Hub is a multimodal data lab for physical AI. We capture how humans actually move through the world: first-person video of everyday tasks, hands, homes, and environments, and turn it into the original training data that physical AI and robotics companies need and cannot get from the web.

Robots can't learn the physical world from the internet, because the internet never captured it. How a hand opens a jar, how a body moves through a kitchen, how a task actually unfolds: none of it exists as training data until a real person records it first-person. Hub is the pipeline that brings it in: not annotation, not scraping, not synthetic data. Original data, created end to end.

Headquartered in San Francisco and backed by Y Combinator (P26) with $2M raised, Hub's distributed contributor network spans hundreds of thousands of people across 150+ countries and 100+ languages. Contributors record original egocentric (first-person) video through our own platform, HubApp, verified through human-in-the-loop QA before delivery. We work directly with frontier AI labs, Fortune 500 companies, and top robotics companies, scaling multiple 7 to 8 figure contracts, to scope, collect, and deliver custom real-world datasets from scratch.

Why join us?

We're a small, fast-moving, deeply technical team of builders, data scientists, and ML engineers advancing embodied AGI through real-world data and research, solving the data ceiling that's become a critical bottleneck for physical AI. If you want to build the infrastructure that brings humanity's lived experience to the frontier of AI, we want to hear from you.
