Video: ‘Hardest working’ US humanoid robot moves 100,000 totes in warehouse milestone

Agility Robotics, an Oregon-based company, announced that its humanoid robot Digit has moved over 100,000 totes during live operations at a GXO Logistics warehouse in Flowery Branch, Georgia. This milestone marks a significant advancement in demonstrating the practical, high-volume industrial capabilities of humanoid robots beyond polished demos. Digit’s role involves transferring inventory from autonomous mobile robots to conveyors, performing “last meter” tasks that require human-like dexterity—work that complements the strengths of AMRs and fixed robotic arms. This achievement positions Agility Robotics as a leader in industrial validation of humanoid robots, especially as part of GXO’s broader initiative to test a humanoid workforce alongside other robotics providers. The milestone also highlights the competitive landscape, with rival company Figure recently reporting its fleet handled about 90,000 sheet-metal parts, placing Agility slightly ahead in real-world output. Agility emphasizes the importance of repetition, consistency, and safety in live warehouse environments, showcasing Digit’s ability to operate reliably across
