Raven AI Platform

Describe it. The arm does it.

Raven is an innovative platform that makes it easy to combine kinematic control, vision-language AI, and imitation learning — the three core technologies driving modern robotics. Start exploring on day one, go as deep as you want.

See. Think. Act.

Every Raven skill runs the same three-step loop — powered by real AI, on a real arm.

Step 01

See

The arm's camera captures the scene. Raven uses your phone's camera or the arm's own — whichever gives the best view.

Step 02

Think

A Vision Language Model reasons about what it sees and decides what action to take — based on a prompt you wrote in plain English.

Step 03

Act

The arm executes the chosen motion — a recorded trajectory, a pick-and-place sequence, a drawn stroke, or a custom skill you built.

Motion Intelligence

Motion Programming,
Inspired by Industrial Robotics.

Industrial robots are taught by capturing key positions — waypoints — and letting the controller generate smooth motion between them. Raven uses the same concept: jog the arm to a position, capture it, move to the next. The trajectory engine interpolates the path and replays it with consistent precision.

1

Capture Waypoints

Jog the arm to each key position and tap to record. No programming — just physical demonstration.

2

Generate the Trajectory

Raven's cloud trajectory engine interpolates smooth, continuous motion between your waypoints — the same technique used in industrial robotics.

3

Replay Precisely — Every Time

The trajectory is stored in your skill and replays with exact repeatability. Wire it to a VLM decision and the arm acts intelligently on demand.

Built-In Motion Templates

Simple Replay
Record a gesture once, replay it on demand.
Pick & Place
Composite pick + drop with configurable source and target positions.
Pick & Multi-Place
One pick, multiple drop zones — positions interpolated from a four-corner grid capture.
✏️
Pen Stroke
Draw lines, shapes, letters, and symbols on a grid — used for Tic Tac Toe, word games, and more.
Sequence
Chain multiple motions in order — conditional logic and VLM decisions between each step.

From Motion to Intelligence

Every replay is a potential training episode.

When you replay a trajectory, Raven can simultaneously record joint states and camera frames as a synchronized episode — the same format used by research-grade robotics pipelines. Collect enough episodes and you have a dataset ready to train an ACT model or any other imitation learning architecture. Raven datasets are fully LeRobot compatible, so your data works seamlessly with the broader open-source robotics ecosystem.

The Raven Skills Store

Think of it as an app store for your robot arm. Browse skills created by the community, install them in one tap, and run them immediately. Or build your own and publish them for anyone with a Raven to use.

🔍

Discover

Browse a growing library of community-created skills — games, creative tools, AI experiments, useful automations, and more. Filter by category, difficulty, or what the arm does.

Run Instantly

Install any skill with one tap. Every skill is a self-contained package — motions, AI prompts, and UI all bundled together. No configuration. Open the app and go.

🚀

Publish Yours

Build something in the Skill Studio and share it with the world. Every skill you publish becomes available to every Raven owner — your creation, running on thousands of arms.

Build Your Own Skills

The Skill Studio is a no-code environment for creating, testing, and publishing AI-powered skills. Record motions, write prompts, design a UI, chain logic — then publish to the community with one tap.

Record Motions

Guide the arm through a sequence and capture it as a replayable trajectory — the foundation of every skill.

Write AI Prompts

Tell the VLM what to look for and how to respond. The arm acts on whatever the model decides.

Publish & Share

Package your skill as a portable file and publish it to the community. Anyone with a Raven arm can install and run it.

Supported Devices

Runs on what
you already own.

Raven Studio works across all major platforms. Use a phone or tablet to control the arm wirelessly, or run the full desktop app on Mac or Windows for the Skill Studio and local AI models.

📱
iPhone & iPad
iOS — ideal for wireless arm control in camp and home settings
🤖
Android Phones & Tablets
Full feature parity — great for camp tablets and personal devices
💻

On-Device AI

Run AI locally.
No internet required.

Beyond cloud AI, Raven supports a growing set of on-device language models that run entirely on your device — no internet, no cloud credits consumed. Perfect for camp environments, travel, or anyone who values privacy.

Moondream Ultra-lightweight

Runs on virtually any device. Ideal for camp tablets and basic vision tasks with zero latency.

Gemma 3n Balanced

Google's compact multimodal model. Strong vision reasoning on modern phones and tablets.

Qwen 3.5 VL High Performance

Powerful vision-language reasoning for demanding skills. Best on modern flagship devices and desktops.

Cloud VLM Full Power

Access a broad range of frontier vision-language models via the cloud. The most capable option — uses cloud credits.

See Everything. Any Camera.

Raven supports up to three simultaneous camera sources — each assigned its own role. The more the AI can see, the smarter it acts. Use what you have: the device in your hand, an old phone on a stand, or a USB camera mounted overhead.

📱

Your Phone or Tablet

The primary camera. High quality, always available, and works the moment you open the app.

📷

Old Phone as Camera

Give a retired phone a second life. Mount it overhead or at an angle for a second perspective — Raven sees it as a network camera over WiFi.

🎥

USB Camera

Connect any USB webcam to Mac or Windows. Great for fixed overhead shots, lab setups, or high-resolution scene capture.

🦾

Arm Camera

The optional camera mounted on the arm itself gives a first-person view of exactly what the gripper sees as it moves.
