## About

Based in Beijing, China and founded in 2026, Beijing Qianjie Technology Co., Ltd., trading as LatentVerse, develops embodied intelligence foundation models for robotics. The company was founded by Hu Yucheng, a PhD candidate at Tsinghua University's Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences. Its team includes members from Tsinghua University, Peking University, Nanyang Technological University, ByteDance Seed, Alibaba Qwen, and Xiaomi-related large model and embodied intelligence teams. In August 2026, LatentVerse raised hundreds of millions of CNY in Seed funding from GL Ventures, Crystal Stream, Innoangel Fund, Zhiyuan Robot, and ROBOTERA. LatentVerse develops UTAM, or Unified Tactile Action Model, an embodied full-modality world model designed to combine vision-language understanding, world-state prediction, action generation, and tactile feedback within a unified robotics foundation model. Its technology is intended to help robots understand tasks, predict future outcomes, generate actions, and adjust movements using contact force, slippage, and object deformation signals. The company will use the Seed funding to support its model development, multimodal embodied data system, model training infrastructure, and technical validation of the robot in real-world scenarios. In the future, it plans to expand into robot bodies and application scenarios once its model capabilities, data systems, and real-world deployment experience mature.
