Perceptron is releasing Perceptron Egocentric 1.0, a self-service API that turns first-person human and robot video into structured training data for robotics, priced at $29 per video-hour. The company says the API delivers frontier-quality subtask timelines, continuous activity labels for each hand, and 3D hand reconstruction through a single interface, with no manual onboarding. Perceptron says frontier models such as GPT-6 Astra annotate subtasks well but cost too much to run on large datasets, and that standard benchmarks miss segments shorter than a second. At its default 4 fps, Perceptron Egocentric scores 0.787 on EgoHome, the company's new benchmark of sub-second household steps, within 0.010 of GPT-6 Astra at 4 fps (0.797), for $9 per video-hour against roughly $76. At 8 fps it scores 0.798, level with GPT-6 Astra, at an estimated $15, and both settings outperform NVIDIA's FLORA (0.747). On the public WGO-Bench benchmark, Perceptron Egocentric achieves the highest segment F1 (0.583) and the second-highest semantic F1 (0.474). EgoHome consists of 137 manually verified clips covering roughly two hours of first-person household chores, 24 of which contain at least one step shorter than half a second; Perceptron says it will release the benchmark, a new permissible subsegment Jaccard metric and their code in the coming days.

## Evidence

Verbatim from https://www.perceptron.inc/blog/introducing-perceptron-egocentric-1-0:

> Today we're releasing Perceptron Egocentric 1.0 , a self-service API that turns first-person human and robot video into structured training data for robotics. It delivers frontier-quality subtask timelines, continuous activity labels for each hand, and state-of-the-art 3D hand reconstruction at $29 per video-hour, less than half of what GPT-6 Astra costs for subtask timelines alone (~$76 per video-hour), all accessible through a single API.

Robot clips are from the Galaxea Open-World dataset [ 1 ]; manufacturing clips from Build AI's Egocentric-10K [ 2 ].
