Introducing the Open Axis Benchmark, a living benchmark engine for honest evaluation of robot manipulation models, built together with @openroboto. Robotic models evolve faster every month, while most benchmarks stay frozen. Models overfit to fixed task sets, scores stop reflecting real generalization, and that distorted signal misleads and holds back model evolution. Open Axis Benchmark isn't just larger. It lets evaluation itself keep pace with the models: each round locks a fresh task set drawn from the growing Axis Library, so models prove they can generalize instead of memorizing the test. Axis provides the data engine behind it, continuously producing tasks at the scale and diversity needed to genuinely test generalization. With Open Axis Benchmark, the same compounding loop that trains robots also powers how they are evaluated. Submit your model: Docs: See how it works ⬇️

The $AXIS Community Sale is officially oversubscribed. Nine months ago, we started building this from the ground up. Now, we have a Physical AI data engine generating 100,000+ data trajectories every day. We would not be here without the support and conviction of our loyal community members. You can still commit. The commitment window remains open until Sep 28, 13:00 SGT (05:00 UTC). Allocations are settled pro-rata across accepted commitments, and any USDC not accepted is auto-refunded. Probably nothing, or probably something?

We've put together some FAQs on KYC/KYB and wallet screening for the $AXIS Community Sale ⬇️ 🔗 Official portal: 1 - The "wallet not eligible" issue • All wallets go through strict AML screening. If you see "This wallet isn't eligible," your KYC/KYB is fine. The wallet itself is the issue. • Try another wallet you control with a clean transaction history. You do not need to redo KYC/KYB just because one wallet fails. • The Echo wallet is not required. Just use your normal self-custody wallet; Sonar supports most common wallet extensions and providers. • Note that even wallets that participated in the previous Sonar token sales may be marked ineligible. Hence, we recommend using a fresh wallet. 2 - Already committed but want to increase your amount? If you've already invested in the sale but want to add more, and the wallet you successfully committed with shows "This wallet isn’t eligible," you can fill out the form below. We'll coordinate with the Sonar team to get the wallet approved ASAP. 3 - Once your KYC/KYB and sale wallet checks are completed, there is no new verification later. No new KYC/KYB or liveness check at: • TGE • token claim • vesting The verification process happens at the sale stage. 4 - KYC/KYB can still be done until window closure on Sep 28 at 13:00 SGT We encourage you to complete KYC/KYB one day before the deadline, so you have extra time to resolve any KYC/KYB or wallet ineligible issues. 5 - Restricted jurisdictions Restricted areas include: China, United Kingdom, United States, Yemen, Libya, Palau, Mali, Afghanistan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Iraq, Lebanon, Myanmar, Somalia, Sudan, Russia, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Ukraine. 6 - Common KYC/KYB problems are simple document issues: • screenshots • blurry documents • proof of address older than 3 months • incorrect document type • incomplete verification Where available, Sonar allows up to 5 document re-uploads.

Announcing our commercial partnership with @FeagineRobotics Feagine builds soft embodied intelligence infrastructure—from bionic flexible robot arms to embodiment-free data and the Fi0 cross-embodiment foundation model. Through our enterprise-facing Axis Suite, we deliver customized data production pipelines—tailoring simulation task design and trajectory generation to the fine manipulation needs of Feagine's flexible manipulators, and supplying key training data for Fi0. This validates Axis Suite's end-to-end pipeline for hardware OEMs, spanning simulation environments, structured tasks, and scaled trajectory data. Moving forward, Axis and Feagine aim to bring cross-embodiment simulation data to the broader robotics industry, enabling intelligence to compound across every new embodiment.

Axis Robotics is the leading @base-native Compounding Data Engine for Physical AI. Today, we're opening pre-registration for the Axis Community Sale Program for our utility token, $AXIS, powered by Sonar by @echodotxyz. Below is an overview of the program specs, timeline, eligibility criteria, and participation process. 🧵

We just crossed 5M robot trajectories on @base, generated by 200K+ contributors worldwide. LLMs had the internet. We're building its physical-experience equivalent for robots. The future of robotics is being built onchain, on @base.

Our CEO sat down with @brian_armstrong in Singapore last week to show what we're building. Data is Physical AI's biggest bottleneck, and it's exactly what our data engine is built to solve. Scaling it this fast wouldn't be possible without @base's distributed network and accessible infrastructure. Base is the Hub for Physical AI. Together, we're forging the next generation of robots.

📢 Axis Creator Program Update The initial milestones for Axis Referral Multiplier are now much easier to reach: 5 qualifying referred Trajectories ➔ 1.05x 10 qualifying referred Trajectories ➔ 1.10x (Higher tiers continue from there!) New tasks drop daily at 20:00 SGT. We are increasing task volume while actively cracking down on scripted farming—giving real, new users a fair shot at completing them! Kaito or Axis Hub links both count. Just make sure your Axis account is linked through the Kaito Pulse extension.

Axis has been building alongside @privy_io from Day 0. As a pioneering Physical AI data engine in the Privy ecosystem, we’re proud to provide a friction-free onboarding experience for over 150,000 global contributors through social login. Together, we’ve achieved: ✱ Over 3.7M Trajectories Collected ✱ 42,000+ Hours of Trajectory Data ✱ 4,000+ Active Tasks Experience it yourself today:

Grateful to @cicada_mm for featuring us in their research blog. Dive into the full piece for our thinking on scaling data volume without sacrificing quality, how we prioritize robot embodiments, and what foundation-model scale actually means.
