Humanoid robotics maker Sunday reaches $1.15B valuation to build household robots

Robotics company Sunday has raised a new funding round that has valued the company at unicorn status, meaning over $1 billion, it announced on Thursday.

Sunday says it has raised $165 million at a $1.15 billion valuation in a Series B round led by Coatue Management. Other investors in the round include Tiger Global, Benchmark, and Bain Capital Ventures.

The company emerged from stealth late last year and already has 1,000 people on its waitlist, Bloomberg reports.

Sunday, founded by Tony Zhao and Cheng Chi, is on a quest to build a household humanoid robot called Memo that helps with tasks like laundry and clearing the table. San Francisco, CA | October 13-15, 2026
