About Pudu Robotics

Pudu Robotics builds commercial robots across four current business lines: service delivery, commercial cleaning, industrial delivery and general embodied AI. Delivery robots serve hospitality, retail and healthcare sites; cleaning systems cover facilities and large commercial floors; T-series mobile robots move materials in factories and warehouses; newer D-series and FlashBot Arm systems add manipulation and humanoid forms.

The company combines navigation, multi-robot scheduling, task planning and fleet operation across these product families. By July 2026, Pudu reported more than 130,000 robots shipped across over 85 countries and regions. Its established deployment base is concentrated in wheeled delivery and cleaning, with additional industrial traction from the T300. Humanoid and manipulation products are newer parts of the portfolio.
