Mike Xia
Mike Xia is the founder and CEO of Anvil Robotics, a San Francisco startup building open-source, composable robot devkits for the Physical AI era. After scaling an AI camera company to $5M ARR and helping grow cloud-compute platform Voltage Park to hundreds of millions in revenue, he teamed up with CTO Vijay Pradeep - whom he met as an entrepreneur-in-residence at Matter Venture Partners - to attack a problem they heard from 50+ teams: it took months and up to six figures just to assemble a robot before any AI training could begin. Anvil sells ready-to-go OpenARM and OpenYAM kits manufactured in Taiwan, has shipped 100+ robots to customers like NVIDIA, Figure AI, Path Robotics, Google, Stanford and CMU, and raised a $6.5M seed led by Matter Venture Partners and Humba Ventures.
