## Summary

The humanoid robotics industry is diverging between hype and real-world deployment capability: Unitree has already reported profitable results, Figure AI has secured a high valuation on the strength of its model narrative, Tesla is still exploring mass production, and some startups have run into delivery and funding difficulties. Figure published test results for Helix 2.5: in 30 unfamiliar households where no data had been collected, the robot completed three task types—tidying toys, folding towels, and making beds—with a 56% success rate under the full-task completion standard. 1X states on the NEO product page that early users receive "basic autonomous capability," and that complex tasks can be completed with scheduled remote supervision and assistance from experts.
