1X Technologies
1X
1X Technologies is a Norwegian robotics company specializing in home-oriented humanoid robots, in contrast to most peers that target factory floors first . Its flagship product is NEO Gamma, marketed under the tagline "Safe, Intelligent Humanoids" and priced at $30,000 with a goal of reaching 100,000 households . The robot is designed for whole-home tasks like vacuuming, laundry, and conversation, powered by a proprietary LLM, depth vision models, and an emphasis on emotional design .
However, as of early 2025, 1X had yet to overcome major bottlenecks in home-scene safety and reliability, with NEO Gamma only in small-scale home testing and still distant from "general-purpose humanoid" capability . The company has drawn investment from OpenAI, which backed it in March 2023 to combine AI with humanoid robotics . In the broader ecosystem, 1X also appears as a customer of simulation-data provider 光轮 (Guanglun), alongside NVIDIA, Google DeepMind, and Figure AI .
