Brett Adcock: Figure AI Founder, Net Worth, Age and Rise in Robotics
Brett Adcock is 39 and has already built a track record across several major technology ventures before turning his attention to humanoid robots.
After earlier successes with Vettery, which was sold to Adecco, and Archer Aviation, he founded Figure AI to build humanoid robots.
The company raised large rounds at valuations that pushed his net worth to roughly $16 billion on paper by mid-2026.
Adcock has combined robotics hardware with AI software and secured partnerships aimed at industrial and logistics use cases. He continues to run the company hands-on while maintaining investments in other deep-tech ventures.
Figure’s rapid valuation climb reflects investor appetite for embodied AI.
Adcock’s track record of taking companies from idea to liquidity events has made him a repeated name on young-billionaire lists.
His latest venture puts him at the centre of one of the biggest bets in technology: bringing AI-powered humanoid robots into real-world workplaces. If Figure continues to grow, Adcock’s fortune will remain closely tied to the company’s private valuation and its ability to turn that ambition into commercial-scale robotics.
