A Trove market map
The Physical AI Data Atlas
The companies collecting, licensing, labeling, simulating, organizing, and modeling the experience machines learn from.
Robots don’t learn from the world.
They learn from a supply chain.
Every useful physical-AI system begins with human motion, captured environments, simulated failures, and millions of judgments about what happened next.
This atlas maps the suppliers behind that learning loop, including a tightly screened intelligence layer: companies making deployable models for other robotics builders. Robot makers whose models remain captive to their own hardware stay out.
02 Eight layers
The data stack,
read as strata.
Each layer produces a different kind of evidence for machines. Select one to isolate it in the company index.
03 Subscriber field tool
Explore all
138 suppliers.
Search every company and isolate any layer. The full index is reserved for Trove subscribers.
No supplier matches that search.
One rule keeps the map honest.
A company belongs only if it directly sells the data stack to physical-AI teams, or sells, licenses, or provides commercial access to a named robot, autonomy, or world model that runs on third-party machines.
Excluded Robot makers with captive models, research-only model labs, generic AI vendors, CAE tools, and sensor manufacturers.
