Moqi

Beijing, Beijing, China, Asia

Overview

Moqi develops real-time embodied systems that integrate hardware, software, algorithms and data for robotic applications. The company is porting proven autonomous-driving methods — such as data loops, on-device model optimization and mass-production quality control — into embodied AI. It plans to deploy robots first in commercial service settings and later move into homes, with a long-term aim of creating a self-evolving household robot. Moqi is pre-revenue and intends to accelerate development of its embodied foundation model and data-loop infrastructure using fresh capital. The startup was founded in late 2025 and is led by CEO Gao Wenli, a co-founder of cross-border logistics firm iMile, and CTO Huang Qingqiu, who previously headed AI for Huawei’s smart-driving unit. The company’s strategy reflects a winner-takes-most approach amid a financing rush in Chinese embodied intelligence.
