With shipments expected later this year and 10,000 units planned for 2027, the 1X CEO says he would like NEO to take a cab and show up at your home, knocking on the door.

Norwegian startup 1X Technologies — backed by OpenAI — has opened a 58,000 sq ft factory in Hayward, California: America's first fully vertically integrated humanoid robot factory. The plan? Build 10,000 NEO home robots in the first year. NEO can lift 70kg, runs at 6.2 m/s, operates at just 22 decibels, and is available for $20,000 or $499/month. Consumer shipments begin late 2026.
