Top 5 Autonomous Mobile Robot Companies Leading in 2025: Comprehensive Profiles and Market Insights

Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) are reshaping logistics, manufacturing, and industrial operations in 2025. As industries strive to optimize labor, reduce costs, and increase operational flexibility, AMRs are becoming indispensable tools across warehouses, factories, and even healthcare settings. This article explores five leading AMR companies in 2025, Amazon Robotics, Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR), Geek+, Zebra Technologies, and Agility Robotics, as well as the technologies powering their growth and the broader market landscape.

AMRs in 2025: A Booming Market

The AMR industry is experiencing explosive growth, driven by surging e-commerce, labor shortages, and the push for flexible automation. Analysts project the global AMR market to reach $5.87 billion by the end of 2025, with forecasts suggesting a potential rise to $29.7 billion by 2034, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 16.9% and 22.3%. While warehousing remains the largest sector, AMRs are expanding into healthcare, food services, and consumer goods industries.

Investment patterns also reflect a maturing market: in Q1 2025, over 70% of robotics venture capital went into task-specific, utility-focused robotics, signaling demand for robust, high-ROI automation tools.

1. Amazon Robotics: Dominance Through Deep Integration

Amazon Robotics remains a dominant force in 2025. With over a decade of experience deploying warehouse robots at scale, Amazon continues to integrate advanced SLAM navigation, machine vision, and real-time data analytics into its AMR systems.

In 2024, Amazon unveiled the Proteus AMR, designed to autonomously transport go-carts throughout fulfillment centers. It uses advanced perception and AI to navigate around human workers safely. Additionally, Amazon-backed Skild AIreleased a groundbreaking multi-purpose robot platform in 2025. Dubbed the Skild Brain, this system allows robots to learn new tasks and environments through both real-world experience and simulation, enabling general-purpose functionality across multiple Amazon operations.

The company’s AMRs are tightly integrated with Amazon’s proprietary warehouse management systems (WMS), giving them an edge in efficiency, path optimization, and real-time adaptation.

2. Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR): Fleet Flexibility for Every Scale

Mobile Industrial Robots (MiR), a Teradyne company, has built its reputation on user-friendly, modular AMRs that fit operations of all sizes, from small workshops to global manufacturing plants. In 2025, MiR continues to lead with its easy-to-deploy robots and intuitive fleet management software.

MiR’s robots use robust SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) navigation and are designed for seamless human-robot interaction. This makes them particularly effective in environments where safety and flexibility are paramount.

The company's fleet management system enables coordination across multiple robots and integrates with MES and ERP systems, allowing manufacturers to scale operations without disruption. As manufacturers seek solutions that can adapt with minimal downtime, MiR's plug-and-play appeal remains strong.

3. Geek+: AI-Powered Automation for Warehousing

Beijing-based Geek+ has carved out a leadership position in warehouse robotics, particularly for e-commerce and logistics. Its AMRs specialize in goods-to-person fulfillment, autonomous sorting, and intelligent inventory transport.

What sets Geek+ apart in 2025 is its investment in AI and cloud-based fleet coordination. The company’s robots use high-resolution LiDAR and onboard processors to make adaptive routing decisions in real time. Meanwhile, its centralized software platform provides customers with remote monitoring, predictive maintenance alerts, and performance analytics.

Popular with large-scale retailers and 3PLs, Geek+ robots help reduce human labor, increase pick accuracy, and enable 24/7 fulfillment operations. As order volume and SKU complexity grow, companies turn to Geek+ for scalable warehouse efficiency.

4. Zebra Technologies: Enterprise-Grade Automation with Fetch Robotics

Zebra Technologies entered the AMR market by acquiring Fetch Robotics, and in 2025, it's leveraging this integration to offer robust, enterprise-ready automation tools. With its foundation in barcode scanning, data capture, and IoT systems, Zebra brings AMRs into harmony with existing enterprise software.

The Freight500 and Freight1500 AMRs are built for heavy-duty material movement and are easily integrated into warehouse and manufacturing environments.

Laser navigation, sensor fusion, and cloud-based fleet tools allow these AMRs to move accurately through busy industrial spaces.

Zebra’s core strength lies in interoperability. By combining real-time location tracking with analytics dashboards and mobile data capture, Zebra’s AMRs help organizations improve visibility, reduce stockouts, and lower operational risk.

5. Agility Robotics: Humanoid AMRs for the Future of Labor

Agility Robotics takes a different path, pushing the boundaries of mobility and form factor. Their Digit robot, a bipedal, humanoid AMR, is designed to navigate stairs, uneven floors, and other complex environments where wheeled robots fall short.

Digit’s applications include light manufacturing, package handling, and even hospital deliveries. In 2025, Agility is piloting Digit across multiple healthcare and logistics providers. Its key innovations include:

• Real-time perception and obstacle avoidance

• AI-based task adaptability

• Legged locomotion for indoor/outdoor use

While humanoid AMRs like Digit are still in limited commercial deployment, their future potential is undeniable. Agility is a pioneer in bringing legged autonomy into real-world industrial environments.
