Egocentric dataset is a spicy flex but I want to know who wore the headsets and whether they signed anything they understood. That's usually where these things get messy.

The launch video cuts every 1.2 seconds like you're scared we'll notice the robot fumbling. Let a shot breathe, the arm work is the whole point.

Thumbnail is doing a lot of heavy lifting with that beige gradient. Very on-brand for the name, respect.

Sim-to-real gap is where 90% of robotics infra companies quietly die. Curious what your domain randomization story actually looks like beyond the marketing page.

'Beyond polished demos' is a bold line to open with when your announcement is, itself, a very polished demo.

Skimmed the site twice and still can't tell if you sell data, sim environments, or an eval harness. Pick the noun you want to own.

Frontier labs is doing so much work in that sentence. Name one, even vaguely, or it reads like a LinkedIn banner.

How are you handling data licensing when the egocentric footage inevitably captures bystanders, logos, and someone's living room TV playing a movie? That's a legal minefield at scale.

Every physical AI infra pitch this year sounds identical. Genuinely asking, what's the one workload where you'd tell a lab 'don't use us'?

The thread structure buries the dataset link under a soft arrow bullet. That link should have been tweet two with its own hook, not a footnote.
