SHENZHEN, China, June 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — [X Square Robot](https://x2robot.com/en),
an embodied AI company developing general-purpose embodied intelligence robots and
foundation models for real-world environments, today announced the closing of four
consecutive financing rounds culminating in a Series C, bringing its valuation to
over US$2.8 billion (RMB 20 billion) and positioning the company among China’s highest-
valued embodied AI startups.

The financing brings together a diverse group of strategic and financial investors,
including leading technology companies, industrial partners and venture capital 
firms. IDG participated in the Series C round, while HongShan and Xiaomi have backed
the company in multiple previous rounds. Combined with earlier lead investments 
from Meituan, Alibaba, ByteDance and Xiaomi, X Square Robot has become the only 
embodied AI company in China to secure lead-round backing at different stages from
four of the country’s leading technology companies.

"Since day one, X Square Robot has focused on in-house development of foundation
models, pursuing a challenging but necessary path," said Wang Qian, founder and 
CEO of X Square Robot. "Today, our investments in embodied AI models, scalable, 
model-driven high-quality data pipeline system and real-world deployment are beginning
to deliver clear results."

The company said it will use the funding to further invest in core technologies 
and foundational research in embodied intelligence, advancing toward general-purpose
embodied AI that bridges the physical world and ultimately serves humanity.

Founded in 2023, X Square Robot develops end-to-end embodied AI systems that combine
foundation models, robotics hardware and proprietary data pipeline system. Rather
than relying on traditional rule-based automation, the company’s approach enables
robots to adapt to changing environments and generalize across a wide range of tasks.

**Building a Full-Stack Embodied AI System**

X Square Robot is building a full-stack embodied AI system that combines foundation
models, robotics hardware, proprietary model-driven high-quality data pipeline system
and real-world deployment. At its core is a general-purpose embodied AI model designed
to enable robots to perceive, reason and act in complex physical environments.

In April 2026, the company introduced WALL-B, an embodied AI foundation model built
on its World Unified Model architecture. Unlike modular VLA approaches that connect
separate vision, language and action components, WALL-B trains perception, language,
action and physical prediction within a unified network, enabling stronger multimodal
understanding, spatial reasoning and continual learning from real-world interactions.

The company has also open-sourced WALL-OSS-0.5 and WALL-WM, extending its unified
approach to robot manipulation and world modeling. WALL-OSS-0.5 achieved over 80%
autonomous completion on four of 17 real-robot tasks without post-training, while
WALL-WM introduces event-level prediction by aligning language, vision and action
data around meaningful events, enabling stronger cross-modal learning and physical-
world prediction across reasoning, manipulation and generalization tasks.

To accelerate model development, X Square Robot has built a scalable, model-driven
data pipeline spanning automated data collection, cleaning, annotation, quality 
control and augmentation. Combined with real-world deployment, the system enables
rapid model iteration while creating high-quality datasets for complex and long-
tail scenarios.

**Real-World Deployments Already Underway**

X Square Robot is deploying its model and hardware stack across household, industrial,
and logistics scenarios. Among these, household settings represent one of the most
complex and important testbeds for real-world deployment.

In this area, the company has partnered with 58.com to launch an AI-powered cleaning
service in Shenzhen and Beijing, where robots work alongside human cleaners in real
residential environments. Since May, X Square Robot has also launched the "X Family
Member Program," where robots live with users’ families for up to one month as household
companions, responding to a broader range of everyday needs. Together, these initiatives
bring embodied robots beyond staged demos and into real homes and everyday life.

The company believes these real-world deployments create a continuous feedback loop
in which operational data improves model performance, helping accelerate progress
toward general-purpose embodied intelligence.

"As AI moves beyond digital experiences into the physical world, progress will depend
on close integration between models, data and robotics," Wang said. "We’re building
that foundation so embodied AI can become part of everyday life."
