Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
DexForce, also known as Kuawei or 跨维智能, is a China-based physical-AI company supplying embodied-intelligence software, 3D perception, simulation/data infrastructure and its own W1 Pro general-purpose humanoid platform. It reported more than 1,000 deployed projects across over 30 cities, a July-2025 A1/A2 financing of several hundred million RMB, a June-2026 RMB 1 billion Series B at a valuation above RMB 10 billion, and W1 Pro production and first delivery through Lenovo's manufacturing network in October-December 2025. Its distinguishing position is a vertically integrated data-to-model-to-robot stack; the open question is how much of reported commercial deployment is autonomous operation versus company-supported or teleoperated delivery.

Neura Robotics is a German maker of the 4NE-1 general-purpose humanoid (third generation, unveiled June 2025) alongside its shipping MAiRA industrial and MiPA service lines, with headcount grown to 1,400. It announced a Series C of up to $1.4B in June 2026 (led by Tether at a ~$7B valuation, with Qualcomm, Amazon, NVIDIA, Bosch, Schaeffler, and the EIB), Europe's largest robotics round, and holds Bosch and Dassault collaborations, though 4NE-1 is prepared for series production rather than shipping at volume. How much of the "up to $1.4B" has actually funded, 4NE-1 deployment counts, and Tether as lead investor (a governance watch) are the open questions.
