It released the DeepFleet generative-AI fleet-coordination model in July 2025 (claiming a 10% speed gain) but stopped using its Blue Jay multi-arm system in operations (February 2026) after testing.

In October 2025 it announced a five-year procurement plan for three million robots, one million autonomous vehicles and 100,000 drones. The Wolf Pack robot series is deployed at scale across more than 20 Chinese provinces and over 10 countries, covering warehousing, sorting, transportation and last-mile delivery. As of 2026-06-30 the LangzuTech goods-to-person system was live in more than 30 warehouses in China plus the UK and Germany, with more than 20 fully automated warehouses. The most significant single event for the Humanoids domain is the July 2026 Agibot G2 Max deployment, reported as the first confirmed humanoid robot in an operational third-party logistics warehouse, with a 50 kilogram dual-arm peak payload supporting 7 by 24 unmanned palletising. H1 2026 R&D spending was RMB 2.3 billion, up 23.7 percent. A distinct orchestration layer coordinates a mixed fleet across warehousing, sorting, line-haul, last-mile ground vehicles and drones, including night-time autonomous routes in Shenzhen and a rural drone network in Sichuan; externalisation is nascent, via a Robot Ambulance maintenance service launched in Beijing April 2026 with plans for 50-plus cities. This company scores in two Robotics categories; recorded here under the systems and AMR placement.","assessed_in":{"domain":"Robotics","list":"Robotics 100","rank":73,"score":80,"tier":"member","scores":{"gate_ne":["firepower"],"leverage":10,"position":8,"progress":10,"firepower":10,"commercial":4,"deployment":10,"production":4,"technology":6},"why":"JD Logistics markets the Wolf Pack robot portfolio for warehouse and delivery applications to logistics operators and warehouse customers.","segment":"Mobile robots & AMRs","layer":"Systems"},"signals_total":13,"facts_total":23}],"note":"Assessment by Frontier Tech Intelligence; facts and signals carry their sources."}
