Agility Robotics is opening a new training center for its Digit robots in Fremont, California, according to TechCrunch. The location is notable because Fremont is also home to Tesla's long-running vehicle factory, putting one of the better-known warehouse humanoid companies closer to a dense Bay Area robotics and manufacturing labor market.

The company has been pushing Digit as an industrial humanoid for repetitive logistics and material-handling work rather than as a general household robot. Agility's own product materials describe Digit, the humanoid robot, alongside workflow automation, deployment support, and monitoring infrastructure for industrial customers.

The Fremont site should be read as a deployment and training step, not a proof point that humanoids are ready for every factory floor. Training centers matter because physical robots need site-specific testing, customer education, maintenance routines, and safety processes before they can move from pilot programs into repeatable commercial operations.

Agility already has a larger scaling story underway. In June, the company announced plans to go public through a SPAC merger valuing it at $2.5 billion before new money, with proceeds aimed at expanding Digit production and deployments. The new California facility adds a practical layer to that pitch: customers and partners need places where humanoid systems can be configured, observed, and supported outside carefully staged demos.

The conservative signal is that humanoid robotics is continuing to move from lab narrative toward operations infrastructure. The hard questions remain production capacity, uptime, safety, and cost per task, but a dedicated training center gives Agility another venue to work through those constraints with real users.
