Amio Robotics, a company focused on industrial automation, is undergoing significant organizational restructuring. Key leadership figures, including the Chief Technology Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and the head of product, have resigned from their positions.
The company's workforce has been reduced from its peak of approximately 130 employees to about 70 people, including interns. Further staff optimization processes are currently underway at the firm.
Anker Innovations, which served as both the lead investor for the seed round and the incubator for the startup, has reportedly decided to stop providing additional funding to the company. Sources indicate that this decision is linked to the long commercialization cycle of embodied AI and current cash flow issues at Amio.
Despite the internal changes, an investment institution involved in the company stated that Amio Robotics continues to operate normally. The company was founded in September 2024 by Liu Fang, a former leader in autonomous driving technology at Xiaomi.
