Origin, a full-stack physical AI company building general-purpose robots for interior construction, has emerged from stealth with $20 million in total funding, co-led by Accel and Zacua Ventures.
Other backers include Unilazer Ventures, Schema Ventures and Z21, alongside angel investors from Anduril, Skild AI, 1X and Tesla.
