We finally have a global benchmark for humanoid robot sales. Around 7,000 humanoids were sold worldwide in 2025 for industrial and professional service use, according to the International Federation of Robotics. And many still weren’t doing productive work. The IFR says a large share went to research institutions and companies collecting data to train AI models, while automakers are typically testing only single or double-digit fleets. robotico.market/news/around-…
