HumanoidEngineAI
Founded by Zhao Tongyang, a humanoid-robotics veteran of 10+ years whose 2020 startup was acquired by XPeng and who later led PengXing Intelligence. EngineAI started with RMB 1M registered capital and just RMB 200K on hand, rallying its core team via equity incentives; ~80% of its 170 staff are in R&D. Its SA01 and T800 mass-produced bipeds make it one of Shenzhen's 'Eight Great Robotics' players. In June 2026 it reportedly filed confidentially for a HKEX IPO with CICC and CITIC Securities, at a valuation above RMB 10B.
