About UniX AI

UniX AI is a Shanghai-based technology company established in 2023, specializing in the research, development, and mass production of general-purpose humanoid robots. The firm was founded by CEO Yang Fengyu, who was born in 2000 and has attracted significant attention from the venture capital community. UniX AI operates in the embodied intelligence and robotics market, aiming to integrate humanoid robots into various settings, including households, commercial services, and industrial support. The company's business model is centered on the end-to-end development of its robots, from core component creation to mass production, which provides a cost advantage and facilitates large-scale manufacturing.

The company has secured venture capital funding, including a Seed Round in October 2024 and an Early Stage VC round in May 2025, with investors such as Chang'an Capital and Seine Ventures. A significant achievement for the startup was winning a gold medal in the hotel cleaning competition at the inaugural World Humanoid Robot Games in August 2025.

UniX AI has developed several robot models, including the wheeled humanoid robot 'Wanda' and the bipedal 'Martian'. The Wanda model, intended for mass production in 2024, is designed for household tasks such as washing dishes, cleaning, and interacting with other smart home devices. The Martian, a bipedal robot, is expected to be launched in 2025. A key technological feature is the proprietary 'Unitouch' tactile large model, which enhances the robots' ability to handle objects with precision by addressing data scarcity and long-sequence generalization problems in tactile perception. The robots' core components are modular and internally developed, enabling them to perform complex tasks, provide health diagnostics, and offer companionship.
