Config gains support from Korea’s largest manufacturers

Friends, I’d like to share news from the physical AI space: Config (Seoul/San Jose) raised $27M in seed funding led by Samsung Venture, $34M in total.

- What it does: builds a data layer for robotic foundational models and adapts data to robot motion.
- Investors: Samsung, ZER01NE (Hyundai), LG Tech Ventures, SKT America and others.
- Scale: collected >100,000 hours of human motion; target 1M hours, platform growth to $10M ARR and launch of RaaS.

Why it matters: standardized, scalable data collection will lower development costs and accelerate robot adoption.

Do you think manufacturers are ready to build their own robotic models?
