What happened
MaxInsights (Chinese entity Haiyu Shuwei) announced the completion of a $30 million seed round led by Peak XV Partners, with participation from Tola Capital, South Park Commons, INCE Capital, and Alumni Ventures; the funds will be used to expand its physical AI data platform. The company also released two products, MaxLoop and MaxGlove: MaxLoop can generate a quality score for each video clip on the same day, and MaxGlove is used to collect tactile and force data that cameras struggle to capture. The company says it has collected real work data at natural speed in real home, restaurant, and hotel settings, accumulating more than 2 million hours; its data collection is carried out by more than 5,000 contractors across six countries using camera hardware to record everyday activities such as cooking, washing dishes, and washing cars. The company says it plans, with MaxGlove and its existing collection network, to collect 1 million hours of force data in 2027. OFweek reported that MaxGlove was jointly developed with Genesis AI.

- OFweek RoboticsThree embodied data companies secure funding within ten days; why is the data business without robot hardware favored by capital?
In the second half of 2026, as embodied intelligence funding cooled, Maxinsights, Jingshuo Technology, and Jianzhi Robotics completed a $30 million seed round, a several tens of millions of dollars Pre-A round, and a $100 million A+ round, respectively, within ten days. None of the three companies builds complete robots; their core teams have backgrounds in autonomous driving data closed loops, and they enter data supply through a global collection network, a data platform spun off from WeRide, and a multimodal collection production line, respectively. The article points out that data volume does not equal data value, and long-term competitiveness depends on data production and cross-embodiment reuse capabilities.
