What Youibot does

Youibot Robotics Co., Ltd. is a Shenzhen-headquartered (with registered office in Hefei, Anhui Province) Chinese industrial robotics company founded in 2017 that designs, manufactures, and sells autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) for industrial logistics and intelligent inspection. Its technology stack is anchored by proprietary SLAM navigation algorithms and expressed through a six-series hardware portfolio: L-series (lifting robots, 300–1,000 kg payload), P-series (modular platform with 10+ top-module interfaces), O-series (mobile manipulation, including the OW-12 for semiconductor Foup transfer), ATS-series (autonomous transport), AT-series (automatic trolley for warehousing), and ARIS-series (inspection, including the ARIS-IDC for data centers). Two proprietary software platforms — YOUIFleet for multi-robot fleet orchestration and YOUITMS for transportation management — sit atop the hardware layer, positioning the company as a software-hardware integrated vendor rather than a pure-hardware reseller.

The business model is enterprise B2B direct sales, with products exported to more than 30 countries and deployed across semiconductor fabs, electronics/3C manufacturing, new energy (lithium battery) workshops, automotive parts plants, e-commerce warehouses, data centers, power & utilities, and oil & gas/chemical facilities. Revenue mechanics are predominantly hardware unit sales, supplemented by scenario-driven professional services and software offerings; pricing is opaque and quote-based. The company has raised over RMB 300 million across two Series B rounds in December 2021 (with SoftBank, IDG Capital, SIG, BlueRun Ventures, Pine Venture, FG Venture, and Xicheng Jinrui as participants) and a 2024-06-14 follow-on from Dongcheng Industrial Investment, supporting large-scale production and international expansion. In 2025, Youibot was recognized as a Provincial-Level Manufacturing Single Champion Enterprise in Guangdong. Headcount is 501–1,000, and leadership includes CEO Zhang Zhaohui and co-founder Zhao Wanqiu; no public listing exists.

Core offering

Youibot designs, manufactures, and sells autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) equipped with proprietary SLAM navigation technology for industrial logistics and intelligent inspection. Its portfolio includes lifting, platform, operation, transport, picking, and inspection robot series, complemented by in-house fleet management (YOUIFleet) and transportation management (YOUITMS) software for orchestrating multi-robot deployments in factories, warehouses, data centers, and utility sites.

Product overview

Youibot is an innovative industrial robot company offering Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) with core SLAM navigation technology. The product portfolio includes six main robot series: L-Series (lifting robots with 300-1000kg payload), P-Series (versatile platform robots with modular interfaces), O-Series (mobile manipulation robots for semiconductor Foup transfer), ATS Series (autonomous transport systems), AT Series (automatic trolley robots for warehouse picking), and ARIS Series (inspection robots including ARIS-IDC for data centers). Supporting the hardware, Youibot provides two software platforms: YOUIFleet for multi-robot fleet management and YOUITMS for transportation management. The integrated solutions span industrial logistics (semiconductor, new energy, automotive, 3C manufacturing, warehouse) and intelligent inspection & maintenance (IDC, power utilities, oil & gas, chemical). The company emphasizes scenario-driven development with high-precision navigation and software-hardware integrated solutions for smart manufacturing.
