Swiss startup Enact Intelligence raises $30M pre-seed to infer touch from robot motor forces

According to a post on X by @yokoshaan, Swiss startup Enact Intelligence raised $30 million (about ¥4.4 billion) in a pre-seed round. The company was founded by Galliker, who led software development for 1X's NEO humanoid robot. Enact builds robot AI that infers touch from the forces inside a robot's motors rather than from added tactile sensors. The post did not name any investors.

Robot builders could see a route to touch sensing that does not require adding separate tactile hardware. If the approach works at scale, it may change how humanoid and other robots are designed and costed. Watch for disclosed investors, product details, and whether the company publishes evidence of its results.
