## About

Based in Shanghai, China and founded in 2026, Shunshi Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., dba InstAdapt, is an embodied intelligence company dedicated to building embodied world model infrastructure. The company was founded by Dr. Ye Shi, an Assistant Professor and Doctoral Supervisor at the School of Information Science and Technology, ShanghaiTech University.

In August 2026, InstAdapt raised USD 10 million in Seed funding from Sharetronic Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., V Fund, Pudong Venture Capital, Changshu Guofa Venture Capital, and other investors.

InstAdapt focuses on the application of physical AI and the development of world models for robots to quickly acquire the necessary experience and continuously learn during deployment. The company has built a four-layer physical AI (Artificial Intelligence) infrastructure including: first, robot-ready data of real environment obtained through first-person human videos, robot interaction data, 3D reconstruction, and hand-object relationship modeling; second, 3D physical asset that can directly support robot training through trainable, interactive, and editable 3D task environments transformed from input photos, videos, and other data; third, a unified world action model that generates robot actions and also predicts visual, state, and contact changes after the actions are performed; and fourth, an embodied recursive self-improvement mechanism that optimizes robots' model and evaluation mechanism in each learning round to improve adaptive efficiency in new scenarios.

The company generates revenue from developing and providing and embodied intelligence world models for robots.

The company will primarily use the Seed funding for the construction of physical AI data infrastructure, the research and development of embodied world models, and the expansion of the core team.
