“Peggy Johnson, CEO of Agility Robotics, is surprisingly measured.”

“Peggy Johnson: CEO of Agility Robotics, previously a senior executive at Microsoft and Qualcomm.”

“Currently valued at ~$2 billion with a fundraise planned for later in 2025.”

“When we first built this robot, it was what's called classically controlled. And so engineers had to program every step of what the robot did. And when AI came on, it made it much faster and easier to teach it new skills. So that's been a real catalyst for the humanoid industry. And we'll continue to see leaps and bounds as our AI models get more and more powerful.”

“Early in my career, many, many moons ago, I was at Qualcomm during the mobile revolution. So I got to see all of that unfold going from just voice phones to computers in our pocket.”

“Our fifth generation coming out next year will be the one that scales because it's outside of the work cell. So if you can send it down to the loading dock to pick something up and it'll move amongst humans to get down there.”

“Amazon's been a great partner for us. They are the best at what they do. And so us partnering them has made us build a stronger robot, a robot that's super safe, that you have the highest in the industry level of safety that the robots have to operate in.”
