Memories.ai is launching Memories Upload, a global platform that pays contributors to film their hands-on tasks and train robots using first-person video data. Its wearable LUCI Pin camera weighs under 45 grams and attaches to the head, chest or wrist, with two units able to capture stereo footage. The startup says its network recorded more than 1 million hours of video during its first month in beta and aims to collect more than 10 million hours by March 2027. Founded by former Meta researchers Shawn Shen and Ben Zhou, the company has raised $16 million, including an $8 million seed round in July 2025 led by Susa Ventures. Memories.ai uses Nvidia’s Cosmos models to index actions, label footage and adapt datasets to customers’ specific tasks; customers include three of the five leading frontier AI labs, although their names were not disclosed.
