A Company on a Mission
Sanctuary AI is on a mission to create the world's first human-like intelligence in general-purpose robots.
![About Human Mind 650X650](/media/dv3jtfd1/asset-1610.png)
A refuge, a haven, a sanctuary
The year was 2018. A team of AI and technology pioneers established Sanctuary AI as a safe place for those with a shared passion for AI and robotics to gather and work collaboratively on perhaps the most complex technical challenge in front of humankind: how to build a human-like brain and system that’s capable of executing human-like tasks in a safe way.
As ambitious as that sounds, it's not a matter of if, but when, and we believe now is the right time to make it happen.

Understanding success
What does success look like? Great question. We will know we have been successful when, to a person observing one of our Phoenix™ general-purpose robots, it is not possible to tell whether a human pilot is directly operating it or whether it is being controlled by its Carbon™ AI control system.
