Positioning

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.
