CoreWeave for physical AI

The best physical AI programs don’t just run on CoreWeave. They’re built with it.

Everything teams need for AI that moves the real world

Physical AI teams need integrated toolchains, massive data handling, and engineers who understand AI and physics, all in one place, and that's what CoreWeave delivers.

‍

Build at bare-metal speed

CoreWeave’s bare-metal NVIDIA GPU clusters deliver 96% useful compute, completing long-running RL training, Vision-Language-Action (VLA) fine-tuning, and world model jobs faster. All at up to 47% lower TCO vs. general-purpose clouds1.

Iterate smarter at every stage

CoreWeave’s integrated platform ties every VLA checkpoint, world model version, or RL policy back to the exact data and training run that produced it. So you get reliable results and issues addressed in hours, not weeks.

Co-engineer the hard parts

Our Physical AI Field Engineers have deep backgrounds in automotive, robotics, and industrial AI, and embed directly with your team to get models from simulation into the real world, where they need to perform flawlessly.

The infrastructure
physical AI demands

Physical AI teams are roboticists, simulation engineers, and physicists, not usually cloud experts. On general-purpose infrastructure, they end up spending months stitching together simulation, training, storage, and tracking instead of building VLAs, world models, and RL policies.

CoreWeave is purpose-built for the sustained, compute-heavy workloads physical AI runs on, not adapted from infrastructure built for web traffic.

Physical AI pioneers partner with CoreWeave

CoreWeave delivers high-performance compute that lets your team stay focused on science, whether you’re training robot policies, modeling road scenarios at scale, or running physics simulations (the kind that used to take weeks on CPU clusters).

Autonomous vehicles

Get your autonomous models ready for the road. We bring massive data handling and powerful compute to world model training, VLA fine-tuning, sensor simulation, and closed-loop evaluation for self-driving cars, trucks, drones, shuttles, and more.

Robotics

CoreWeave is built for the long-running GPU jobs that robotics demands. Our AI-native cloud is ready for policy training, model fine-tuning, synthetic data generation, and sim-to-real validation for humanoids, industrial robots, and autonomous machines.

Industrial

Our high-performance infrastructure lets you move compute-heavy physics  simulation from legacy CPUs to the latest GPU clusters—purpose-built for high-fidelity physical simulation, digital twins, and  training  ML models that predict real-world performance.

Shaping speed with CoreWeave AI.R

CoreWeave and the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One® Team are joining forces with the AI.R program, a new AI research initiative designed to advance engineering performance on and off the track. From the CoreWeave AI.R Tunnel to track-day analysis, AI.R brings together advanced compute, leading-edge aerodynamics, and relentless experimentation.

Many physical AI needs. One platform.

CoreWeave combines the tools, teams, and technology required to build physical AI systems, from large-scale simulation and model training to deployment and validation.
