Physical AI & World Models · Founded 2017 · Series B
Formant is a software platform that acts as a governed operating layer for physical AI, connecting robots from multiple vendors, business systems and operations teams into one fleet interface. Its Fleet Orchestration module assigns tasks to the best-suited robot regardless of manufacturer and dispatches help when something looks wrong. A plain-language Physical AI Layer lets teams query and direct the fleet, while the Egocentric Data Engine captures time-synced video, sensor and intervention records from daily operations. The company says it has been running in production for nearly a decade, with deployments across 644 production organisations. Named customers include BP, Knightscope and Blue River, and it works with forward-deployed engineers on pilots.
