AgiBot (AGIBOT, Zhiyuan Robotics) is a Shanghai humanoid and embodied-AI company. Deng Taihua is founder, chairman and CEO; Peng Zhihui is co-founder, president and CTO.
The public lineup includes the full-size A3, industrial G2 and smaller X2. AGIBOT said the 20,000th production-line robot went to Chimelong, then deployed 100 X2 robots across 100 ASD stores. It cites IDC for more than 8,600 H1 2026 humanoid shipments, about 35% of nearly 25,000 globally and more than 45% of China. Keep that distinct from Counterpoint's about 9,700 H1 shipments and from the 20,000 factory total. On 10 October 2026 the Chinese production site said the Causeway Bay Times Square office had opened as an international R&D base. The matching English URL returned 404. As of 19 October 2026 no public HKEXnews Application Proof, PHIP or prospectus naming sponsors and a priced range was found. Caijing reported on 13 October that investors said a RMB 1-1.5 billion round was nearly finished at about RMB 50 billion; AGIBOT declined to comment, so the round is not recorded as closed.
At AgiBot's 29 October 2026 innovation day in Shanghai, president and CTO Peng Zhihui said first-half revenue was close to RMB 20 billion, Caixin and The Paper reported. Caixin also quoted 9,700 first-half shipments and 20,000 robots off the line by September, while The Paper grouped those 20,000 roll-offs into the first half. No audited filing was opened, and the shipment lines are not reconciled with IDC's count of more than 8,600.
No headcount was on the about or leadership pages opened.

Operations & revenue
Operating status
Operational
On 29 Oct 2026, Peng Zhihui said first-half revenue was close to 20亿元, which is RMB 2 billion, not RMB 20 billion. Caixin quoted 9,700 first-half shipments and 20,000 robots off the line by September. The Paper put 20,000 roll-offs in the first half and said AgiBot had 43 percent of the global humanoid market. Those shipment lines conflict. Neither article is an audited filing, and neither reconciles Peng's 9,700 with the company's earlier IDC citation of more than 8,600. No public HKEXnews Application Proof, PHIP, or prospectus naming sponsors and a priced range was found in this pass. A July 22 HKEX draft that defines the name AgiBot is Leadrive Technology's document, not an AgiBot issuer filing. Caijing's reported RMB 1 to 1.5 billion round remains uncommented by the company and is not recorded as closed. AgiBot remains a private Shanghai company.
Revenue streams
Humanoid and embodied robots
The commercial catalog on the pages opened runs from the full-size A3 and the industrial G2 to the smaller X2, plus earlier A2 and G1 models still linked on the site. The August 20 release says a G2 is already on a Longcheer electronics line and that X2 robots are in commercial service and research. No revenue split by model was opened.
Embodied models and tools
The about page says AgiBot unveiled GO-1 in March 2025 as its first general-purpose embodied foundation model. TIME says a later model, GO-2, launched in April 2026. These are robot-control models, not a separate consumer chatbot business, and no software revenue was disclosed.

President says first-half revenue was close to RMB 2 billion
On 29 Oct 2026 in Shanghai, Peng Zhihui said first-half revenue was close to 20亿元, which is RMB 2 billion, not RMB 20 billion. Caixin quoted 9,700 first-half shipments and 20,000 robots off the line by September. The Paper put 20,000 roll-offs in the first half and said AgiBot had 43 percent of the global humanoid market. Neither article reconciles 9,700 with IDC's more-than-8,600 count. No audited filing or company release of the revenue figure was opened. The Paper also said Peng introduced Worken, effective intelligent working hours, with no published fleet total.
Caijing reports a new round; AGIBOT declines to comment
On 13 October 2026 Caijing, citing investors, said AGIBOT had started a round of about RMB 1 billion to 1.5 billion that was nearly finished, at a valuation of about RMB 50 billion. Those investors said the round would keep a Hong Kong listing from completing in 2026 under the exchange's 120-day rule unless an exemption is granted. AGIBOT told Caijing it had no comment on the financing, valuation or IPO progress. The round is not recorded as closed. Caijing also said officially disclosed 2025 revenue was RMB 1.05 billion, without linking that disclosure. No HKEXnews Application Proof, PHIP or prospectus was found.
