Apptronik and Jabil: robots that build robots

Jabil will help scale Apollo production and put Apollo to work in its own plants, eventually including the lines that build Apollos.

What happened

On 19–20 August 2026, Apptronik and contract manufacturer Jabil expanded their relationship. Jabil will help scale production of the Apollo humanoid and deploy Apollo units inside its own manufacturing operations. Over time that includes the lines that assemble Apollos.

Why it matters

Most humanoid deals are still pilots. This one turns a pilot into a manufacturing partnership, and that kind of step moves a company from demos to fleets. Apollo is already in pilot at Mercedes-Benz and moving into GXO logistics. Apptronik has raised more than $935 million in Series A funding, including a $520 million extension in February 2026.
