What to know

  • Tutor Intelligence raised $75M in Series B funding from Andreessen Horowitz, union Square Ventures, and Neo, bringing total funding to $117M.
  • The company operates AI-powered warehouse and factory robots (Sonny and Cassie) through a pay-per-hour or pay-per-pick model with no upfront costs, guided by remote human operators.
  • Facilities using Tutor robots have quadrupled in the past year, with the company projecting over 1,000 robots under contract by end of 2027.
  • Funding will support foundation model training and scaling manufacturing to meet demand that executives say exceeds current production capacity.

“Data collected by our Sonny fleet trains our largest and most capable robot foundation models at the frontier of rate and reliability.”
