Hi everyone! I'm Charles Yong, CEO of Vassar Robotics.

We're excited to announce the launch of Navrim, our first robot, designed to make advanced robotics accessible to everyone! 🚀

Traditional robot programming has always been complex, costly, and time-consuming, putting it out of reach for many enthusiasts. With Navrim, we've changed the game. Our $200 robot arm, powered by cutting-edge foundation models, enables anyone to effortlessly teach robots new skills—like playing chess—in less than 30 minutes, without writing a single line of code.

Here's how simple it is:

  • Demonstrate a task to your robot arm.
  • The robot quickly learns by fine-tuning its foundation model.
  • Enhance its capabilities by connecting extraordinary intelligence from leading providers like OpenAI or Anthropic, turning your robot into an intelligent being.

In just the past week, we've fine-tuned 12 foundation models for our early users, and we're preparing to ship our first batch of 20 units by the end of this month.

Our mission is simple: Bring cutting-edge AI directly to robot enthusiasts everywhere—starting today.
