Ambi Robotics this week introduced a new AI Skill Suite powered by its AmbiOS software stack. The software suite will include a growing library of 3D AI robot applications for licensing by trusted users.

“The hardest challenge in robotics is not demonstrating intelligence in a lab, but enabling robots to rapidly adapt to economically valuable work with industrial reliability,” stated Jeff Mahler, co-founder and chief technology officer of Ambi Robotics.

“By deploying hundreds of robots into production environments, physical AI is trained, refined, and scaled through real-world operations,” he added. “With AI Skill Suite, powered by AmbiOS, we’re making our production-hardened intelligence available in standardized applications that allow select partners to add perception, reasoning, and physical world manipulation to diverse robotic hardware configurations.”

Founded in 2018, Ambi Robotics said it is developing the foundational infrastructure to automate demanding physical operations. AmbiOS is the Berkeley, Calif.-based company’s hardware-agnostic operating system.

Ambi adds capabilities to AI Skill Suite

The AI Skill Suite features a rapidly growing library of autonomous robot capabilities, including item intelligence, inspection, dexterous picking, and precision placement. PRIME-1, Ambi Robotics’ vertically-integrated AI foundation model, powers these skills.

By using advanced 3D reasoning, PRIME-1 achieves higher performance with over 99.9% uptime, the company claimed. Ambi said it trained the model on a massive repository of production telemetry, encompassing over 250,000 production hours and 150 million consumer packages processed across a nationwide fleet.

“Ambi Robotics has built the path to general robot intelligence by hardening AmbiOS within the world’s most demanding logistics and e-commerce networks,” said Jim Liefer, CEO of Ambi Robotics. “Our systems have obtained data across an enterprise ecosystem responsible for moving 90% of U.S. parcel volume and 95% of active commercial SKUs to every ZIP code in the nation.”

“By launching the AI Skill Suite, we are allowing our partners to leverage this unrivaled repository of real-world operational data to accelerate the deployment of reliable, commercial-scale physical AI,” he said.

Ambi Robotics said that leading global automation providers and Fortune 500 shipping leaders have already partnered with it to license these skills.

AmbiOS connects robots with critical infrastructure

The AmbiOS software stack enables AI-powered systems to achieve industrial-grade reliability, said Ambi Robotics. It does this by connecting the brains and bodies of robots to critical infrastructure for support, safety, and customer operations.

By isolating hardware complexities, AmbiOS enables the AI Skill Suite to operate across varying robotic form factors and use cases. This architecture creates a data-rich ecosystem that uses real-world interactions to refine underlying foundation models, said Ambi Robotics.

As the AmbiOS “flywheel” gains momentum, data collected across a growing nationwide installed fleet continues to improve model generalization. This has accelerated product development, Ambi asserted.

AmbiStack reached the market three times faster than the company’s flagship solution, AmbiSort, by using the existing AmbiOS Skill Suite.

By the end of 2026, Ambi Robotics’ nationwide production fleet is on track to surpass 500,000 hours of real-world commercial operations, equivalent to more than 57 years of cumulative production runtime across diverse, unstructured physical environments.
