Figure Secures $3.5B Compute Deal With Nscale to Power Humanoid Robotics and Helix AI via NVIDIA Vera Rubin

Figure has committed $3.5 billion in an initial compute agreement with Nscale—with plans to scale past $6 billion—to deploy up to 100,000 $NVDA Vera Rubin GPUs.
The multi-year partnership designates Nscale as Figure's preferred compute provider and equity shareholder, routing the infrastructure buildout to a dedicated facility in Barstow, Texas, starting in the second half of 2027. The massive hardware allocation is targeted directly at supercharging the training pipeline for Figure's Helix AI foundation model.
