Astribot, an AI robotics company based in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, will further expand the scale of product delivery in 2027 by launching robotic products for individual users, gradually expanding into home application scenarios, according to a senior company officer.

"As products enter more real-world settings, we will continuously enhance the operational and human-machine interaction capabilities of our robotic products, promoting the integration of embodied intelligence from specialized applications into everyday life," Fang Ke, co-founder and chief financial officer of Astribot, said.

Fang made the remarks during the China-Global Innovation Forum, part of the Hong Kong Fintech Week, which was held in Hong Kong on Monday.

"Since the establishment, we have focused on products and commercialization, progressing through stages such as technology demonstration, small-scale production and replicable orders," he said.

In the next phase, the company will focus on scaling up of its business, further enhancing cost control, product delivery and technology iteration capabilities, according to Fang.

Since the company began mass production in 2025, developers and commercial service clients have made multiple repeat purchases, with some clients gradually expanding their delivery scale in specific scenarios.

The company's S and T robotic series have a total production capacity of 10,000 units, providing a foundation for subsequent large-scale applications.

Its products have been deployed in various fields, including retail, cultural tourism, industry, research and education. Its independently developed Robot MART has been deployed in cities including Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong province, since November 2025.

"We have also partnered with enterprises to promote the application of our products in industrial scenarios," Fang said.

As the delivery and commercial application of products continue to advance, the company increased its investment in technology research and development, talent acquisition, and capacity building, according to Fang.

The company announced the completion of a new round of financing worth 1 billion yuan ($150 million) in October, the fourth round of financing completed since March, providing financial support for the continued advancement of technological innovation and commercialization.
