Expert demonstration partners.
Many policies learn faster when they start from someone who already knows the task: a teleoperator guiding a robot arm, a skilled player finishing a level, an analyst working through a workflow. Optimus can use demonstrations to warm-start a policy, to shape a reward, or as a reference when it evaluates what a trained agent does.
If you collect demonstrations, we would like to work out together how Optimus finds the right ones for a task, how each use is licensed, and how the demonstrations stay recorded with the run that used them. You bring the collection and the domain knowledge; we handle the integration into training runs.
How the expert demonstration partnership works
Steps
- 01
Share access
You give us access to the product, its technical documentation, and a contact on your engineering team.
- 02
We integrate
We build the integration and write the documentation Optimus follows, so it knows when to use your product and how.
- 03
Test together
We run it in a real training setup and check the results with you before anything reaches a customer.
- 04
Go live
Optimus can select your product in customer runs, on commercial terms we agree with you.
For researchers
If you study data quality, imitation learning, or learning from human feedback, we would like to work with you. Run studies with Optimus on your own datasets, compare how different data changes a trained model, and publish what you find. We are open to writing results up together.
Academic labs, independent researchers, and open-source teams can apply for up to $30,000 in Iacon credits through our research grants.
Talk to us
If a training run consumes what you sell, we should talk. Book a time directly, or write to dev@iaconautonomics.com and tell us which layer you supply.
