GRF builds the autonomous workforce for construction.

We program off-the-shelf humanoids to do the work on site. We build the brain; the bodies already exist. A force-conditioned world model reads the site, sequences the task, predicts contact forces and compiles plans to motion on whichever humanoid is on site. UK first, then India and the UAE.

The problem

You cannot hire your way out, because the workers do not exist. The UK faces a 200,000 worker shortfall and needs around 41,000 new entrants a year just to stand still. £21B is lost every year to on-site errors and rework, against 1% productivity growth a year for two decades. Worldwide, 60,000 construction workers are killed on site every year and $1.6T of value is lost to the sector's productivity gap.

How it works

Product

The site manager assigns work on a tablet: pick the zone, pick the task, assign. No operator, no teach pendant, no code, and it runs on the tablet already on site. Every job reports force and tolerance when it closes.

Why now

Language models had a web to read. Nobody has scraped how a wet block resists a hand. Site data only exists if you are already on site, so every run widens the gap.

Commercial model

You do not buy a robot, you hire one by the month: £12-15k per month for a single site, £7-9k per robot per month across a portfolio, including robot, software, updates, servicing and a named engineer.
