[Robot AI Data Platform Mecka AI Secures $60 Million in Funding, Led by Framework Ventures] BlockBeats News, June 1: Mecka AI, a startup focused on training data for robot AI, announced it has raised a total of $60 million in funding, including a $25 million Series A round completed in November last year and an additional $35 million follow-on investment. Both rounds were led by Framework Ventures, with participation from Menlo Ventures, SV Angel, Kindred Ventures, and other institutions. Mecka AI primarily collects human motion data, such as gestures and gait, through body sensors, iPhones, and custom hardware, to train robot AI models. The company's founder and CEO, Josh Gao, stated that their core philosophy is to train robots using human behavioral data rather than traditional teleoperation data, thereby enhancing robots' general capabilities in real-world scenarios. Founded in 2025, Mecka AI currently has about 40 employees. The company claims that, based on signed contracts, its annual recurring revenue (ARR Run Rate) is expected to reach $100 million, though it has not disclosed specific client names. Vance Spencer, co-founder of Framework Ventures, commented that Mecka AI is one of the fastest-growing companies in their investment portfolio in terms of revenue. Looking ahead, Mecka AI plans not only to provide training data but also to directly participate in robot model training and deployment, driving the commercialization of robots in practical applications.
