PrimeBOT, a China-based robotics company, unveiled the Qiyuan T1 in July 2026, calling it the world's first transformable personal humanoid robot.
PrimeBOT is a China-based robotics company focused on humanoid robots for personal and consumer use. In July 2026, the company introduced a "Personal Robots" category framing at the United Nations' AI for Good Summit in Geneva. AI for Good is a long-running annual UN summit series, organized by the International Telecommunication Union, that brings together companies, researchers, and policymakers to discuss AI and robotics applications aimed at the UN Sustainable Development Goals, and it regularly includes a robotics showcase where hardware makers demonstrate humanoid and service robots to a policy and industry audience. PrimeBOT's appearance there placed its personal-robot positioning in front of that international policy and industry audience.
Later the same month, on July 25, 2026, PrimeBOT unveiled the Qiyuan T1, which the company describes as the world's first transformable personal humanoid robot, indicating a product built around some form of reconfigurable or shape-changing mechanical design rather than a fixed humanoid chassis.
Beyond these two announcements, publicly available and independently verifiable information about PrimeBOT, including its founding year, headquarters address, employee count, leadership, funding history, and official contact or social media channels, could not be confirmed from the company's website or other reputable sources at the time of this review, and those fields have been left blank rather than estimated. The company's official website is listed as primebot.cn; the site is a JavaScript-rendered application that could not be fully extracted as text during this review, which limited the amount of verifiable detail available for this profile. Further direct research against the company's site, its press materials, or Chinese-language technology press would be needed to confirm additional facts such as product specifications, pricing, manufacturing base, and business model before this profile can be expanded to full detail.
