Gasgoo Munich- On July 2, Suzhou Lexiang Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. — known as Lexiang Tech — has officially closed a nearly 500 million yuan Pre-A financing round and unveiled "Zeroth," a brand focused on embodied intelligence for the home.
Ant Group led the round, joined by strategic investors Geely Capital and 37 Interactive Entertainment, along with Yuanhe Puhua. Existing shareholder Monolith also followed up with an oversubscribed investment.
Proceeds from the new funding will primarily fuel in-house R&D across six core technologies, talent acquisition, and global market expansion. This backing will support Lexiang Tech as it pushes home-based embodied intelligence robots into real-world scenarios.
In just 18 months, Lexiang Tech has amassed 1 billion yuan in total funding. Driven by original innovation via a full-stack technology layout and a rapid, iterative approach to product definition, the company has secured over 30,000 orders. With revenue for the first half of 2026 set to rise 600% year-on-year, it is moving early to secure a critical foothold in home embodied intelligence.

Lexiang Tech vaulted into the top tier of embodied intelligence within months of its founding, recruiting top Chinese scientists globally to rapidly build a full-stack technology portfolio. This spans six key areas: body structure, embodied general models, VLA models, joint modules, lightweight robotic arms, and consciousness-mimicking models. By blending this with a team of seasoned consumer robotics engineers to accelerate pre-research, the company has achieved full-scenario coverage for its product lines. Ultimately, Lexiang Tech identifies product-market fit (PMF) not through intuition, but through high-frequency user testing and real-world data.
Leveraging breakthroughs in full-stack technology, a high-speed iterative testing system, and a robust channel network, the company has rapidly bridged the entire commercial chain — from product definition and order signing to mass delivery. This ensures the efficient conversion of cutting-edge technology into tangible application value.
