Agility Robotics Is Public: AGLT Begins Trading After the Churchill XI Close

Agility closed its Churchill Capital XI SPAC on Nov 4 and begins Nasdaq trading Nov 5 as AGLT. What closed, the ~$465M gross capital, Digit 5 order claims, and what is still unproven.

Agility Robotics is a public company. On November 4, 2026, it closed its business combination with blank-check firm Churchill Capital Corp XI. Nasdaq’s equity corporate-actions desk confirmed the close the same day, and said the combined company’s common stock and warrants would begin trading on November 5 under the ticker symbols AGLT and AGLTW. Agility’s own trading-day release, issued at 7:00 a.m. Eastern on November 5, says trading begins today.

That makes Agility, in the company’s framing, the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company with active commercial deployments. China already has a listed humanoid pure-play: Unitree listed on Shanghai’s STAR Market on August 19, 2026. The U.S. market now has one too. The harder question is what the new filings and press claims actually prove about Digit.

Quick answer
  • Closed: Agility and Churchill Capital Corp XI completed their business combination on November 4, 2026 (Nasdaq Trader ECA2026-791 and Agility’s close release).
  • Trading: AGLT common stock and AGLTW warrants begin trading on Nasdaq November 5 (CUSIPs 008470106 and 008470270). No live share price is quoted in this article.
  • Capital: about $465 million gross from the combination and related financings, before expenses, as Agility restated on November 5 (same figure we tracked after redemptions on post 92047).
  • The catch: Digit 5’s “more than $300 million” in multi-year orders, the “more than 65,000 hours” of Digit operation, and RoboFab’s 10,000-robot design capacity are company claims. Orders are explicitly subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications.
Checked against Agility’s November 4 close release, Nasdaq Trader ECA2026-791 and Agility’s November 5 GlobeNewswire trading release on November 5, 2026.

What closed on November 4

Nasdaq Trader’s Equity Corporate Actions Alert #2026-791, updated as Closed, says the Churchill Capital Corp XI (CCXI/W/U) and Agility Robotics combination closed on November 4, 2026. Effective November 5, Class A ordinary shares CCXI become Agility Robotics, Inc. common stock AGLT (CUSIP 008470106), and warrants CCXIW become AGLTW (CUSIP 008470270, warrant expiry November 13, 2031). Units (CCXIU) were suspended. The combined company is domiciled in Delaware; common stock lists on the Nasdaq Global Market and warrants on the Capital Market.

Agility’s November 4 close release matches that timeline: Churchill’s prior tickers cease; AGLT and AGLTW are expected to begin trading November 5. All existing Agility shareholders roll 100% of their equity into the combined company. Shares held by existing Agility shareholders and by the Churchill sponsor are subject to a 180-day lock-up after closing, with early release based on certain stock-price performance measures. Agility says it will file customary SEC resale registration statements, and that those filings do not lift the lock-up.

The capital figure did not change from the post-redemption update we covered earlier. Agility’s November 5 trading release says the business combination and related financings provide approximately $465 million in gross capital before transaction expenses, including a Foxconn-led PIPE and $100 million of equity funding received before closing. That is the same gross total we walked through after the October 30 redemption math and the November 2 shareholder vote. For the earlier S-4 and trust-account context, see our filings guide.

Digit 5 orders, hours and RoboFab: company claims

The close and trading releases add commercial color that investors will treat as the equity story. Every number below is Agility’s.

  • Customers named: Digit is commercially deployed with GXO, Schaeffler and Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, Agility says. GXO is expanding to two more U.S. facilities with deployments expected to begin in early 2027. AGCO has a commercial agreement to pilot Digit at Hesston, Kansas, beginning in 2027. We have covered the GXO Statesville and Lebanon expansion and the AGCO Hesston pilot separately.
  • Hours: “more than 65,000 hours of real-world operation.” Agility has not published an independent audit of that total.
  • Digit 5 orders: “more than $300 million in committed multi-year orders for Digit 5, subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications.” Agility’s November 5 release repeats that the figure is not current-period revenue. Early customer access is expected in the first half of 2027, with general availability targeted for the end of 2027. For Digit 5’s safety and availability framing, see our Digit 5 specs explainer.
  • RoboFab: Agility’s Salem, Oregon manufacturing facility is described as a 70,000-square-foot plant designed for annual production capacity of up to 10,000 robots. Designed capacity is not the same as robots shipped.
  • Pipeline color (company): Agility also cites three additional enterprise manufacturing customers in paid programs and an active pipeline of more than 30 prospective customers. Those are Agility’s labels; no independent verification is offered in the release.

