Origami Robotics

Origami Robotics is a Y Combinator-backed company that manipulate Anything Robot. The company participated in the Winter 2026 batch of Y Combinator.

We are building a "manipulate anything" model with the robot hardware that embodies it. We designed a hand-based data-collection device and a high DOF, direct drive robotic hand that match each other exactly, enabling us to eliminate embodiment gap and collect real-world data and deploy it directly.

Origami Robotics was part of Y Combinator's Winter 2026 cohort, has a team of approximately 5 employees, and is actively operating.