Opens a Hong Kong office in Causeway Bay
On 10 October 2026 AGIBOT's Chinese production site said it had opened a Hong Kong office at Times Square in Causeway Bay and called it an international R&D headquarters. The ceremony included Under Secretary Lillian Cheong, OASES head Peter Yan, and co-founder and COO Jiang Qingsong. A later phase would invest tens of millions of yuan with local universities. The English production URL for the same article number returned 404 on 19 October 2026. This is an office opening, not a Hong Kong listing document.
Cites IDC for more than 8,600 H1 2026 humanoid shipments
On 30 September 2026 AGIBOT said IDC ranked it first in H1 2026 humanoid shipments at more than 8,600 units, about 35% of nearly 25,000 globally, up 432.1% year on year. The same release restates 20,000 cumulative robots produced in September and the Chimelong and ASD deployments. This IDC series covers January-June 2026, the same half as Counterpoint's about 9,700 units and more than 43%, and is not a later quarterly shipment print. The original IDC report was not opened.
Deploys 100 X2 robots across 100 ASD retail stores
On 28 September 2026 AGIBOT said it had partnered with cookware maker ASD (SZSE: 002403) to deploy 100 X2 humanoid robots across 100 retail stores in China as in-store sales assistants. A three-day livestream from stores in Wenling, Shanghai and Wuxi ran 28-30 September, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Peng Zhihui said the robots greet customers, recommend products and hand promotions, inventory and purchases to staff. This is a named deployment count, not a company-wide shipped-unit total and not the 20,000 factory roll-off.
Tops gold and overall tables at World Humanoid Robot Games
AGIBOT said it debuted at the 2nd World Humanoid Robot Games with 18 gold, 16 silver and 12 bronze medals (46 total), ranking first on both the gold and overall tables. It said the lineup, including OmniHand, G2, A3 and X2, used mass-produced or already-deployed robots rather than competition-only machines, and that G2 units used in scenario events were the same model already at Longcheer and SAIC factories. Company-reported medals; independent medal table not opened.
Delivers 20,000th robot to Chimelong Spaceship
On September 24, 2026 AGIBOT and Chimelong Group launched a first-phase deployment of more than 300 robots at Chimelong Spaceship Park in Zhuhai, covering entertainment, education, visitor services and hotel operations. The same day AGIBOT said it delivered to Chimelong the 20,000th robot to roll off its production line. That factory-line total is not a Counterpoint shipment ranking, and AGIBOT's portfolio also includes quadrupeds and cleaning robots.
10,000th and 15,000th robots, and two different H1 rankings
The about page puts the 10,000th general-purpose robot in March 2026 and the 15,000th in June 2026. On August 20 the company said Counterpoint counted about 9,700 first-half shipments and more than 43 percent of a global market above 22,000. SCMP on August 10, citing Smart Analytics Global, reported roughly 8,400 shipments and 44 percent, and said that count includes wheeled G-series robots. The factory totals and the two tracker counts are different series.
2025
GO-1 and a claim of shipment leadership
The about page says AgiBot unveiled GO-1, its first general-purpose embodied foundation model, in March 2025, and that it ranked No. 1 worldwide in humanoid shipments in 2025. TIME's August 2026 profile says AgiBot shipped 5,100 units last year. The about page does not print that unit count, so the rank and the TIME count are not the same sentence.
2023
Founded in Shanghai
AgiBot's about page marks February 2023 as the founding month. Wikipedia says Deng Taihua and Peng Zhihui, both formerly of Huawei, founded the Shanghai company. The leadership page lists Deng as founder, chairman, and CEO, and Peng as co-founder, president, and CTO.
