Antioch raised a $8.5 million seed round to create simulation tools for a new generation of robot builders.

Antioch prepares to accelerate simulated testing for autonomous robots after raising $8.5M

Antioch Inc., a developer of cloud-based simulation software for artificial intelligence-enabled robots, has raised $8.5 million in funding to accelerate the development of more autonomous systems outside the physical world. Today’s round, which comes just four months after the startup raised $4.5 million in pre-seed funding, was led by A* and Category Ventures. Others, including […] The post Antioch prepares to accelerate simulated testing for …

Antioch raises funding to bring 'software speed' to robot development

Antioch says simulation can help robot developers overcome testing bottlenecks. Source: Antioch Validating a robot’s behavior in the real world typically means renting physical space, manually staging environments, and resetting hardware between every run, according to Antioch. It’s expensive, slow, and covers only a fraction of the scenarios a system will face in production, said the startup. Antioch today said it has raised $8.5 million to mov…
