Agility

There won't be one "ChatGPT moment" for robotics. Our co-founder & Chief Robot Officer Jonathan Hurst makes the case in @IEEESpectrum : progress comes through coordinated AI systems, real deployments, and hard lessons you can't learn in a lab. 🔗: bit.ly/49ImgrS

Honored to be recognized in the 2026 RBR50 x @therobotreport. This one belongs to GXO Logistics, Mercado Libre, Schaeffler, and every partner who trusted Digit on their floor. 100,000+ totes moved. Real work, real results. Catch our CTO Pras Velagapudi on the keynote stage at Robotics Summit — May 27 in Boston.

Digit’s been clocked in since 2023, streaming continuous operations.

Digit hasn’t had to run during customer deployments yet, but those #humanoid marathon videos really got it inspired. The only way to prove if simulated policies actually translate is to just do it.

A million warehouse and logistics jobs sit unfilled in the US — and the number is growing. Agility CEO @PeggyJ joined @PeterDiamandis at #AbundanceSummit to share what Digit is doing about it today: autonomous, deployed, and lifting 35-pound payloads on real factory floors.

Chinese robots in American workplaces raise real questions about data security and accountability. @JoannaStern asked them — and @DamionShelton answered. Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=ucy9VT…

We're hiring a Senior AI Research Engineer to help us close the sim-to-real gap on our commercially deployed humanoid. Join us: agilityrobotics.com/about/job-post… #AgilityRobotics

Dynamically balanced robots can shift their center of mass to accommodate loads without tipping over. Getting #Digit to stand on one leg pushes the limits of our sim-to-real pipeline training methodologies – even the slightest model mismatches can lead to instability.

Running a half-marathon faster than a human is impressive. Moving safely through a facility filled with people is harder. @Sciam’s @denibechard challenges the difference and asked @agilityrobotics’ Jonathan Hurst to explain it. scientificamerican.com/article/a-huma…

The integrity of the software controlling Digit is critical to providing a tireless partner for our customers. We’re hiring a Manager of Robotics Test Infrastructure and Release to define what "ready to release" means and hold that bar steady. Apply now: agilityrobotics.com/about/job-post…

The more Digit lifts, the more coordination our controller needs and resilience our hardware requires. We build new objects in sim so that we can account for load distribution, grip forces, and center of mass changes – resulting in a policy that translates to the real world.

@NBCNews' Brian Cheung just dropped in on Digit at Schaeffler's Cheraw, SC plant. He didn't just see Digit’s impact on a real manufacturing line today, he saw a future where humanoids can help with the most taxing labor everywhere. Here’s a glimpse of Brian’s visit: bit.ly/3NSA9fC Watch the full segment on NBC News NOW: nbcnews.to/47NeY5m

Our CEO, @PeggyJ, shared her optimistic vision of what Digit unlocks for the future of industrial innovation on the #FutureBackDrinking Podcast from @TIME and @PepsiCo. Catch the whole conversation and hear how she did in the lightning round: apple.co/47KqePP or youtube.com/watch?v=MB4my_…

Getting Digit to dance takes more than putting on some fancy shoes – our AI Team can teach Digit new whole-body control capabilities overnight. Using raw motion data from mocap, animation, and teleop methods, Digit gets new skills through sim-to-real reinforcement training.

At Agility, rigorous analyses lead to exacting results. We’re hiring a Staff Hardware Test Engineer to establish protocols that become the new industry standard. Come be a part of our team: bit.ly/4sFbxG8

Faster AI model training means faster, lower-cost humanoid deployment. Big news for large enterprises with high-volume, repetitive physical labor needs. Watch the full Commerce, Science, and Transportation Subcommittee hearing featuring Damion Shelton, Co-Founder of Agility: bit.ly/4lPyyDM
