Antioch sells cloud software to robotics, autonomy, and physical-AI companies. Its platform builds digital twins of robots and operating environments so engineering teams can develop, test, and generate synthetic data for autonomous systems without relying solely on physical hardware.

  • Series A funding totaled $32 million, led by Greylock and announced September 8, 2026.siliconangle.comantioch.com
  • Amazon's Ring is a publicly identified customer, while NVIDIA and Nebius are named technology partners.siliconangle.com
  • TechCrunch reported that Antioch raised an $8.5 million seed round at a reported $60 million valuation and positioned the company as a development environment for physical AI.techcrunch.com

WHY WE WOULD WORK AT ANTIOCH

Shape Physical AI

Help make Antioch's mission real: developing physical AI at the speed of software. Your work can change how robots and autonomous systems are built, tested, and deployed.

Build the Simulation Layer

Work on high-fidelity digital twins spanning robots, sensors, facilities, and operating environments. The platform combines CAD, BIM, URDF, and STEP imports with sim-to-real calibration and scenario generation.

Push Cloud-Scale Robotics

Tackle demanding infrastructure problems across thousands of parallel simulations, synthetic data generation, and CI/CD regression testing. You'll work alongside technologies including NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Isaac Lab, Omniverse, PhysX, and ROS containers.

Join a Small Expert Team

Join an engineering-driven team of roughly 8–12 people, including alumni of Tesla Autopilot, Google DeepMind, and Meta Reality Labs. Antioch values contrarian thinking, technical excellence, operational rigor, and disciplined prioritization.

Grow With Strong Backing

Antioch has raised a company-stated $40.5 million, including a $32 million Series A led by Greylock. With active hiring across platform, infrastructure, machine learning, graphics, and customer deployments, you can help define the next stage of the company.

Impact Real Deployments

Your work can support teams building aerial autonomy, industrial automation, logistics systems, autonomous vehicles, and healthcare robotics. Antioch's publicly referenced customers and partners include Amazon Ring, NVIDIA Robotics, Nebius, and Launchpad Build AI.

MARKET AND TRACTION

GROWTH TACTICS

  • Uses a sales-led enterprise motion built around demos, customer deployments, and cloud-based simulation infrastructure rather than self-serve pricing.

  • Expands adoption through integrations with CAD, BIM, URDF, STEP, ROS containers, NVIDIA simulation technologies, CI/CD workflows, and Antioch Agent.

  • Targets organizations seeking to reduce reliance on scarce and expensive physical hardware by running parallel simulations, regression tests, and synthetic-data generation in the cloud.
  • MARKET OPPORTUNITY

  • Serves the expanding physical-AI and autonomous-systems market across aerial autonomy, industrial automation, logistics, autonomous vehicles, intelligent perception, security, construction, defense, and healthcare robotics.

  • Supports multiple system types, including humanoids, quadrupeds, UAVs, autonomous mobile robots, industrial workcells, and autonomous vehicles.

  • The company positions simulation as development infrastructure for automating the physical world, addressing the need to develop and validate autonomous systems before deployment on real hardware.
  • NOTABLE CUSTOMERS

  • Publicly identified users or customers include Amazon Ring, NVIDIA Robotics, Nebius, and Launchpad Build AI.

  • Nebius has published a customer story describing Antioch's platform, while Launchpad Build AI provided a testimonial citing faster time to market and testing of production scenarios and impractical edge cases.

  • Public sources also reference engagements with major robotics companies and Fortune 500 enterprises, though the broader customer count has not been disclosed.
  • KEY METRICS

    ✦ KEY METRIC
  • Antioch reports $40.5 million in total funding and most recently announced a $32 million Series A led by Greylock.

  • The company was founded in 2025 and has an estimated team size of approximately 8–12 employees.

  • Its website demonstrates workflows involving 2,048 parallel simulation replicas, 142 robot models, 86 sensor models, 12 physics solvers, and 2,300 scenes and assets; these are presented as platform or library figures rather than independently verified customer-performance metrics.
  • COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

  • Combines high-fidelity digital twins, simulated sensors, scenario generation, sim-to-real calibration, synthetic data, and CI/CD regression testing in one cloud platform.

  • Antioch Agent enables natural-language control of simulations, test-scenario creation, system-specification imports, and autonomy-stack iteration.

  • The platform is positioned as a "verifier for physical AI," helping teams evaluate whether changes to autonomous systems improve performance before testing on physical hardware.
  • PRODUCT AND TECH

    Cloud Simulation Infrastructure

    High-fidelity, cloud-based simulation infrastructure enables robotics, autonomy, and physical-AI teams to run thousands of parallel simulations without relying exclusively on scarce physical hardware.

    Digital Twin Modeling

    Antioch creates digital twins of robots, sensors, facilities, and operating environments using CAD, BIM, URDF, and STEP imports. These models support development and evaluation in realistic simulated environments.

    Scenario Generation

    The platform generates varied scenarios involving weather, lighting, terrain, obstacles, human traffic, and sensor degradation. Teams can use these scenarios to produce synthetic data and test edge cases.

    Simulation Validation

    Sim-to-real calibration compares simulated behavior with real-world data, while CI/CD integration enables regression testing before software reaches deployed hardware.

    Antioch Agent

    Antioch Agent provides agent-assisted workflows for controlling simulations, importing system specifications, creating test scenarios, and iterating on autonomy stacks through natural-language instructions.
