1X Technologies

1X Technologies is a Norwegian-American robotics and artificial intelligence company developing general-purpose humanoid robots for home environments. The company is headquartered in Palo Alto, California, with main manufacturing operations in Hayward and additional manufacturing in Moss, Norway.

1X Technologies was founded in 2014 by Norwegian roboticist Bernt Øivind Børnich under the name Halodi Robotics. The company initially focused on developing safe actuators and full-body control systems for industrial and healthcare robotics.

In 2018, it released its first humanoid robot, EVE, designed for logistics, security, and medical environments.

In 2022, the company rebranded as 1X Technologies and shifted its focus to domestic robotics, developing humanoid assistants intended for use in private homes.

In March 2023, 1X raised $23.5 million in Series A2 funding, led by the OpenAI Startup Fund, with participation from Tiger Global, Sandwater, Alliance Ventures, and Skagerak Capital.

In January 2024, the company secured $100 million in Series B funding led by EQT Ventures, alongside Samsung NEXT, Nistad Group, and existing investors.

In September 2025, it was reported that 1X Technologies was seeking to raise $1 billion in new funding to support the development and deployment of its humanoid robots for home environments.

EVE is a wheeled humanoid robot designed for industrial and institutional use in logistics, security, and healthcare. It served as a platform for real-world testing of 1X's proprietary actuation, perception, and manipulation technologies.
