Founded in 2014, KEYi Technology builds interactive robots that merge bionic motion control, multi-modal sensing and natural language processing to create an emotion-aware experience. Its flagship product, the Loona household pet robot, offers companionship, entertainment, remote monitoring and graphical programming features. Sales momentum has accelerated: a four-day Black Friday promotion (Nov. 28–Dec. 1) moved 5,101 units, a 538% year-on-year jump, and November sales reached 10,000 units, up 161%, bringing Loona’s cumulative global sales to more than 90,000 units. At CES 2026 the company introduced Loona Deskmate, positioned as the world’s first desktop assistant robot for personal office use, integrating emotional interaction, schedule management, meeting assistance and fast charging. KEYi’s proprietary emotional-interaction model underpins its product line and is a current focus of R&D investment. Proceeds from its latest financing will support further development of this model, mass production and market rollout of new products, and recruitment of top AI talent. The company’s growing sales base and continued product expansion underscore its push toward large-scale commercialization.
