Company Overview

Kind Humanoid was a Palo Alto, California-based robotics startup founded in 2023 by Christoph Kohstall, a former Stanford University scientist and Google robotics team member. The three-person company developed Mona, a bio-inspired bipedal humanoid robot designed for household assistance and healthcare applications. Kind Humanoid collaborated with industrial designer Yves Behar to create an ergonomic and approachable humanoid form factor.

The company focused on integrating large language models (LLMs) with physical robotic systems to enable natural human-robot interaction. In January 2025, 1X Technologies (formerly Halodi Robotics), the Norwegian-American OpenAI-backed humanoid robotics company, acquired Kind Humanoid to accelerate its development of home robots. Kindhumanoid.com now redirects to 1x.tech.

Kind Humanoid's work on embodied AI, LLM-based control systems, and human-friendly robot design has been integrated into 1X Technologies' NEO home robot platform.
