About Humandroid

Humandroid was founded on January 1st, 2025 by Ale Parise (CEO), Santiago Braña (CTO), and José Montalvo (COO), with one conviction: the next industrial revolution will be powered by humanoid robots. Founded in Argentina 🇦🇷 with a global vision, it is part of NVIDIA Inception, presented at NVIDIA GTC and MWC Barcelona, inaugurated Argentina's first Humanoid Robot Training Center, and is the official UBTech Robotics representative in Argentina, Mexico, Europe, and the US. Humandroid doesn't build robots, it builds the intelligence that makes them work. Robots ID, its operating system for training, deploying, and managing humanoids from any manufacturer, already runs industrial tasks autonomously for real customers, in production on AWS and Oracle Cloud, with on-premise Training Centers powered by NVIDIA IGX Thor where data never leaves the client's infrastructure and the client retains full IP over every trained skill. Working with YPF TEC, Arca Continental, TGN, Aluar, and Aeropuertos Argentina, Humandroid accompanies enterprises on a staged journey toward 2030: POCs in 2026, Pilots in 2027, and a Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) model in 2028 enabling every enterprise to scale its workforce flexibly, adding or reassigning humanoids on demand.

   Our Second Step at Nvidia HQ: Connecting with the Robotics Ecosystem in San Francisco

   April was a decisive month for Humandroid . We began our journey in Texas, on a mission to explore innovation and industrial applications for humanoid robotics. This trip was supported by ProCórdoba, who helped us connect with key companies and stakeholders. During this stage, we visited some of the world’s most innovative companies: IBM, Tesla, Ericsson, Microsoft, and JP Morgan. Each meeting allowed us to explore how different industries leverage technology to optimize processes, create value, and tackle complex challenges. These visits were an incredible learning experience and reinforced our vision of how humanoid robots can be integrated into high-impact industrial environments. Next, we traveled to San Francisco, the heart of the advanced robotics and technology ecosystem. There, we had the opportunity to connect with Florian from InOrbit and also visited the offices of Figure, strengthening relationships with key players who share our mission to train the new workforce of the future through humanoid robots. These connections not only inspire us but also allow us to exchange experiences and validate strategies to accelerate the adoption of our technology. The highlight of the trip was our visit to Nvidia HQ. We met with the Robotics team to validate our technology roadmap and discuss our long-term vision. It was a key moment to align strategies, receive direct feedback from AI and robotics experts, and reinforce our confidence that we are on the right path to bring our humanoid robots to more industries and clients worldwide. This trip marks the first major step for Humandroid in consolidating strategic partnerships, expanding our knowledge, and accelerating our mission to transform industry with humanoid robots. Every meeting, connection, and conversation brings us closer to a future where technology and humanity work together to solve the most complex challenges.

   First Step

   The Beginning of Humandroid It all started with a video. In April 2024, I saw a demo of the Figure 01 robot. The humanoid didn’t just perform a task it explained why it was doing it. In that moment, watching it reason in real time, I realized something that completely changed my perspective: Robots were already thinking. That was the beginning of everything. Figure became more than just an inspiration—it became a guiding vision. We quickly aligned ourselves with Figure’s mission, recognizing the immense potential of humanoid robotics and how it could transform the way humans interact with machines. This spark motivated us to start our own journey with Robots For Humanity (Next- Humandroid). From that moment, I knew robotics had crossed a point of no return. It was no longer just about programmed machines, but systems capable of understanding, deciding, and learning. And a clear idea emerged: if robots can already reason, we must guide them to work for the benefit of humanity. By November 2024, this vision began to take shape. I reconnected with my university friend, Santiago Braña, who is now my co-founder and CTO. We studied Telecommunications Engineering together around 20 years ago, and our conversations quickly aligned our vision and purpose. Santiago came from the world of simulation, digital twins, and 3D, and it was clear we shared the same outlook for the future of robotics. The team wouldn't have been complete without José Montalvo. José and I go back to 2015, when he was my business partner at Evaluados AI, so I knew firsthand what it was like to build alongside him. In 2020 he had founded Robotrics, a collaborative robotics company, which meant he brought something neither of us had: real-world experience launching and running a robotics business. He was the other person who simply had to be on this team and today he's our co-founder and CSO. A future where humans and robots collaborate, learn, and evolve together. From there, things moved fast. We started reaching out to humanoid‑robot manufacturers, held meetings with tech companies in China, learned about the latest advancements, and began developing our own implementations. Then, on January 1,  2025, I registered as an official member of the NVIDIA  Developer Program accessing key tools, SDKs, and resources that would propel our robotics and AI work forward. Shortly thereafter, we applied to and were accepted into the NVIDIA Inception program, connecting us to a global ecosystem of innovation in AI and robotics. In March 2025, at the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) 2025 keynote by Jensen Huang, the future of AI and robotics was unveiled reinforcing our vision and empowering us to continue shaping our mission with cutting‑edge technologies. Today, Humandroid is more than a startup. It’s a mission to scale humanity through robotics. We aim for robots to extend our capabilities, free our time, and bring us closer to a world where technology is a natural extension of humans. Because our mission is clear: To train the new workforce of the future.
