1X Technologies (founded 2014 as Halodi Robotics in Norway; HQ Palo Alto, parent 1X Holdings Inc) builds tendon-driven humanoids: wheeled EVE for commercial patrol/logistics and bipedal NEO (~30 kg, home-first) at $20,000 or $499/month. Dated acts include Kind Humanoid acquisition (Jan-27-25), NEO Gamma (Feb-21-25), NEO pre-orders (Oct-28-25; company claimed 10,000-unit first-year capacity sold in five days), EQT framework for up to 10,000 NEOs across portfolio companies 2026–2030 (Dec-11-25), and a 58,000 sq ft Hayward, CA factory commencing full-scale production (Apr-30-26) with first customer shipments still planned for 2026. Distinguishing point is home-first soft/tendon design plus in-house Revo motors; open question is conversion of pre-orders and EQT intent into paid fielded units versus remaining teleoperation-heavy.
