AI as teleoperator

Put AI on the
robot's shift.

Create a Teleoperator, connect a robot, and start a Shift. Its brain watches the work, calls approved skills, clears impasses, and hands off to a person when needed.

Real-time control on the robot. Reasoning served from the cloud.

Six qualified brains. You choose.
The problem

Robots still need help.

01Small surprises stop work

A dropped item, blocked path, or new scene can stall a robot.

02People watch too many screens

One person per robot makes every new deployment more expensive.

03Hard moments get lost

Without a clean record, the same failure comes back next shift.

The product

One Teleoperator runs the shift.

A Teleoperator is a named worker in software. It binds one brain, its instructions, approved skills, Handoff rules, and a revision history.

01Pick a brain

Choose one of six qualified Supervisor models. There is no hidden default.

02Connect a robot

Register its adapter, safe hold, watchdog, and local skill contract.

03Start a Shift

Assign one Teleoperator to one connected robot and define the work.

04Handle the unknown

Keep working, call a skill, or hand the next decision to a person.

Factor decides what happens next. Your onboard stack validates every call and keeps reflex, watchdog, safety, and actuator authority.
The operating pair

Use the autonomy you have. Add the brain you need.

Available now · Supervisor

Runs the work.

Watches evidence, checks progress, calls approved skills, clears impasses, and asks a person when evidence is weak.

Onboard now · Factor VLA prelaunch

Operates the motion.

Use your onboard autonomy today. Factor Operators open only when one exact model, robot adapter, latency profile, and action contract pass real-hardware gates.

The brains

Six models. No fake default.

Compare all six
Handoffs

The right mind owns the next decision.

01Onboard Operator to Supervisor

The robot reaches an impasse. The Supervisor picks a recovery or approved skill.

02Supervisor to human

The robot enters local safe hold. A person accepts the Handoff and resolves it.

03Human back to Teleoperator

The person records the outcome. Factor resumes the Shift with the same revision.

A Handoff transfers responsibility for the next decision. It never transfers the robot's local safety authority.
Improve

Every hard moment becomes evidence.

ObserveKeep the request

Store the observation digest, robot state, brain, Teleoperator revision, and latency.

JudgeRecord what happened

Keep local rejections, Handoffs, decisions, and the final Shift outcome.

ChangeRevise between Shifts

Change the brain, instructions, or skills as a new immutable Teleoperator revision.
