Proception

2026. All hands 🙌 No fluff. No bureaucracy. If you’re an A-player, want real ownership, and thrive when things are hard—read on. Big corp too boring? Want to build robots that actually work? We’re a lean team of robotic engineers at @proceptionAI , operating in survival mode and pushing toward real humanoid capability. Every person matters. Every contribution ships. This is not for everyone. But if you want to build the future of humanoids with your own hands, we want you.

Merry Christmas 🎄

@iamRezaSayar @measure_plan Really appreciate the shoutout! Always fun to see people notice the details 🙌 Credits to our artist @AlbertCai_X

@measure_plan check out @proceptionAI 's website, the color's pretty dope! proception.ai

Breakthroughs don’t always come from big teams. This motor was designed and built end-to-end by one engineer. Sometimes the right talent is all you need.

🚀 We are hiring! ⭐️ Embedded Software Engineers / Rust Embassy ✨ Rust Engineers (exceptional systems builders) with full stack 🌟 Simulation & Modeling Engineers (Python & URDF/MJCF/USD) 👾 Game developers interested in real robots 🤖 👉 Apply: proception.ai/careers

We made a hidden internship/part-time invitation page for motivated @Stanford students interested in robotics area. Submit your resume today! proception.ai/stanford

Excited to have Proception on the first-ever Black Flag 100 — a list 100 deep tech companies, nominated by 300+ deep tech founders. See the full list: blackflag.vc/100 #BlackFlag100

We’re actively hiring 1–2 AI Engineers to join us on something seriously fun :) — working on dexterous manipulation with a custom-built, high-DOF (20+) robotic hand. Proception.ai/careers

Dexterous manipulation is one of the biggest challenges in #humanoid #robotics. Come meet @JayLiStanford who will be taking the stage at the #HumanoidsSummit to share how @proceptionAI is tackling this head-on — using #hardware, #data, and #AI to push the boundaries of what's possible.

YC demo day

@youfelll @JayLiStanford Thanks. Team has been working hard on the product and haven’t started working on cost/price much. Will work on it in the next few months

congrats @proceptionAI team! what is the estimated cost for the hand you are targeting? @JayLiStanford

@keyztothesol Before end of this year

@proceptionAI When are you launching bruhhhh

Introducing humanoid hand by Proception.ai

@GoingBallistic5 OK we just feel like swinging the mid finger is not so polite but I can tell you it does ab/adduct...

While the @proceptionAI hand demonstrates ab/adduction (spreading) of the fingers, notice the middle finger does not abduct in this clip. Ab/adduction also looks mechanically linked. They may have a few other tricks up their sleeves, too. 🧵
