Founded by Stanford and Berkeley researchers and backed by Y Combinator, the company operates a massive data collection network with over 100,000 contributors and 500+ industry partners across diverse environments including homes, hotels, restaurants, agriculture, industrial sites, construction, and retail. The platform captures, labels, and synchronizes video, sensor, audio, and long-horizon data, with off-the-shelf offerings including RGB, RGB-D, audio, tactile, and motion capture data. Human Archive's data infrastructure serves as foundational infrastructure for automating manual labor, increasing global abundance, and advancing research in brain function, cognition, spatial computing, and prosthetics.
