Agility Robotics to go public via $2.5 billion SPAC merger with Churchill Capital

Going public through a SPAC instead of chasing another private megaround signals that Agility thinks it can win on booked revenue rather than hype. With over 300 million dollars in multi year contracts already from names like Amazon and GXO, this is a bet that steady robots as a service income can survive public market scrutiny in a way flashier valuations cannot. If it works, expect other humanoid makers to treat public listings as a legitimate funding path rather than a last resort.
