Agility Robotics lists on Nasdaq as AGLT, first US pure-play humanoid

The package includes a private investment in public equity led by Foxconn and $100 million of equity funding received before closing[1]. Agility intends to put the proceeds toward fulfilling customer orders, expanding deployments, scaling Digit production and advancing its robotics and physical AI stack[1]. Existing Agility shareholders rolled 100% of their equity into the combined company, with a 180-day lock-up on sales for those holders and the Churchill sponsor, subject to early release on certain stock-price triggers[2].

Digit is already working in customer operations at GXO, Schaeffler and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, with more than 65,000 hours of combined real-world runtime[1]. At GXO's Georgia site alone, Digit has moved more than 100,000 totes, and the partnership is expanding to two more U.S. logistics facilities in early 2027[1]. AGCO has signed a commercial Digit pilot for Hesston, Kansas expected to begin in 2027, and Agility cites three further enterprise manufacturing customers in paid programs plus a pipeline of more than 30 prospects across automotive, manufacturing, aerospace, logistics, consumer products and defence[1][2].

Next-generation Digit 5, unveiled in September 2026, has drawn more than $300 million in committed multi-year orders subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications[1]. The platform adds cycloidal actuators rated for repetitive lifts up to 50 pounds, interchangeable end effectors and closer human-robot work under Agility's cooperative-safety goal. Early customer access is targeted for the first half of 2027, with general availability aimed at year-end 2027[1].

On the compute and energy side, Agility plans to standardise Digit 5 onboard compute on NVIDIA IGX Thor and deepen NVIDIA Halos safety integration, while partnerships with FORT Robotics and Nyobolt cover industrial safety systems and ultra-fast charging meant to refill in about nine minutes for more than 20 productive hours in a day[1]. Manufacturing sits at RoboFab, the 70,000-square-foot Salem plant designed for up to 10,000 robots a year, with a Fremont hardware and physical AI lab and a 50,000-square-foot Pittsburgh expansion for software, deployment and support, all tied together by the Agility Arc fleet platform[1].

Most humanoid announcements still live in demos and private rounds. A Nasdaq ticker, a Foxconn-backed PIPE, multi-year Digit 5 order backlog and years of paid warehouse hours put Agility on a public-market clock where deployment metrics, not just prototype videos, will set the share price[1].
