About Hitch Interactive
Hitch Interactive operates a physical-AI ecosystem spanning robot access, open software, standardized interfaces, competitions, training and field support. Hitch Open provides common environments where teams can develop and compare embodied capabilities on real hardware, including autonomous racing and humanoid table tennis.
The San Ramon company also sells and rents humanoids, dexterous hands and motion-capture systems, and provides deployment consulting and maintenance. Its platform role is to make robot skills portable and testable across hardware rather than to manufacture a single proprietary robot family.

Timeline
Events
- 2026-09-10 - Partnership - JOYX and Hitch Interactive partner on real-to-real robot training data
JOYX captures, reconstructs and verifies human and robot demonstration data before retargeting it to specific embodiments. Hitch supplies standardized hardware and control interfaces, open-source software and access to real robot environments. The companies plan complete capability packages for defined commercial use cases rather than standalone components.

Twelve teams used identical AgiBot Expedition A3 hardware with competition cameras and motion-capture data. Robots served and rallied autonomously without remote control or cloud-based control during play. The Peking University–BAAI team won the final 2–0 at Beijing's National Speed Skating Oval.
