# Auki Labs
Auki makes the physical world browsable, navigable and searchable for robots, AI and people by connecting the frontier to the frontline through a decentralized network called the real world web.

## Physical AI and robotics
Around 70% of the global economy is tied to physical locations and labor. Auki brings physical AI to the frontline, where the world's goods are made, moved, sold, and maintained. 

Foundation models need physical context to be useful in the real world. Auki bridges this gap by building an external sense of space that machines and AI can use to collaboratively understand the physical environment. This shared spatial intelligence reduces the friction of human-robot, robot-robot and human-human collaboration, empowering workforce fleets to coordinate the right action at the right time.
