Matter

Something magical, and very real, is taking shape in the Bay. Join us at Matter’s first factory in Sunnyvale for Atoms & Autonomy, an introduction to what we’re building, why it matters, and where robotics manufacturing is headed. Matter is building the manufacturing platform for the robotics era, combining AI-native software, modular automation, and next-generation connected factories into a unified Physical AI stack. We partner with robotics and advanced hardware companies to move from design to production faster, with manufacturing systems built for speed, flexibility, and autonomy from day one. This is a new production model for intelligent machines. Join us for an evening of drinks, bites, and conversation with inventors, builders, and operators - rejoice, reflect and dream with us as we adventure to build America’s autonomous manufacturing infrastructure. Invite-only event.

Come visit us to experience the future of autonomous manufacturing built in our American factory!

@charlythuo If I want something vibe-manufactured, what company do I contact? Assume materials a combination of machined metals, injection-molded plastic, cast aluminum. Needs wiring, batteries.

Just spent a week in China deep diving the general-purpose robotics ecosystem. Key takeaway: while we’re vibe-coding… China is vibe-manufacturing ! A few things that stood out: 1) China has cracked “vibe manufacturing” Startups are spinning up hardware like we spin up code. AGIBot (3 years old) has already built ~10,000 robots. 2) The entire stack is being built in parallel. Every serious robotics company is full-stack: hardware + controls + foundation models. 3) Data factories are real and massive. Hundreds to thousands of people teleoperating robots 24/7 to generate training data. In some cases, the government is literally buying robots, generating data, and selling it back to companies. 4) The supply chain is overwhelming. Foxconn, BYD, LYitech - everyone is plugged into the same dense, hyper-responsive manufacturing base. This is why iteration speed is so high. 5) Structural paradox: Labor is both tailwind and headwind. Cheap, abundant skilled labor powers the supply chain… But it also makes automation harder to justify domestically. → Weak ROI for robotics inside China → Strong incentive to export 6) Hardware is impressive. Intelligence is not (yet). Amazing kinematics—dancing, acrobatics. But limited ability to execute simple instructions reliably. 7) Everyone is moving up the stack Every major CM/ODM is building their own robots—humanoids + wheeled. Today’s suppliers will be tomorrow’s competitors. 8) Dexterity remains unsolved Lots of prototypes. Very few real demos. So what does this mean? Physical AI requires strength in both bits and atoms. Right now: China → dominates atoms (manufacturing, supply chain, scale) US → leads in bits (models, autonomy, software) We are dangerously behind in atoms. If we want to compete, incrementalism won’t cut it. We need to: - Build depth and breadth across the electro-mechanical supply chain - Scale CMs / ODMs / JDMs domestically - Move 100x faster, think 100x bigger on scaling manufacturing infrastructure Hats off to those doing their part to advance domestic manufacturing supply chain - @makematterco, @VulcanForms, @brightmachines, @thebotcompany @gs_ai_ , @MytraUS, @mind_robotics, @tesla_optimus, @atomic_inc, @Senra_Systems, @pathrobotics, @machinalabs_,@figure_robot, @HadrianInc , @agilityrobotics

@NASAAdmin @NASAMoonBase Matter will be ready to build autonomous factories on the moon base. 🌔 🏭

To build a sustained human presence on the Moon, we are building @NASAMoonBase, prioritizing surface operations and scalable infrastructure.  - Frequent robotic landings and mobility testing including MoonFall drones  - Starting in 2027 nearly monthly cadence of equipment and rovers with scientific payloads landing on the Moon.  - Investments in power, communications, and surface mobility  - Scalable infrastructure to support long-term human presence The objective is clear: build the foundation for an enduring lunar base and take the next step toward Mars.

The era of software-plus-hardware is over. You can’t build the future of manufacturing by bolting a dashboard onto a legacy machine or by throwing software at a fragmented shop floor. AI layered on top of disconnected data is blind. The winners won’t be software firms or traditional hardware OEMs. They will be Physical AI firms. At Matter, we believe the factory, the product, and the data model are a single organism. 🔎 The problem: SaaS proliferation has created "islands of data." ⛔ The bottleneck: Legacy ERPs are built for stability, not the rapid adaptation AI requires. ⚙️ The solution: A unified architecture where hardware and software are designed together, from the first concept sketch to the product in the customer's hands. Physical AI isn’t a feature you add. It’s the operating principle of the modern factory. We aren’t building a stack of apps; we’re building a software-defined manufacturing system where intelligence is native and end-to-end. The future belongs to those who treat the physical and digital as one.

Most people confuse automated factories for autonomous factories. There is a difference !

The physical world is entering its AI moment. We’re building autonomous factories to re-industrialize America - faster, more flexible, and software-defined from day one. New website is live 👇 makematter.co

Happy Holidays from Matter 🎄 Grateful for the builders, operators, and engineers rethinking how the world makes things. Onward to an autonomous, resilient manufacturing future.

Lets build 🏭🚀🌖

@NASAAdmin @mmealling @rookisaacman Matter will be there to support all the manufacturing needs powered by autonomous factories.

@mmealling @rookisaacman We are going to build a Moon base

Our number one priority: American leadership in the high ground of space. 🇺🇸 - return to the Moon 🌕 - establish an enduring presence 🧑‍🚀 - realize scientific, economic, national security value 🧫 - make investments in nuclear power 🔋 - strengthen the orbital economy 💵 - increase the rate of world-changing scientific discovery 🔬 All of this is laid out in President Trump’s national space policy, and we’re gonna get it done.

🚀🚀🇺🇸

Re-industralize with autonomous factories ! 🏭🚀
