Figure announces partnership with Brookfield

Figure, a California-based company developing autonomous humanoid robots, announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with Brookfield. Brookfield will help Figure develop the world’s largest and most diverse real-world humanoid pretraining dataset and build critical AI infrastructure for scaling Helix, Figure’s proprietary vision-language-action model, and facilitate deployment of humanoid robots in new commercial settings. Brookfield has also invested in Figure’s Series C fundraising as part of the broader partnership. Using human video capture in a variety of Brookfield environments, Figure will amass critical AI training data for Helix to teach humanoid robots how to move, perceive, and act across a spectrum of human-centric spaces. Figure has already launched data collection efforts in Brookfield environments and will continue to scale this program in the coming months. Brookfield and Figure will also explore opportunities to deploy humanoid robots within Brookfield’s portfolio over time. Figure has initiated early commercial deployments with select customers, and the addition of use cases within Brookfield’s platform will demonstrate the ability to scale utilization across different sectors and applications.
