Shanghai-based robotics startup Agibot plans to release up to 5,000 androids in 2025. This aligns with Elon Musk’s plans<\/a> for creating Optimus, stated executive Yao Maoqing in a conversation with SCMP<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to him, the company will deliver between 3,000 and 5,000 autonomous devices, significantly exceeding last year’s results. <\/p>\n

At the start of 2025, the production of industrial robots in China increased by 27% year-on-year, reaching 91,088 units. For service devices, the figure rose by 36%, to 1.5 million. <\/p>\n

Founded in 2023, Agibot has become a key player in Shanghai’s robotics sector. It operates a facility in the Lingang area and plans to open a new plant in the Pudong district to boost production capacity to over 400 units per month. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis year, we intend to introduce new products in industrial scenarios, replacing humans in specific tasks to create tangible consumer value,\u201d Maoqing stated.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He added that it will take about five more years to integrate humanoid robots into household settings. <\/p>\n

Maoqing has worked at Google Waymo and Chinese electric vehicle maker Nio. He believes the country has advantages in humanoid robotics, such as an extensive equipment supply chain and a large pool of AI talent. <\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe humanoid robotics industry is just beginning, many applications are yet to be developed, and production costs remain high,\u201d the executive asserts. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

He noted that production costs will decrease over time, and expenses for critical components like motors, reducers, and modules will be spread over larger volumes, enhancing productivity. <\/p>\n

The widespread adoption of autonomous devices will be feasible if their price approaches 50,000 yuan ($6,900). <\/p>\n

In December 2024, Agibot launched<\/a> mass production of humanoid robots. Later, it introduced<\/a> the AI model Genie Operator-1 (GO-1) for them, enabling rapid understanding and task execution. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
