Our take

Humanoid robots are quickly moving from sci-fi to reality, with big tech companies racing to bring them into workplaces, and soon, our homes. It's a booming market, and Figure is one of the big names in the game.

Figure builds human-like robots that are powered by advanced AI that can walk, see and even understand natural language. Its latest model, the Figure 02, is piloting in a BMW factory, and its in-house AI system, Helix lets these robots perform complex tasks from simple voice prompts.

Interestingly, in 2025 the company severed a previous relationship with OpenAI, claiming a major breakthrough in robot intelligence. This means Figure is now working completely solo, but this hasn't slowed it down. It has secured some major commercial deals and an impressive valuation, and is certainly one to keep a close eye on as it develops.
