Proception

Startup in Palo Alto, California, building humanoids that do useful jobs.

In case you don’t know where to find the best robot hands, we’ve put up a sign for you.

Final day at ICRA, and ProHand is still hard at work 💪. Today it’s lifting a 15 kg dumbbell as part of its training. Building a useful robotic hand takes strength, precision, and plenty of practice. #ProHand

[Jay@Proception @JayLiStanford]

Great to see people’s grin on face when they shake hands with our ProHand.
Come see it in person at ICRA, booth 169

[Jay@Proception @JayLiStanford]

So much fun interacting with ProHand at ICRA. Come check it out in booth 169

Looks like I am having a twin brother on X 😂

Today we're releasing Perceptron Mk1: frontier video and embodied reasoning.

2026. All hands 🙌

No fluff. No bureaucracy.

If you’re an A-player, want real ownership, and thrive when things are hard—read on.

Big corp too boring?
Want to build robots that actually work?

We’re a lean team of robotic engineers at @proceptionAI , operating in survival mode and pushing toward real humanoid capability. Every person matters. Every contribution ships.

This is not for everyone.
But if you want to build the future of humanoids with your own hands, we want you.

@iamRezaSayar @measure_plan Really appreciate the shoutout! Always fun to see people notice the details 🙌

Breakthroughs don’t always come from big teams. This motor was designed and built end-to-end by one engineer. Sometimes the right talent is all you need.

[Jay@Proception @JayLiStanford]

We just completed a fully custom motor built entirely from scratch — coils, magnets, everything.
One engineer, two months, and now a patented design with higher torque density, lower mass, and high efficiency.

Excited to have Proception on the first-ever Black Flag 100 — a list 100 deep tech companies, nominated by 300+ deep tech founders.

We’re actively hiring 1–2 AI Engineers to join us on something seriously fun :) — working on dexterous manipulation with a custom-built, high-DOF (20+) robotic hand. https://t.co/x2CCBktEGt

[Humanoids Summit @HumanoidsSummit]

Dexterous manipulation is one of the biggest challenges in #humanoid #robotics.

Come meet @JayLiStanford who will be taking the stage at the #HumanoidsSummit to share how @proceptionAI is tackling this head-on — using #hardware, #data, and #AI to push the boundaries of what's possible.

@youfelll @JayLiStanford Thanks. Team has been working hard on the product and haven’t started working on cost/price much. Will work on it in the next few months
