One researcher candidate: “I am more aligned with Sarah on robotics philosophy than with most roboticists.”
@saranormous led Sunday’s seed round in March 2024. What’s striking from day one is how deeply she went into understanding robotics from first principles, instead of relying on loose analogies and what “sounds right.”
Sarah has been consistently supportive since then, with the highest level of integrity and intellectual honesty. She is always available (yes, I don’t think she sleeps), with the most genuine and helpful opinions.
Grateful to be building with her!

We found a general recipe for Solves: scale pretraining, then hill-climb with minimal in-house data.
For the first time, one fine-tuning example can teach a new behavior that generalizes. Below: 4 folding strategies, learned from one example each and tested on held-out setups.
