UniX AI has raised 500 million yuan, about 100 billion won, in a pre-Series A round, according to Chinese and Korean trade reports on 11 November. Existing shareholders and Keli Sensing took part, and Greenland joined as a strategic investor.

Greenland plans to work with UniX AI on robot models, robot bodies, data and solutions for security, hotels and healthcare.

Trade reports say UniX AI ships more than 100 robots a month and has orders for more than 100 robots from several companies for building security, hotels, supermarkets and retail. One of its robots is also said to have made 2,156 drinks over 24 hours in a 7Fresh coffee shop of JD.com, which is described as a Guinness World Record.

The company won the hotel event at this year's World Humanoid Robot Games for the second year in a row.
