AMC Robotics and Hive Digital Technologies are teaming up on AI-powered robotics.

Under the agreement, AMC is using Hive's AI compute infrastructure for development, testing, and deployment needs.

In addition, the two companies are looking at other areas where they can collaborate, across AI optimization, data processing, and infrastructure scalability.

“As we continue to expand our AI-driven robotics solutions, access to reliable and scalable infrastructure is increasingly important,” said Sean Da, CEO of AMC Robotics. “Our collaboration with Hive supports our current operational needs while also opening the door to potential deeper collaboration as we look ahead.”

Frank Holmes, co-founder & executive chairman of Hive, added: “We are seeing the next turn of the AI industrial revolution with the advent of robotics, for security, for logistics, and many new novel applications in manufacturing. This is accelerating as the autonomy, stability, and accuracy of AI-enabled robots evolve.

"These machines will take on the dangerous, the dull, and the impossible, and the companies building the infrastructure behind them will define the next decade. We are seeing massive investment from the most valuable companies in the world into AI robotics (notably Tesla’s Optimus robots), and the Hive and AMC Robotics strategic collaboration positions our firms right in the center of these growing markets."

AMC Robotics is an AI robotics company, developing intelligent, scalable hardware and software solutions. The company's robotic platform, Kyro, is designed for inspection, security, and operational tasks. The robot serves as a mobile AI Edge computing platform.

Hive was founded in 2017 and originally functioned as a Bitcoin mining company. It has since expanded into the AI cloud compute space and is building and operating data centers for both purposes across Canada, Sweden, Paraguay, and the US. It is anticipated to have 540MW of capacity by the end of the year, including 400MW in Paraguay and 140MW in Canada and Sweden.

The company secured two customer contracts in February worth a combined $30 million.
