About

iFLYTEK Co., Ltd. (SZSE: 002230), founded in 1999 and headquartered in Hefei, is a listed Chinese artificial-intelligence company built around intelligent speech, cognitive intelligence and large-model technology, with businesses spanning education, healthcare, office, automotive and consumer hardware. In robotics the company positions itself as an upstream embodied-AI brain and multimodal interaction provider rather than a pure robot maker: it launched the iFLYTEK Robot Super Brain platform (AIBOT) in 2022 and version 2.0 in 2024, and disclosed in 2025 that the platform serves about 90% of China's intelligent robot makers across humanoid, quadruped, public-service and desktop robots. It is a deputy head unit of the humanoid-robot standardization working group under China's national robotics standardization committee. Since 2023 it has shown humanoid-robot technology prototypes built with partners on its platform, and in 2026 it released the AstronClaw software-hardware agent matrix and three upgraded interaction platforms, together with the Guide01 professional-grade service guide robot for exhibition halls, tourism and retail.
