Movers
Companies ranked by Momentum — a 0–100 score built only from real public events, never from how many outlets ran a story. Each row shows the events that earned it. Attributed by subject, not whoever's named in the headline. On a standing the same signal converts to at most 15 rank points, so the smaller figure there is this one expressed in the units a board is ordered by.

Event mix
The 45 deduped movers by type.
Where the weight sat
Significance-weighted share — a few heavy raises outweigh many routine deployments.
How the index works
We classify robotics news into real events — funding, launches, deployments, partnerships, M&A, IPOs and recalls — across the companies in our directory.
A raise covered by 20 outlets is one event, not 20. We cluster by company and type within a 72-hour window and count distinct outlets as the corroboration signal.
The event is credited to the company it's about — the one raising or being acquired — never an investor, partner or customer merely named in the headline.
Deduped events are counted each week and tracked over time, so the industry heartbeat is visible at a glance and every reading traces back to its sources.
