RLWRLD is a Seoul-based physical AI company developing robotics foundation models trained directly in real industrial environments. Founded in 2024 by CEO Junghee Ryu (previously founded Olaworks, acquired by [Intel](/companies/intel) in Intel's first Korean startup acquisition), RLWRLD trains its models using multimodal data from live factories, warehouses, and service settings rather than controlled labs. Its flagship product is [RLDX-1](/models/rldx-1), a dexterity-first foundation model for robot hands built on the [NVIDIA](/companies/nvidia) ecosystem, unveiled at NVIDIA GTC Taipei 2026.
