Figure AI scales BotQ to one humanoid per hour

Figure AI says its BotQ plant in the US is now producing roughly one humanoid robot per hour. In about four months the line went from near one unit per day to that pace — a 24× jump that reads less like a demo cycle and more like a factory scaling for real volume.

What Figure reported

• 350+ robot deliveries to date
• 500+ units shipped overall
• 55 robots planned this week alone
• 12,000 units per year as a stated capacity target

On the line itself, Figure added 50+ in-process checks and cites a first-pass yield above 80%. Battery assembly is running at 99.3% efficiency, and the team has produced 9,000+ actuators. Each robot still passes 80+ functional tests — squat, run, and related stress checks — before it ships.

Helix System 0 update

Figure also shipped a Helix System 0 update. Earlier builds leaned on proprioception; this version adds stereo vision so units can build a 3D read of the room. That is what backs the newer stair and uneven-floor demos on Figure 03 hardware.

What this means for HomeBotRadar

For our readers, the home-market signal is not a living-room price tag yet — it is production cadence plus OTA fleet tooling.

We are not changing Figure 02 scores on this news alone. Consumer availability is still limited, and we have no official home MSRP. We will revisit readiness and reality when buy-or-ship signals get clearer.
