Rishabh Chanana
Founder of OS3, Affordable, intelligent humanoid robots built to deploy at scale
Company
Rishabh Chanana is listed as a founder of OS3. OS3 is building the platform that makes intelligent robots accessible to every business. Today, robotics is constrained by two fundamental bottlenecks: hardware is too expensive to deploy at scale, and robots are difficult to train because high-quality robotics data is scarce and costly to collect. We built OS3 to solve both. Our two-person team designed and a US-made mobile humanoid robot for a fraction of the cost of commercial alternatives. On the intelligence side, instead of relying on expensive robot-generated training data, we trained our own video-action model on 150,000 hours of real-world video spanning more than 2,000 tasks. Every deployed robot feeds new experience into our reinforcement learning pipeline, self improving robot fleet over time. This creates a robot that can be deployed across industries to automate repetitive, physical work without requiring a new robot or training pipeline for every task. Our robots are already deployed in hotels, with customers now expanding the platform into biotech, hospitals, and data centers, including a wet lab at Stanford. Our mission is to do for robotics what Apple did for personal computing: take technology that was once expensive, specialized, and inaccessible and make it powerful and usable at massive scale. We’re building toward a world with billions of intelligent robots, and OS3 is the platform that makes that possible.

Every robotics company: Better theatrical videos than Nolan’s Odyssey Us: Launch in-front of 100s of people at Launch Live YC ps the model finished training 2 hours before the demo, more coming this week:)

One month ago, we demonstrated our OS3 Robot publicly for the first time: live, in front of hundreds at YC Launch Live.
One month ago, we demonstrated our OS3 Robot publicly for the first time: live, in front of hundreds at YC Launch Live. A new environment. No teleoperation. No event-specific retraining. Since then, we’ve reached multiple signed deployments. Turns out, 'launching is all you

I made my own MyFitnessPal as a day-off project that maps DEXA scans, Whoop scores, and food pictures.

Zoox at CES 2026
On the first day at CES 2026, a Zoox vehicle was stuck at a light while cars honked and passed by.
