AGIBOT Innovation Technology Co. today claimed that it is one of the first companies to have rolled out 10,000 humanoid robots. The Shanghai-based company said this marks a transition from early-stage validation to scalable, real-world robot deployments.

“Reaching 10,000 units is not simply about producing more robots; it reflects a fundamental shift in our ability to scale,” stated Peng Zhihui, chief technology officer of AGIBOT. “As our supply chain matures and manufacturing standardizes, we are seeing a pivot from small-scale, niche applications to robust, large-scale commercial demand. The widespread deployment of AGIBOT’s robots is no longer about seeking technical viability, but about delivering scalable value and driving the adoption of embodied AI.”

Founded in 2023, AGIBOT said it is integrating AI and robotics for general-purpose products and an application ecosystem. The company, also known as Zhiyuan Robotics Co., said it combines a robotic body with interaction, manipulation, and locomotion intelligence, or “1 Robotic Body + 3 Intelligence.”

Humanoids move into real-world production, says company

AGIBOT said it took nearly two years to reach its first 1,000 units, followed by about a year to scale from 1,000 to 5,000 robots. The next jump took another year.

In January, AGIBOT debuted in the U.S. at CES and said it had released more than 5,100 robots. According to Omdia, the startup was the No. 1 shipper of humanoids in 2025, and IDC ranked AGIBOT first in total shipment volume and leading in entertainment, research and education, exhibition and reception, and manufacturing.

In just three months, AGIBOT said it went from 5,000 to 10,000 units shipped. It credited the rapid growth to its maturing supply chain, continuous improvement in manufacturing efficiency, and accelerating production of its complex hardware.

The company said that a “significant portion” of its humanoids are operating in real-world environments in sectors such as logistics, retail, hospitality, and education. It also claimed that its robots have begun entering industrial workflows.

Partnerships help AGIBOT robots scale globally

AGIBOT also noted that deployments of its humanoids are growing beyond the Chinese market, from Europe and North America to Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. The company last month launched its full robot portfolio with Minth Group in Germany, and it recently signed its first operator agreement with Singtel Enterprise in Singapore.

However, U.S. lawmakers have proposed prohibiting federal purchase or use of certain Chinese-made robots with the American Security Robotics Act. The senators and representative sponsoring the legislation expressed concern about cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

AGIBOT said it is continuing to refine system performance, reliability, and application capabilities. In January 2026, it launched the Genie Sim 3.0 robot simulation platform and was recognized with “Best of CES” awards. The company is also conducting the AGIBOT World Challenge at ICRA 2026 in Vienna in June.
