Robot Era Just Closed Another $200M and Quietly Pulled SF Express Onto an Embodied-AI Customs Lane. Beijing's Humanoid Race Is No Longer About Demos.

On April 27, Caixin reported that Beijing-based Robot Era closed a fresh round of more than $200M, taking total funding past $346M and pushing valuation well clear of the $1.5B post-money it set in March.

SF Express, China's largest courier, is already running embodied-AI customs inspection with Robot Era hardware on cross-border cargo lanes.