Where Digit sits on the readiness ladder

Using our demo / pilot / commercial readiness scale, Agility’s current Digit story and its Digit 5 order book are not the same level.

Digit today (company claim): commercial deployments with named logistics and manufacturing customers, plus a multi-year operating-hours total. That is the core of Agility’s “pure-play with active commercial deployments” pitch. What still isn’t in the public record at the same level of detail: audited utilization, intervention rates, revenue by customer, or how many Digits are on customer floors versus in Agility facilities.

Digit 5: a next-generation platform with cooperative-safety framing, multi-year order dollars that are explicitly milestone-gated, early access aimed at the first half of 2027 and general availability aimed at year-end 2027. Until early-access units are working at customer sites, Digit 5 sits closer to committed product roadmap than to proven commercial deployment. Order value that depends on future milestones can shrink if features slip.

How this compares with Unitree’s China listing

Unitree’s August 19, 2026 STAR Market listing (688836) gave investors a quarterly scoreboard almost immediately; its first public-quarter results showed rising revenue and falling profit as R&D spending jumped, which we covered in the Q3 2026 earnings piece. Agility’s U.S. listing arrives with a different disclosure culture: SPAC merger documents, a ~$465 million gross raise after heavy redemptions, a 180-day lock-up, and commercial claims that will be tested in Agility’s first periodic reports as a public company.

Two pure-plays in two markets does not mean the products are peers. Unitree publishes list prices for the R1, G1 and H2 on its store. Agility has not published a Digit or Digit 5 list price. Unitree’s listing is in yuan on a China board under local IPO rules; Agility’s is a SPAC combination onto Nasdaq. The useful comparison for readers is governance and proof: which company turns commercial videos and order press into recurring, audited revenue.

What is still unproven

  • No live tape in this article. Trading begins November 5 under AGLT / AGLTW. We are not quoting an open, high, low or close.
  • Order dollars vs revenue. The “more than $300 million” Digit 5 figure is committed multi-year value subject to milestones, features and specifications. It is not booked revenue.
  • Hours and capacity. The 65,000-hour and 10,000-robot-per-year figures are Agility’s. Designed RoboFab capacity is a plant design target.
  • Lock-up overhang. A 180-day lock-up with price-based early release means a large insider float stays restricted for now, then can unlock. Resale registration does not equal free trading during the lock-up.
  • Digit 5 delivery. Early access in the first half of 2027 is still a plan date.

What to watch next

The next hard signals are Agility’s first Form 10-Q or 10-K as a public company, any 8-K that details final cash after expenses, and whether Digit 5 early-access units show up at named customer sites in the first half of 2027. Until then, treat the Nasdaq listing as confirmed and the Digit 5 order and hours figures as Agility’s claims with clear caveats attached.

Frequently asked questions

When did Agility Robotics start trading as AGLT?

Nasdaq Trader says the Churchill XI and Agility business combination closed November 4, 2026, and that the symbol change to AGLT (common) and AGLTW (warrants) is effective November 5, 2026. Agility’s November 5 release says trading begins that day. This article does not quote a live share price.

How much capital did the Agility SPAC raise?

Agility says the business combination and related financings provide approximately $465 million in gross capital before transaction expenses, including a Foxconn-led PIPE and $100 million of equity funding received before closing. That matches the post-redemption gross figure we covered after the October 30 update.

What does the more than $300 million in Digit 5 orders mean?

It is Agility’s figure for committed multi-year orders for Digit 5, explicitly subject to contractual milestones, product features and specifications. Agility says it does not represent current-period revenue. Early customer access is expected in the first half of 2027.

Is Agility the first public humanoid robotics company?

Agility frames itself as the first U.S. publicly listed pure-play humanoid robotics company with proven, active commercial deployments. Unitree listed earlier on Shanghai’s STAR Market (August 19, 2026). The claims are about different exchanges and different disclosure regimes.

What is the 180-day lock-up?

Agility says shares held by existing Agility shareholders and by the Churchill sponsor are restricted from sale for 180 days after closing, subject to early release based on certain stock-price performance measures. Planned resale registration statements do not remove that lock-up.
