Sereact raises $110 million Series B to scale Cortex 2, its AI 'world model' for industrial robots, and expand into the United States

3 Key Points

  1. Sereact closed a $110 million Series B round led by Headline, with participation from Bullhound Capital, Daphni, and Felix Capital. The company will use funding to scale Cortex 2 and open its first US office in Boston this summer.

  2. Cortex 2 augments a vision-language-action system with a world model—it runs possible robot actions against a learned model of physics and object behavior, picks the one most likely to work, and updates in real time as conditions change. It is trained on more than a billion picks of real production data, not synthetic data in labs.

  3. More than 200 Sereact systems are live across Europe and have completed over 1 billion real production picks for customers including Active Ants, Austrian Post, BMW, bol., Daimler Truck, DeltiLog, Mercedes-Benz, Monta, MS Direct, PepsiCo, and Rohlik Group. One pick in roughly every 53,000 needs remote human help.
