About IRL (Instawork Robotics Labs)
Researchers at UC Berkeley have identified a “100,000-year data gap” — the gulf between what trained AI language models and what physical robots actually have to learn from. Closing that gap is the defining infrastructure challenge of the physical AI era. IRL is Instawork’s answer to it. We deploy skilled workers into real commercial and residential environments — kitchens, warehouses, hotel floors, homes — to capture the high-fidelity task data that the world’s leading Robotics labs use to train their foundation models.
