RewardAI launches OM-1 foundation model trained on human movement data

- RewardAI launched OM-1, a foundation model controlling everything from tabletop arms to full humanoids, trained entirely on natural human movement data captured via its Omnibody Hand wearable — no robot-specific training or fine-tuning.
- Demos show robots autonomously mixing drinks, grabbing bottles, and pouring precisely; brief human demos enable cross-robot generalization.
- Quoted context: SkildAI crossed $100M ARR just 10 months after its first commercial deployment, with 60+ paying customers and 90% of revenue from manipulation, including NVIDIA Blackwell assembly with Foxconn and 1.4M daily meals with Mitsui in Japan.
