Tencent Tairos Embodied AI Open Platform

Tencent's open platform for embodied AI, offering foundation models and developer tools for robots.

Tairos is an embodied-AI open platform launched by Tencent, led by its Robotics X lab, with a Chinese nickname (钛螺丝) that translates roughly as “titanium screw”; it reportedly launched in 2025. Tencent's positioning is not to build complete robots itself, but to supply “brain”-layer capabilities to robot makers and developers: perception, planning, and action models, along with development tools, simulation, and data services, which manufacturers can call on a modular, as-needed basis and install on their own robot bodies. It represents one path for a large Chinese internet company entering embodied AI: build the platform and the models, and partner with hardware makers.
