Today we’re launching a mobile app that will make your next trip magical. ✨ We’ve helped 10,000s of travelers plan real trips, step-by-step. We’ve learned how AI can help you save time, money, and stress. We’ve used that knowledge to build an assistant that goes on your trip with you. Take a look at what it can do:

Introducing Cues: Voice & Gesture control for Matic We raised $115M and spent 9 years to make the world’s first intuitive home robot Say you spilled coffee: Point to the spill and say, "Hey Matic, clean this" and it will hear, see, locate in 3D, and go clean on its own. Matic comes with a lot of features: 1. Say "Hey Matic" - it locates your voice, turns, and looks at you 2. Say "Hey Matic, follow me" and start walking. Matic will follow behind 3. Say "Hey Matic, go clean the living room". Since it knows your house map, it navigates and just does it It's so easy, a 5 year old and an 80 year old can use it and it understands 75 different languages. Matic has 8x the airflow, specialised cleaning algorithms for rugs, corners, toekicks, mopping, etc and cleans better than any other robot vacuum. Also keeps improving with software updates. 13,000 families use and love Matic. WIRED magazine gave it a 10/10 (the only hardware to receive this rating in a decade) Buy yours at maticrobots.com and if you don't love it after 6 months, we'll give you a full refund. To celebrate our launch, we're cleaning 300 homes with Matic in San Francisco and New York City. Comment "Matic" below, we'll send you the link to sign up and come to your doorstep to clean your home with Matic.

Do you think you could train a robot to fold clothes better than any other robotics team? Now is your chance to prove it...and win actual cash prizes! The 2026 LeHome Challenge is live! Here is the details: Phase 1: Train your best clothes folding policy in simulation with 4 garment types, each presenting unique manipulation challenges. The types of garments include long-sleeved tops, short-sleeved tops, long pants, and shorts. The simulation environment uses @LightwheelAI's physics accurate deformable assets and built on @nvidiaomniverse's Isaac Sim/Lab. Submit your code by April 5th for a chance to win up to $2,000 and a SO-101 Arm Kit. Phase 2: The top 8 teams will compete in person at ICRA on June 4th to see who's policy performs best with real clothes. The top place team will take home $20,000! Learn more and sign up for the LeHome Challenge here: lehome-challenge.com/ @Scobleizer @chris_j_paxton @TheHumanoidHub @Sentdex #Robotics

Warehouse automation is best understood when you can see it working live, so that’s exactly what we’re bringing to Manifest. If you're also here, there's still time! Watch our demo, and let's talk about the future of warehouse automation! #Manifest2026

First Zoox ride: surprisingly smooth — felt confident. Second ride: totally different story. 👀 It hesitated on a right turn, had a sudden phantom braking moment, and then struggled to pull away after drop-off. Hardware is so cool — but the software still has a way to go.

VLA people: what metrics do you track when comparing models? Im hearing a lot about Gemini 1.5, but is a progress score the correct metric to use?

Exciting vision-based mapping from the @maticrobots team!
✈️The auto-flyover feature of the map is just so mesmerizing! I never get tired of seeing this -- and for those who are wondering, the gray part of the map is where it was pitch dark so it used IR LED lights to map.
