Unitree Robotics

Unitree Robotics has established itself as a leading force in making advanced robotics accessible and affordable. Founded in 2016 in Hangzhou, China, the company first gained widespread attention with its Go1 quadruped robot, which brought the price of a capable robotic dog down to a fraction of what competitors were charging. This approach of delivering high-performance robots at competitive price points has become a defining characteristic of the brand.

Building on its success in quadruped robotics, Unitree has expanded aggressively into the humanoid space with the G1 and H1 platforms. The H1 is a full-size humanoid robot capable of dynamic locomotion, while the more compact G1 targets a broader market with its lower price point and versatile design. Both robots leverage Unitree’s deep expertise in motor control, reinforcement learning, and mass manufacturing.

Unitree’s ability to iterate quickly, scale production, and maintain aggressive pricing has positioned it as one of the most important players in the global humanoid robotics race. The company continues to push boundaries in locomotion speed, dexterity, and real-world deployment scenarios, making humanoid robots a near-term reality rather than a distant aspiration.
