Houston-based Persona AI, an AI and robotics company focused on building humanoid robots for heavy industry, has closed a $42.0M pre-seed funding round. The substantial early-stage capital infusion will accelerate the development of its next-generation humanoids, purpose-built to tackle the rigors of industrial environments.

The company, headquartered in Texas, is actively expanding its engineering team, seeking talent committed to putting these advanced robots to work in challenging sectors.

Here's the teaser vid of Persona AI's Gen2 humanoid that I showed during my fireside chat with Brian Heater at the Automate Show in Chicago. Crazy to think Persona was just about 5 people in early Jan of 2025.

During the past 18 months we raised a $42M pre-seed round, hired the one of the best teams in the world, completed 2 generations of our humanoid, developed the AI training infrastructure, landed major commercial and technology partnerships, and...and...and. Oh, and the production run our Gen3s just hit the shop. The team at Persona is on fire! LDTS!
