Mukesh Ambani-Backed Addverb to Introduce India’s First Humanoid Robot

Addverb Technologies, a Noida-based robotics company supported by Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries, has announced its entry into the humanoid robotics market by 2025. Positioned as an emerging Indian contender in this rapidly growing sector, Addverb will compete with global leaders like Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and Agility Robotics.

What Sets Addverb Apart?

Addverb’s AI-powered humanoids will be tailored to perform complex tasks across diverse industries, including fashion, energy, and retail. Equipped with cutting-edge GPU technology, energy-efficient actuators, and dual-arm functionality, these robots will be capable of navigating challenging terrains and executing intricate operations.

The robots will also feature Visual and Language Action (VLA) technology, enabling independent decision-making in dynamic environments. Reliance’s Jio AI platform and 5G network will power these humanoids, ensuring seamless connectivity and advanced performance.

“Our goal is to revolutionize the workforce by eliminating '3D' jobs—those that are Dull, Dirty, and Dangerous—using cutting-edge humanoid robotics,” said Sangeet Kumar, Co-Founder and CEO of Addverb.

Competing with Tesla’s Optimus

Tesla’s Optimus humanoids, priced between $20,000 and $25,000, set a benchmark in the industry. Addverb’s leadership remains optimistic about competing with global players and addressing challenges posed by subsidized Chinese manufacturers.

Supporting India’s Vision

Addverb’s humanoid initiative supports India’s Make in India campaign, driving the nation’s progress in advanced robotics and technological innovation.The company aims to boost humanoid robot adoption domestically and foster a supportive ecosystem for other robotics ventures, mirroring its success in warehouse automation.

Already serving prominent clients like Reliance, HUL, and PepsiCo, Addverb plans to take its humanoid robotics venture global. By integrating cutting-edge robotics with strategic partnerships, Addverb seeks to position India as a key player in the global humanoid robotics landscape.

With its groundbreaking project slated for launch in 2025, updates on Addverb’s progress will be closely watched as the company strives to revolutionize the robotics industry.
