Skild AI Discloses $100M ARR, 60+ Paying Customers, Slams "Demo-Industrial Complex"
deepakpathak · x · 2026-09-11
Skild AI disclosed a $100M annual revenue run rate just 10 months after its first deployment, with 60+ paying customers including G10 Fulfillment, Mitsui & Co, and STN Inc. Most revenue comes from manipulation-heavy work (mobility only 10%, Fetch 4%). The founders argue cherry-picked demos mask the hard part: squeezing out the last 5% of reliability at acceptable throughput, plus mountains of deployment grunt work (installation, integration, repairs). They also plan to crack robotics RSI — a recursive self-improvement flywheel starting from one general foundation model.
