Leju Robotics is ahead on production and firepower. Spirit AI is ahead on progress and technology. Level on deployment, commercials, positioning and leverage. Leju Robotics is based in Shenzhen, China, Spirit AI in China.

It raised a RMB 1.5B (~$200M) pre-IPO round (October 2025, with CITIC Goldstone and actuator-maker Tuopu Group), filed an A-share ChiNext IPO, and has a FAW Hongqi car-plant deployment, ranking top-4 among Chinese shippers in H1-26.
