Noetra Corp.

Noetra researches multimodal foundation models intended to support AI agents, robots and other physical-world applications. Its development program combines Japanese language understanding, reasoning and instruction following with work toward models that process images, video, audio and information about physical environments. The company brings together engineers and partners from Japanese industrial and technology organizations, including Sony, SoftBank, NEC and Honda. It plans staged external releases as research advances and applications mature, alongside computing infrastructure for model development. Based in Shibuya, Tokyo, Noetra is a distinct operating company rather than a SoftBank product brand.
