Rhoda AI today announced its public launch after 18 months in stealth, unveiling FutureVision, a new approach to robotic intelligence based on video-predictive control and designed to operate beyond controlled laboratory demonstrations and into real-world environments. The company also announced it has raised $450 million in Series A funding to accelerate development and industrial deployment.

The company is backed by top technology investors, including Capricorn Investment Group, Khosla Ventures, Leitmotif, Matter Venture Partners, Mayfield, Premji Invest, Prelude Ventures, Temasek, and Xora, as well as Silicon Valley leaders such as John Doerr.

Rhoda is building a new class of robot foundation model designed to bring general intelligence into the physical world. By combining internet-scale video pretraining with closed-loop video predictive control, Rhoda aims to enable robots that can adapt, generalize, and operate autonomously across real-world environments. The company works with leading industrial partners across manufacturing and logistics.
