What is Agility Robotics?
Agility Robotics is a Corvallis, Oregon–based robotics company founded in 2015 as a spinout of Oregon State University’s Dynamic Robotics Laboratory. The company develops bipedal humanoid robots designed to operate in human-centric environments—including stairs, curbs, and uneven terrain—rather than purpose-built automation facilities. Its mission is to build “robots that work”, addressing labor shortages and automating dull, dirty, or dangerous tasks in logistics and manufacturing. Major milestones include the launch of Digit v4 in March 2023, the opening of RoboFab (the world’s first dedicated humanoid robot factory) in September 2023, the first commercial humanoid deployment with GXO Logistics in June 2024, and a $400M Series C round in June 2025 that valued the company at approximately $2.1B.
Business Model and Core Technology
Agility’s business model centers on the commercial deployment of Digit, its flagship humanoid robot, using a Robots-as-a-Service (RaaS) model supplemented by direct sales to research institutions and pilot program fees. The company vertically integrates design, manufacturing, and cloud-based fleet management through the Agility Arc platform.
Digit employs a dynamic bipedal locomotion architecture grounded in passive dynamics and biomimicry, enabling efficient and safe traversal of the same environments designed for humans. Key technical attributes include 28 DoF, LiDAR and depth-camera sensing, autonomous docking, and full-body manipulation capabilities for logistics workflows.
Agility Arc, launched in 2024, enables customers to map facilities, define workflows, manage fleets, and integrate Digit into existing Warehouse Management Systems.
Market Opportunity
Agility targets the warehousing and logistics sector, which faces 1.1 million unfilled U.S. warehouse jobs and high worker turnover, creating strong demand for automation that fits existing brownfield facilities. Digit aims to deliver an estimated $10–$12/hour cost equivalent, below typical human labor rates. Additional opportunities exist in automotive manufacturing for parts sequencing and kitting, as well as longer-term prospects in last-mile delivery and industrial inspection.
The broader humanoid robotics market is projected to reach $38B by 2035, with logistics emerging as the practical initial segment due to standardized tasks and well-structured environments.
Operations and Current Business Status
Agility operates RoboFab, a 70,000-square-foot factory in Salem, Oregon, which is vertically integrated to accelerate iteration and quality control. The facility is expected to scale toward 10,000 units/year and employs over 500 workers at full capacity.
Product development has evolved from the legs-only Cassie (2017) to Digit v4 (2023), the first commercial-grade robot with autonomous charging and safety-rated systems, with Digit v5 expected in late 2025 featuring a 50-lb payload and improved durability.
Commercial traction includes revenue-generating deployments with GXO Logistics and pilot testing with Amazon. The GXO partnership represents the industry's first multi-year commercial humanoid deployment.
Financials: Recent Funding Rounds and Key Investors
Agility has raised multiple rounds:
Seed/Series A (2016–2020): ~$20M led by Robotics Hub and Playground Global.
Series B (Apr 2022): $150M led by DCVC and Playground Global, joined by Amazon’s Industrial Innovation Fund.
Series C (Jun 2025): $400M led by WP Global Partners with participation from SoftBank and Schaeffler Group, valuing the company at ~$2.1B.
Key investors include DCVC, Playground Global, WP Global Partners, SoftBank Vision Fund, Amazon Industrial Innovation Fund, Schaeffler Group, Sony Innovation Fund, MFV Partners, and TDK Ventures.
Revenue is currently driven primarily through RaaS contracts, with the GXO deployment being the first major multi-year commercial deal.
Competitive Landscape
Agility competes in the emerging general-purpose humanoid market against players such as Figure AI, Tesla Optimus, Apptronik, Boston Dynamics, and Sanctuary AI. While competitors often emphasize general-purpose capabilities, Agility differentiates with a logistics-first strategy, early commercial deployment, and the industry’s first humanoid manufacturing facility.
Competitive strengths include first-mover commercialization, biomimetic energy efficiency, and factory readiness that provides a 12–18 month manufacturing lead. Key vulnerabilities include relatively simple grippers compared to competitors pursuing high-dexterity hands, and potential disadvantages in generalized AI capabilities compared with companies aligned with OpenAI or Tesla’s end-to-end neural architectures.
Agility Robotics Stock / How to Invest
Agility Robotics is currently a private company and is not publicly traded on major stock exchanges like the NASDAQ or NYSE. This means you can buy shares through a pre-IPO platform or brokerage like IPO CLUB.
