## Summary

Skild AI announced that its annual recurring revenue (ARR) has surpassed $100 million, of which $50 million was confirmed within 10 months of starting deployments. It has more than 60 paying customers, covering material handling, delivery, inspection, security, food service, and warehouse, factory, and data center scenarios; about 90% of revenue comes from manipulation tasks, with mobility accounting for 10% (of which AMR solutions account for 4%).

## Why it matters

Beyond the company's self-reported revenue milestone, it also offers concrete lessons on how deployment in turn shapes model research, which is useful for understanding the relationship between real-world deployment and research.
