UniX AI raises RMB 500 million as a customer signs on as investor

Existing shareholders Xienuo Investment and Yonghua Investment came back again, joined by Greenland Group, sensor maker Keli Sensing, Huagong Venture Capital, Xinjing Fuying, the Hongniao Qihang Fund and Yulin Industrial Investment[3]. No valuation was disclosed[4].

Greenland and UniX AI plan to deploy robot models, hardware, data and full solutions together across security, hotels and health and aged care[2]. Science and Technology Daily described the shift as a customer moving from product user to industry co-builder[1].

UniX AI says it has delivered more than 100 robots a month since late 2025, with a peak above 300 in a month, while keeping healthy collections and gross margins[2]. Its robots run in Hilton, JI Hotel and Home Inn hotels, security firms Certis and Inspur have placed volume orders, and a UniX AI robot made 2,156 drinks over a 24-hour run at a JD 7FRESH coffee bar, setting a Guinness World Record[1].

The company builds its Wanda and Panther platforms with its own joint modules and arms, and swaps grippers and dexterous hands for different jobs[2]. On the software side, UniFlex handles imitation learning from demonstrations, UniTouch fuses vision and touch for fine manipulation, and UniCortex plans long multi-step tasks[2]. Three Panther robots won a gold, a silver and a bronze at the 2026 World Humanoid Robot Games, including a second straight win in the hotel event[1].

China's humanoid race is crowded with bigger names like Unitree, AgiBot and UBTech[4]. UniX AI is betting on a narrower lane, robots that do paid work in hotels, shops and buildings, and having a large property group put money in alongside its orders is a stronger signal than a demo video.
