GENISOM AI closes successive funding rounds totaling hundreds of millions of yuan
GENISOM AI disclosed a run of funding rounds that add up to hundreds of millions of yuan. Backers in the latest round include AGIBOT, Gui'an Kunpeng Fund, Jinma Rides, KELI SENSING TECHNOLOGY, and Shenzhen Highpower Technology Co., Ltd. The company plans to scale core products, expand a new product lineup, strengthen channels, build out supply chain capacity, and upgrade partner enablement.
The thesis is straightforward: embodied intelligence shipped at scale. GENISOM AI is building both the hardware and software stack, then placing it into real scenarios where reliability and unit economics can be measured.
Why it matters for investors
- Signals of scale: 5,000 mass-production deliveries by late December 2025; revenue over 100 million yuan; signed intent orders above 300 million yuan.
- Productization: self-developed integrated joint modules evolve into a standardized, platform-based series, reducing development barriers for partners and opening a component revenue stream.
- Software leverage: the MATRiX open-source simulation platform targets lower cost, higher speed, and faster data iteration from sim-to-real-key to deployment velocity.
- Go-to-market: proceeds earmarked for channels, supply chain, and partner enablement suggest a shift from prototyping to distribution, service, and support at scale.
Product lineup at a glance
Gangbeng L1 is a lightweight quadruped built for security and inspection in medium- to light-load scenarios. It weighs 15 kg and includes IP54 protection, 20 cm obstacle clearance, and 50% power redundancy for reliability during patrols.
Tongchui M1 is the heavy-duty model tuned for electricity and firefighting environments. It weighs 35 kg, delivers a near 1:1 payload ratio, carries an IP67 rating, and operates from -20°C to 55°C for outdoor and harsh-condition work.

Deployment traction
In power, the company's quadrupeds have been used in inspection tasks at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. In firefighting, it rolled out an air-ground collaborative rescue solution. In commercial entertainment, it launched the "Gangbeng Big Challenge" parent-child project to explore fresh business models and traffic.
Operating model: how the pieces fit
- Hardware base: standardized joint modules lower partner integration time and encourage a broader ecosystem.
- Software stack: MATRiX supports scenario building, simulation, and debugging to compress testing cycles and reduce field failures.
- Vertical entry points: utilities, public safety, and entertainment provide varied demand profiles and recurring service opportunities.
Key watch items for the next 12 months
- Conversion of signed intent orders into booked revenue and deliveries.
- Gross margin trend across robots vs. module sales; service and software attach rates.
- Channel buildout: partner count, regional coverage, and service SLAs.
- MATRiX adoption outside the company's own deployments; developer activity and contributions.
- Supply chain depth for critical components and lead-time stability.
- Compliance and safety certifications for sectors like power and firefighting.
What this means for capital allocation
- Proof points are lining up around shipment volume and signed demand; the next test is margins and repeatability of deployments.
- Module sales to partners could diversify revenue and reduce working-capital intensity compared with full-robot shipments.
- Software that shortens time-to-field can improve cash conversion and reduce support costs over the life of a deployment.
