A thread breaks down Unitree's strategy: build a general-purpose robotics platform, sell to researchers, own manufacturing and delivery, then build developer ecosystem — now pivoting toward models. Unitree has sold 18,000 humanoid robots and open-sourced a general humanoid model. At the 2026 China Private Economy conference, Wang Xingxing said embodied AI's 'ChatGPT moment' arrives when robots complete 80% of tasks in 80% of unfamiliar scenarios via voice or text commands.
