Three embodied data companies secure funding within ten days; why is the data business without robot hardware favored by capital?

In the second half of 2026, as embodied intelligence funding cooled, Maxinsights, Jingshuo Technology, and Jianzhi Robotics completed a $30 million seed round, a several tens of millions of dollars Pre-A round, and a $100 million A+ round, respectively, within ten days. None of the three companies builds complete robots; their core teams have backgrounds in autonomous driving data closed loops, and they enter data supply through a global collection network, a data platform spun off from WeRide, and a multimodal collection production line, respectively. The article points out that data volume does not equal data value, and long-term competitiveness depends on data production and cross-embodiment reuse capabilities.
