Figure AI partners with Catalyst Brands to deploy humanoid robots at Reno distribution center

Figure AI signed a commercial agreement with Catalyst Brands to deploy humanoid robots across the retailer's distribution and logistics network, beginning at Catalyst Brands' distribution center in Reno, Nevada. Catalyst Brands operates JCPenney, Aéropostale, and Brooks Brothers.

Figure's humanoid robots will automate physically demanding supply chain tasks. The robots use perception-conditioned whole-body control, allowing them to navigate stairs and uneven terrain using AI models trained largely in simulation before transfer to physical robots.

Figure's BotQ manufacturing facility increased production from one Figure 03 humanoid robot per day to one per hour within four months, and has produced more than 350 third-generation humanoid robots and over 9,000 actuators across multiple product variants.
