manipulation, autonomous systems and self-improving machine learning. Target settings include factories, restaurants and hospitality, as well as broader commercial applications and daily task automation.

The company has raised over $140m and counts CRV and First Round among its backers. It was founded by repeat founders Lindon Gao and York Yang, previously of Caper AI, which was sold in a $350m transaction; co-founder Jason Ma is a former DeepMind research scientist. Dyna Robotics describes its mission as tackling the last frontier of AI.
