About

We got some renders when the company came out of stealth back in March, but beyond that, the Figure 01 robot hasn’t traveled beyond its office walls. The company did, however confirm with TechCrunch that its assembled robot (bottom half+top half) took its first step ahead of its one year anniversary. This morning the company announced a sizable vote of confidence in the form of a $70 million Series A. Figure is still quite young, having only celebrated its first birthday on May 20, but it’s been aggressively hiring talent from places like Boston Dynamics, Tesla, Apple and automotive manufacturers.
