FLORA: An Open Model Suite for Scaling Robotics Data Engines
The life-cycle of robotics foundation models crucially depends on data labels. Outcome reward labels are needed for monitoring real-world deployments. Process reward labels are needed during RL post-training. Timestamped captions are needed for filtering and balancing pretraining data. We present Flora, an industrial-quality data engine used for training GR00T models, that simultaneously covers these capabilities. Flora achieves SOTA scores on the captioning benchmark WGO-Bench and reward benchmarks RoboReward and Robometer. On internal benchmarks it is competitive with GPT-6 Astra while beating other frontier models. The model is substantially cheaper than API-based alternatives, roughly 125 times cheaper than GPT-6 Astra. Flora is battle tested at scale, labeling 200,000 hours of data per day across 512 GB300s. By open-sourcing our data engine, we enable researchers to scale custom robotics datasets and explore emerging applications such as physical auto-research and human-to-robot transfer.
