Newton, our model that powers Physical Agents, fuses diverse physical data — such as current, temperature, or vibration — with semantically rich inputs like language and video. By combining these signals, Newton reasons across modalities and uncovers patterns of physical behavior that are difficult or impossible to detect from any single source.

LLMs vs. Real World
The data that keeps physical industries running — the signals and measurements that reflect how the real world actually works — is fundamentally different from the data and tasks of the online world. It requires a model designed and trained from the ground up for these challenges. That model is Newton.
Trained on 80% of text, 10% image and <5% video
4 modalities: text, video, images and audio.
Each modality treated individually.
50% physical sensor data, 20% video, <5% text
Hundreds of sensor modalities can be critical for every use case.
Requires fusion of multiple sensor modalities and data streams.

Newton is built to process physical sensor data and solve real-world problems — understanding spatial and temporal behavior patterns in complex physical systems. As such, Newton outperforms both general-purpose and narrow-purpose models on tasks grounded in the physical world.

We are excited to share a milestone in our journey toward developing a physical AI foundation model. In a recent paper by the Archetype AI team, "A Phenomenological AI Foundation Model for Physical Signals," we demonstrate how an AI foundation model can effectively encode and predict physical behaviors and processes it has never encountered before, without being explicitly taught underlying physical principles. Read on to explore our key findings.

Humans can instantly connect scattered signals—a child on a bike means school drop-off; breaking glass at night signals trouble. Despite billions of sensors, smart devices haven’t matched this basic human skill. Archetype AI’s Newton combines simple sensor data with contextual awareness to understand events in the physical world, just like humans do. Learn how it’s transforming electronics, manufacturing, and automotive experiences.

In a world where devices constantly collect and transmit data, many organizations struggle to harness its potential. At Archetype AI, we believe AI is the key to transforming this raw data into actionable insights. Join us as we explore how the convergence of sensors and AI can help us better understand the world around us.
