Agility Robotics says its humanoid robot, Digit, has moved more than 100,000 totes in commercial operation at GXO Logistics’ facility in Flowery Branch, Georgia – a milestone the company describes as evidence of real industrial throughput rather than laboratory testing. The company says the achievement reflects the growing need for scalable automation in logistics as operators face rising volumes and persistent labour shortages. Agility has long argued that humanoids must prove reliability across thousands of cycles before they can be considered viable tools rather than novelty machines. In a statement marking the milestone, the company said Digit has been deployed to handle tasks such as picking totes on and off autonomous mobile robots, loading items onto conveyors, and stacking containers at different floor locations – all within a live fulfilment workflow. By performing multiple unrelated tasks, Agility says Digit is demonstrating the capabilities of a “general-purpose humanoid”, a category defined by mobility and dexterity within human-designed environments.
