Agility Robotics agreed to go public via a $2.5B merger with Churchill Capital Corp XI (Nasdaq: AGLT), raising over $620M in gross proceeds — the largest capital raise in humanoid robotics history. It becomes the first publicly-traded pure-play US humanoid company, citing $300M+ in booked multi-year revenue and roughly 1,000 Digit robots deployed under robots-as-a-service for Amazon, GXO, Toyota, Schaeffler, and Mercado Libre. Public markets are now underwriting physical-AI labor at scale.
