What GigaAI does

GigaAI (极佳视界 / 极佳科技) is a Chinese spatial-intelligence company founded in 2023, headquartered in Beijing, and operating seven R&D and operations centers across China (Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Wuhan, and Wuxi). It builds a vertically integrated embodied-AI stack centered on world models: GigaWorld is a fully open-sourced world-model framework that synthesizes embodied interaction data and provides closed-loop simulation and reinforcement-learning environments; GigaBrain is a vision-language-action (VLA) foundation model trained on world-model-generated data to enable real-robot generalization; and Maker H01 is a native humanoid body (~1.6m tall, 20+ degrees of freedom, dual-arm + mobile-base) that integrates natively with GigaBrain and GigaWorld for end-to-end deployment. The same world-model paradigm is commercialized for autonomous driving via the DriveDreamer product family (DriveDreamer, DriveDreamer-2, DriveDreamer4D, ReconDreamer, UniDriveDreamer), which has been delivered to 20+ leading Chinese automotive OEMs and ADAS Tier-1s. Its research output includes four top-tier AI conference acceptances: ECCV 2024 Most Influential Paper (DriveDreamer), AAAI 2025 (DriveDreamer-2), and dual CVPR 2025 acceptances (DriveDreamer4D, ReconDreamer).

GigaAI monetizes through three principal streams. The primary current stream is enterprise licensing of DriveDreamer world-model software to automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers under multi-year enterprise contracts (signed customers include GAC, Li Auto, BYD, and Xpeng). The second stream is hardware revenue from embodied AI robots deployed via a strategic manufacturing partnership with Longsheng Weirui (a subsidiary of listed Longsheng Technology, 300680.SZ), under a three-year contract to deploy 1,000 units across public institutions and third-party enterprises in Wuxi (first batch verified and delivered). The third stream is a planned consumer home-robotics offering via the SeeLight S1 home humanoid robot (100,000 yuan target price by June 2027, with 100 free-trial units in Wuhan homes in H1 2027), launched in cooperation with the Hubei Humanoid Robot Innovation Center and Hubei Humanoid Robot Industry Alliance. Distribution is multi-channel: direct enterprise field sales for DriveDreamer, OEM manufacturing for Maker robots, government/alliance channels for home robotics, and developer-led open-source distribution for GigaWorld-0 and the GigaBrain training/deployment toolchain.

The company scaled rapidly from a September 2024 angel and angel+ round of nearly 50 million yuan (investors include BAIC Investment and Qiji Chuangtan) to substantially larger 2025-2026 institutional rounds featuring Huawei Hubble, Tsinghua Holdings Capital, CICC Capital, Fortune Venture Capital, Heding, Puchao Capital, and others. Industry recognition includes the 2025 Touzhong (投中榜) "Sharp Company" award, the 2025 Cyzone 100 Future Unicorns designation, and a CES 2026 showcase in Las Vegas. The 1.6m Maker H01 robot entered scaled delivery in January 2026, and GigaBrain-0.5M* — trained via RAMP (Reinforcement leArning via world Model-conditioned Policy) on 10,931 hours of data — achieved near-perfect sustained success on home laundry folding, coffee service, and industrial box folding tasks.

Core offering

GigaAI builds a vertically integrated embodied AI stack comprising a world-model data and simulation platform (GigaWorld), a vision-language-action (VLA) foundation model (GigaBrain), and a native physical humanoid robot body (Maker H01). The same world-model paradigm is commercialized as the DriveDreamer product family for autonomous-driving data generation, scene reconstruction, and closed-loop simulation, delivered to 20+ automotive OEMs and Tier-1s.

Product overview

GigaAI (极佳视界 / 极佳科技) is a single-vendor embodied-AI and general-robotics platform-plus-modules company organized around an explicit "model — body — scenario" three-in-one architecture: GigaWorld is the foundational world-model data and simulation platform, GigaBrain is the universal embodied VLA foundation model stack (GigaBrain-0 / GigaBrain-0.5 / GigaBrain-0.5M*), and Maker H01 (with SeeLight S1 as a home-focused variant) is the native physical body that runs GigaBrain. The DriveDreamer family (DriveDreamer, DriveDreamer-2, DriveDreamer4D, ReconDreamer, UniDriveDreamer) is a parallel commercial world-model product line for the autonomous-driving industry, leveraging the same underlying world-model research. RAMP is the training paradigm that ties GigaWorld's predictions into GigaBrain's reinforcement learning. Together these named products form a closed-loop ecosystem that GigaAI markets as its path to physical AGI ("三位一体攀登物理AGI的高峰").
