Why this blog exists and what to expect from our daily humanoid robotics coverage.
Welcome to Synthetic Steps
Humanoid robotics is moving from demos to deployment.
Synthetic Steps tracks that shift with a practical lens:
- What was announced
- What actually works
- What matters next
What you’ll get here
We publish three formats:
- News — fast recap of meaningful updates
- Deep Dive — one company, robot, or technology in detail
- Analysis — opinionated market and product perspective
Editorial focus
We care about:
- Real-world deployment signals
- Unit economics and production readiness
- AI + control breakthroughs that transfer to hardware
- Honest differentiation between hype and execution
If you build, invest in, or follow humanoid robots, this is for you.
Let’s get into it.
