Apptronik, a fast-growing startup developing AI-powered humanoid robots, has raised about
$520M in new funding, valuing the company at over
$5.5B — roughly 3x its valuation last year.
Backed by
$GOOGL and Mercedes-Benz, with new investors including
$T ,
$DE , and Qatar, the company plans to use the funds to scale its Apollo robot for factories and logistics first, followed by healthcare and retail, and eventually home use (such as elder care).
The CEO compared the current moment to the early 1980s PC era, highlighting the massive potential ahead. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-11/apptronik-raises-520-million-in-new-funding-to-build-more-humanoids
