AGIBOT made the announcement on 30 September. The company says it ranks first in the world for humanoid deliveries in the first half of 2026.

AGIBOT reportedly holds about 35% of the global market. In China, its share would exceed 45%.

According to IDC, global humanoid deliveries rose by 432.1% year on year in the first half. China accounts for 77.9% of them.

Other research firms give different estimates, but all put AGIBOT in first place. Smart Analytics Global credits it with about 8,400 units, against about 5,900 for Unitree Robotics. Counterpoint Research puts it at about 9,700 units, or more than 43% of the global market.

According to the company, more than 300 of its robots were installed in September at the Chimelong Spaceship Park theme park in Zhuhai. Kitchenware maker ASD has also received 100 units of the X2, its small home humanoid, for its stores.
