Safeworld AI emerged from stealth with $12M led by Shine Capital and speedrun to solve robot safety testing as robots move into shared human spaces. Co-founder kwong47 describes it as "CI/CD for robots": every software or model update automatically runs simulation-based safety tests, injecting simulated humans into robot log data to test detection in rare dangerous scenarios — blind corners, workers tripping, humans crouching or running.
