Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
AgiBot (Zhiyuan Robotics; AgiBot Innovation (Shanghai) Technology Co., Ltd.) is a Shanghai-based embodied-AI humanoid maker founded Feb-23 by ex-Huawei executives Deng Taihua (CEO/Chairman) and Peng Zhihui (CTO). It rolled out its 5,000th mass-produced humanoid Dec-8-25 and its 15,000th by Jun-26, and per Omdia was the No.1 global humanoid shipper in 2025 (~5,100 units, ~39% share). It reported group revenue of ~RMB 1.05bn for 2025 and launched a Hong Kong IPO process Jul-24-26 targeting a ~US$5.1–6.4bn valuation; the open question is whether commercial depth matches its production lead.

Fauna developed and launched Sprout, a lightweight, interactive, developer-ready humanoid platform for home, education, and R&D use.
Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
Fauna took the opposite corner from the warehouse-humanoid crowd: a kid-sized, "approachable" home and education humanoid, Sprout, designed to be safe and likeable — it dances, picks up toys, and is built for households and schools rather than logistics. That consumer thesis is what Amazon bought in March 2026, folding Fauna into its devices/robotics effort and instantly making it a strategic piece of the only trillion-dollar company with a consumer-hardware channel, home-device install base and fulfillment robotics stack to distribute a home humanoid at scale. Pre-revenue at acquisition; the open question is whether Amazon ships Sprout as a product or absorbs the team.
