What they shipped
- From its YC profile: Physical AI — robots and world models — is bottlenecked on one thing: diverse, real-world data at massive scale showing how humans actually do work in the physical world. It was never written down, and you can't buy it, because no one has ever captured it. Only real local experts, the people who do this work every day, can produce data this authentic and valuable. DeepReach builds the network that reaches them. (source)
- Its own site describes it as: "Start your data business with DeepReach. Become a Data Partner (DP): input your info, reserve your device, and start earning by collecting real-world operation data." (source)
Who is behind it
- Chris Liu, Founder/CTO: Co-founder at DeepReach Inc. Founding MLE & tech lead of Aven scaling to #1 in DM volume in the US. Research Scientist at Meta working on core ML systems. PhD in computer vision from USC. B.S. from Peking University. (source)
