AGIBOT makes its U.S. debut with more than 5,100 robots shipped

AGIBOT Innovation Technology Co. last week made its U.S. debut at CES 2026. The Shanghai, China-based company also announced it was ranked No. 1 globally in both humanoid robot shipment volume and market share in 2025, according to the latest report released by Omdia.

Omdia wrote that AGIBOT shipped more than 5,100 robots during the year. The company has captured 39% of global market share, it said.

“Bringing our full robotics portfolio to CES marks a defining moment for AGIBOT,” said Dr. Yao Maoqing, partner, senior vice president, and president of the Embodied Business Unit at AGIBOT. “It demonstrates how we are able to build an ecosystem of humanoid robots, not for a single task or setting, but for a future where embodied intelligence can serve people across industries, environments, and everyday life.”

Founded in 2023, the company offers a range of humanoid robots and mobile robots for cleaning and service settings. In December, AGIBOT released its updated humanoid, AGIBOT A2. Later that month, the company rolled out its 5,000th mass-produced robot at its factory.

Also at CES, AGIBOT introduced Genie Sim 3.0, a robot simulation platform powered by NVIDIA Isaac Sim. The company said it delivers a unified, open simulation workflow. The platform brings together digital asset generation, scene generalization, data collection, automated evaluation, and physics-based simulation in a single toolchain.

Last week, AgiBot Research introduced the SOP (scalable online post-training) framework, which it said is designed to enable online updates of vision-language-action (VLA) models across robot fleets. It said the framework shifts the learning paradigm from offline to distributed online training and can lead to significant performance improvements on the path toward general-purpose robots.

Omdia reported that the global humanoid market entered a phase of rapid growth in 2025. Total annual shipments reached approximately 13,000 units, the organization claimed.

AGIBOT shipped more than 5,100 humanoid robots during the year, according to Omdia. Its product portfolio spans full-sized humanoids, compact half-sized humanoids, and wheeled robots.

However, that number also includes the number of mobile manipulators the company has shipped. In December, AGIBOT said it had produced 1,742 units of its A-Series robots and 1,846 units of its X-Series, both of which are bipedal.

In addition, the company has manufactured 1,412 units of its G-Series, which are mobile manipulators. This means AGIBOT has shipped 3,588 humanoids.

Omdia’s report did not go into detail about whether it included dual-armed mobile manipulators as “humanoids” in its report.

Humanoid market has room to grow

So far, humanoids have been commercially deployed across a wide range of scenarios, said Omida. These include reception and hospitality, entertainment and commercial performances, industrial intelligent manufacturing, logistics sorting, security inspection and patrol, data collection and training, scientific research, and education.

Omdia predicted exponential growth for the humanoid robot market over the next decade, projecting global annual shipments to reach 2.6 million units by 2035.

Other research firms, such as Interact Analysis, have much more conservative estimates for humanoid robots in the years to come. That company found that, despite the hype and significant investment activity around humanoids, market growth will be relatively slow, reaching over 40,000 units by 2032 with a total market revenue of about $2 billion.
