The robot rental market has exploded, and by 2026, the scale of China's robot rental market will exceed 10 billion yuan

According to CCTV Finance, in the past March, several robot "employees" of a robot rental company "went on business trips" nearly 20 times a month, and the rental orders for Qingming and May Day holidays were even fully booked early. At the same time, the world's first open robot rental platform has received over 100 million yuan in financing since its establishment at the end of last year, with capital betting on the future of the industry with real money. Research institutions predict that the Chinese robot rental market will experience explosive growth in 2026, with a scale expected to exceed 10 billion yuan, a tenfold increase from approximately 1 billion yuan in 2025. With the steady decline in costs, increasingly mature technology, and continuous emergence of application scenarios, robots will be deeply integrated into various fields of production and life, becoming an important carrier of new quality productivity.
