Founded in 2015 as a university spinoff, the company builds bipedal robots for warehouses and factories, led by CEO Peggy Johnson, a tech veteran from Microsoft and Magic Leap. With over $620 million in new funding, Agility plans to scale production in Oregon and meet soaring demand — already booked at $300 million for 1,000 robots under a service model. Their robots, like Digit, can adapt to different AI systems and safely sort trash — meeting industrial safety standards before deployment. While consumer robots are still years away, Agility is laser-focused on solving the urgent labor shortage in U.S. manufacturing and logistics, positioning itself to dominate the industrial robotics space.
