Agility to Go Public via SPAC as First Pure-Play Humanoid Robotics Company

Humanoid robotics startup Agility Robotics has announced plans to go public via a SPAC merger to raise $465 million, making it the first publicly traded pure-play humanoid robotics company. In the first half of 2026, the company recorded just $174,000 in revenue alongside a net loss of $362 million, and is currently focused on industrial warehousing applications such as heavy lifting. Its next-generation robot, Digit 5, has secured $300 million in non-binding intent-to-purchase agreements from 30 customers, with plans to showcase a prototype at CES 2027 and begin widespread deliveries by the end of that year.
