AgiBot previewed its GO-3 embodied foundational model on 29 October 2026, stating plans to open-source the model by year-end. The unveiling came during AgiBot’s Innovation Day, where the company emphasized deployment-stage readiness over lab-bound demonstrations. Unlike industry demonstrations focused on difficult movements and robot stunts, the event centered on practical deployment frameworks.

What changed for buyers

Buyers seeking ready-to-deploy humanoid robots can continue ordering the AgiBot A2 series. The A2 Lite version is listed at $44,560 on the maker’s global store, though prices exclude taxes, duties, and delivery. Buyers should note that GO-3 Preview is presented as a preview.

What the maker says

AgiBot says the GO-3 Preview introduces a predictive decision-making system called “predict first, then act.” This system has the robot internally consider several possible situations before selecting a solution and acting. Maker-stated advancements include:

  • Integration of multimodal perception and task planning
  • WITA-OMNI interaction model with a fastest reported response time of 400 milliseconds
  • Compatibility with 73 languages and 20+ emotional expressions
  • Lingqu OS 1.0 and AHA3 hardware architecture were presented as efforts to unify AgiBot’s software and hardware interfaces

AgiBot plans to fully open-source the GO-3 Preview by the end of 2026.

How it compares

Compared to the available AgiBot A2, the GO-3 Preview emphasizes task understanding and predictive decision-making. The A2 series focuses on reception, guided tours, and customer service with 40+ degrees of freedom and swappable batteries. The GO-3 shifts focus toward generalized task intelligence.

It differs from the available Digit, listed at $250,000. It also contrasts with leasing options offered through AgiBot's RaaS platform, which starts at $899 for one day.

The company behind it

Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Shanghai, AgiBot has rapidly scaled production, shipping over 5,100 units in 2025. The company operates under a “1 Robotic Body + 3 Intelligence” model, combining interaction, manipulation, and locomotion intelligence. It entered the U.S. market at CES 2026 and maintains a global store at store.agibot.com.

Still unconfirmed

  • Final pricing and availability of the GO-3 Preview remain unannounced
  • Whether the open-sourced version will include full hardware schematics or be limited to software/models
  • Commercial deployment timeline beyond the preview stage
