Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
Dexmate is a US robotics company (Santa Clara, founded 2024) whose VEGA combines high-payload arms, a foldable torso, and an omnidirectional base with an integrated Physical AI development platform (the robot as one part of a tooling product). It has a corporate-Asia validation chain: an LG Technology Ventures investment plus an LG CNS commercialization partnership (March 2026) and an NEC Orchestrating Future Fund investment (August 2025), two Asian IT giants as channels within six months. It is pre-revenue class ($33-41M raised).

12 facts on file.
Figure develops and manufactures general-purpose humanoid robots, including Figure 03, for industrial, logistics, and home applications.
Darker bar: ahead of the other company on that measure.
Figure is a US humanoid maker that delivered 350+ Figure 03 units from its BotQ line by April 2026 (throughput of one robot an hour, a stated path to 100,000 a year) and ran Figure 02 at BMW Spartanburg for ~11 months (90,000+ parts at >99% placement accuracy, described as the first independently verifiable large-scale automotive humanoid deployment). It raised $1B+ Series C in September 2025 at a $39B post-money (a 15x step-up in 19 months; NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Intel, LG among participants), launched Figure 03 in October 2025, and exited its OpenAI collaboration for in-house Helix models. The negative signal: BMW chose Hexagon Robotics' wheeled AEON for its first European humanoid pilot at Leipzig (February 2026), so Figure went from BMW's singular humanoid partner to one supplier among several, and secondary shares traded below the $39B round price by August 2026. It is effectively pre-revenue at scale against that valuation.
