Release2026-10-13

Physical Intelligence opened a beta API for its robotic foundation models. Developers can upload data and fine-tune models on managed infrastructure. Fine-tuned models are accessible through a hosted gateway for inference. The API supports diverse robotic hardware and industries. Early partners used it to iterate on autonomy tasks independently. Network connectivity remains a challenge for some deployments. The API will provide access to Physical Intelligence’s latest models. Beta access is available via a waitlist.

What changed

Developers had to manage their own ML infrastructure, compute, and data pipelines to adapt robotic foundation models.

What it unlocks

Uploading data, launching fine-tuning, and accessing fine-tuned models via a hosted gateway for inference.
