Quick Answer

Agility Robotics is valued at $2.5 billion in its pending SPAC merger, agreed June 24, 2026, up from a reported ~$2.1 billion after a $400 million Series C round in early 2025 and roughly $180 million raised across its first three funding rounds since 2018.

Agility Robotics is valued at $2.5 billion under the SPAC merger agreement it signed on June 24, 2026 — up from a reported ~$2.1 billion after its $400 million Series C just over a year earlier, and roughly $180 million raised across its first three rounds since 2018.

Agility Robotics builds Digit, a bipedal humanoid robot rented to logistics operators for warehouse work. Its valuation has climbed through four disclosed funding events since 2018, culminating in the pre-money valuation set by its pending SPAC merger with Churchill Capital Corp XI, covered in full in our Agility Robotics IPO breakdown. This post traces how it got there.

Why Agility Robotics' Series C Valuation Was Never Officially Confirmed

Agility Robotics' $400 million Series C is the murkiest data point in its history. SiliconANGLE reported on April 1, 2025 that the round, first disclosed by The Information, would value the company at roughly $1.75 billion pre-money once finalized — implying a post-money figure near $2.1 billion to $2.15 billion — led by WP Global's venture arm, with SoftBank and Amazon also named as participants. PitchBook data cited in that reporting showed the round had already closed, but Agility Robotics itself never issued a public announcement confirming the amount or the valuation.

That gap between "reported" and "confirmed" matters here: every number in this section traces back to anonymous-sourced reporting and third-party deal-tracking data, not a company press release or an SEC filing, which is also why Agility's own SPAC merger materials are the first fully company-confirmed valuation figure in its history.

What's Driving the Valuation: Digit's Commercial Deployments

Agility's valuation step-ups track its move from pilots to paid commercial deployments of Digit, its bipedal humanoid robot. At GXO Logistics' warehouse, Digit has moved more than 100,000 totes in a commercial robots-as-a-service deployment as of late 2025, automating tote-handling tasks on the floor. TechCrunch reported on February 19, 2026 that Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada signed a commercial robots-as-a-service agreement for seven Digit units, following a year-long pilot, to unload parts totes from an automated warehouse tugger at the Canadian plant that builds RAV4 SUVs.

Both deals use the same robots-as-a-service structure: customers pay for Digit's labor rather than buying the hardware outright, which lets Agility book recurring revenue per deployment instead of one-time hardware sales — a model investors in the Series C and the SPAC deal are effectively pricing alongside the hardware itself.

What the headline misses

A "$180M to $2.5B" valuation arc reads as a clean growth story, but the two most important numbers in it, the Series C's $400 million size and its ~$2.1 billion valuation, were never confirmed by Agility Robotics itself. If the actual Series C terms differ meaningfully from what The Information and SiliconANGLE reported, the "16-19% premium" the SPAC deal appears to represent over the last private round could be larger or smaller than it looks. The SPAC valuation is also still provisional: the deal has SEC effectiveness but has not closed, and remains subject to a shareholder vote, exchange approval, and other customary conditions.

Bottom line: Agility Robotics' valuation has climbed from undisclosed figures at its 2018 and 2022 rounds to a reported ~$2.1 billion at its $400 million 2025 Series C, and now to a company-confirmed $2.5 billion pre-money valuation in its pending SPAC merger with Churchill Capital Corp XI. Total disclosed funding stood at roughly $180 million through the 2022 Series B, before the separate $400 million Series C and the new capital the SPAC deal is expected to bring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Agility Robotics' valuation in 2026?

Agility Robotics is valued at $2.5 billion pre-money under the SPAC merger agreement it signed with Churchill Capital Corp XI on June 24, 2026, which the SEC declared effective on October 13, 2026. That is up from a valuation reported at roughly $2.1 billion after the company's $400 million Series C round closed in early 2025, per SiliconANGLE.

How much has Agility Robotics raised in total?

Agility Robotics had raised about $180 million across its first three disclosed rounds as of its April 2022 Series B, including an $8 million early round in 2018, a $20.25 million round, and a $150 million Series B led by DCVC and Playground Global, per TechCrunch. It then raised a separate $400 million Series C in early 2025, bringing total disclosed funding to roughly $580 million before the pending SPAC merger's new capital.

What valuation did Agility Robotics' Series C round set?

Agility Robotics' $400 million Series C, which PitchBook data shows closed around March 31, 2025, set a valuation reported at approximately $1.75 billion pre-money, implying a post-money figure near $2.1 billion to $2.15 billion, according to SiliconANGLE's reporting on a round led by WP Global with SoftBank and Amazon participating. Agility itself did not publicly confirm the figure at the time.

Who are Agility Robotics' top investors?

Agility Robotics' investor list spans its 2018 seed round through its pending SPAC deal: Playground Global and Sony Innovation Fund backed the 2018 round; DCVC and Playground Global co-led the 2022 Series B, with Amazon's Industrial Innovation Fund participating; WP Global led the 2025 Series C with SoftBank and Amazon also named as participants; and Foxconn leads the $200 million PIPE financing tied to the 2026 SPAC merger.

How does Agility Robotics' SPAC valuation compare to its last private round?

The $2.5 billion pre-money valuation in Agility Robotics' SPAC merger is roughly 16-19% above the approximately $2.1-2.15 billion valuation reported for its March 2025 Series C, a premium that values the 15 months of additional commercial deployments and revenue the company has reported since that round.
