Xingji Guangnian

Xingji Guangnian (星际光年) is an embodied intelligence startup developing robotic dexterous hands, founded and led by CEO Wei Dehao, a 1998-born entrepreneur . The company has moved through funding at an unusually rapid cadence: it closed an angel round led by FreeS Capital (峰瑞资本) in mid-2025, followed by an angel+ round, then a Pre-A round later that year, and a Pre-A+ round of tens of millions of RMB by early 2026 . In a November 2025 discussion hosted by Tencent News, Wei and FreeS VP Yan Qianhang framed the challenge as bridging the "last centimeter" between robots and physical-world interaction — the gap where dexterous manipulation, not just vision or planning, becomes the bottleneck for real deployment . FreeS has been the consistent lead investor across rounds, betting on the team's path toward scaled production of robotic hands.
