Telexistence

AI Robotics · Physical AI · Industrial Automation · Ota, Tokyo

Telexistence is a Tokyo-based physical AI and robotics company developing integrated systems that combine robot foundation models, autonomous AI, teleoperation and purpose-built hardware. Its robots automate beverage restocking for convenience stores and material-handling work for logistics operators, with expansion planned across retail, logistics and manufacturing. It earns revenue from operating robotics services on its proprietary platforms.

The company also supplies custom robotic-motion datasets to robot makers, startups, universities and research institutes, charging according to dataset duration and task complexity. Its full-stack approach spans hardware, control software, data collection and AI training; in July 2026 it joined the NVIDIA Cosmos Coalition to advance robot foundation models and humanoid deployment.
