Founded in September 2022, Futuring Robot has focused from day one on household service robots, aiming to bring embodied intelligence into real homes. Rather than stick to lab demos, the company chose to validate and iterate its technology directly in complex, unstructured household environments.
Starting in the second half of 2025, Futuring Robot began paid, consumer-facing pilot trials. As of now, its robots have entered more than 200 real households, delivering over 21,238 hours of home services — making it the industry's first household robot available to consumers on a paid rental basis. During the trials, prototype user satisfaction reached 96.8%, and all rental slots have been fully booked.

On the technology side, the company has built a closed-loop iteration system from data to models, powered by large volumes of real-world scene data. As the first robotics firm with a home-scene dataset in the tens of millions, Futuring Robot developed its own AVLA end-to-end model. The full-stack system spans perception, cognition and execution, and has run autonomously on a routine basis for tens of thousands of hours across hundreds of dynamic, real households — all while maintaining a 100% safety record. The result: the first scaled deployment of end-to-end embodied-intelligence algorithms in home settings.

After this round, Futuring Robot plans to step up investment in core technologies and accelerate the scaled rollout and iteration of its solutions, deepen collaboration with industrial investors, and actively explore a closed loop for general household service scenarios. In addition, Futuring Robot will officially launch a 1,000-household trial program in 2026 to further expand real-user testing. Its second-generation home robot, with comprehensively upgraded capabilities, has also entered the launch preparation stage.
