AgiBot
智元机器人
AgiBot (智元机器人, Zhiyuan Robotics) is a Chinese embodied-AI robotics company aiming to build general-purpose humanoid robots and an application ecosystem around them, with backers including Tencent, Baidu Ventures, Matrix Partners China and Lanchi (BlueRun) Ventures . Per BlueRun Ventures — an early investor that has added on across multiple rounds — the company is built on an "one body, three intelligences" architecture combining manipulation, interaction and locomotion, and fields three robot families (远征, 精灵, 灵犀) plus GO-1 (Genie Operator-1), described as the industry's first general embodied foundation model, whose ViLLA architecture it fully open-sourced in September 2025 following the million-trajectory AgiBot World dataset released in late 2024 . Commercially it has moved from validation to batch delivery: it landed a multimillion-yuan industrial order from Fulin Precision in 2025 , an Omdia report cited by BlueRun ranked it atop global humanoid shipment rankings with the most "Advanced Capability" ratings across eight dimensions — placing it in a first tier alongside Unitree and Tesla — and its dexterous-hand subsidiary AGILINK (临界点) closed two consecutive funding rounds co-led by BlueRun and GL Ventures in early 2026 .
