Embodied AI startup Zhongke Diwuji, which supplies the "brain" for Unitree, raised hundreds of millions of yuan

给宇树做“大脑”的具身智能公司，融资数亿元，红杉中国投了

Zhongke Diwuji completed Pre-A and Pre-A+ rounds worth hundreds of millions of yuan within one month, and became a Unitree core ecosystem partner in Jan 2026. Since 2025, it has supplied the "brain" model for Unitree robots; the company says its FAM models use secondary pretraining and heatmap alignment to learn new tasks from 3-5 real-robot demos, with 97% success on basic tasks. The signal to watch is commercialization: it is moving from POC to power inspection, industrial handling, and retail deployments, charging robot OEMs per-device license.

Why it matters: Embodied AI plus a Unitree supplier angle gives HKR-H and HKR-R. The story adds company-reported facts—3-5 real-robot demos, 97% base-task success, per-robot licensing—so HKR-K passes; it stays below 85 because the funding size is vague and no third-party replication is disclosed
