"Industrial Digital Twin & Physical AI Simulation"
Taiwan AI startup turning 2D CAD blueprints into simulation-ready 3D digital twins in minutes for physical AI training.
MetAI Technology Co., Ltd. was founded in 2022 in Taipei, Taiwan, and is backed by NVIDIA, Kenmec Mechanical Engineering, Solomon Technology, SparkLabs Taiwan, Addin Ventures, and Upstream Ventures ($4M seed, January 2025). Its core product MetGen converts 2D CAD blueprints into dynamic, simulation-ready 3D environments in approximately three minutes, down from thousands of hours by conventional methods. The platform accelerates Physical AI deployment for autonomous mobile robots, robotic arms, and other industrial automation systems across semiconductor, smart warehouse, and logistics sectors.
Led by CEO Daniel Yu and CTO Renton Hsu (NVIDIA Jetson AI Ambassador). Named one of The Information's Top 50 Most Promising Startups of 2025 and NVIDIA Inception member.
Primary type & automation activities this supplier delivers:
SimReady digital-twin environment generation engine that turns 2D CAD and structured data into high-fidelity operational digital twins and synthetic datasets for robotics training and simulation, integrated with NVIDIA Omniverse.
