Waddle Labs

Waddle Labs is an applied AI lab developing language models that control physical robots. The work addresses the difficulty of deploying robots outside carefully prepared settings, where setup is often specific to a single machine, task, or lab, making results hard to reproduce or extend. The lab's stated aim is to make robot adaptation accessible to individuals rather than concentrated in large companies.

Research areas include model capability, with work on continual learning, preserving what an agent learns, transferring knowledge between agents, and building shared memory across agents; inference efficiency, focused on real-time robotics control and reducing latency while retaining flexibility for new tasks and environments; and human-robot interaction, covering how people assign tasks, observe robot activity, and correct mistakes through interfaces designed for safe individual collaboration. Early access and other inquiries are handled by email; no pricing or packaging details are stated.
