Overview
Heima (pronounced Hey Ma’)—meaning dark horse in Mandarin (黑马)— is an AI robotics start-up headquartered in Brooklyn, NY with a team of algorithm engineers based in Hangzhou, China. The company specializes in designing and manufacturing state-of-the-art, humanoid robots for residential use. Our primary markets include the United States, Canada, and Europe.
At Heima Inc., we’re committed to a bold, yet straightforward goal: to put a capable, affordable humanoid robot in every home by 2035. Drawing on advanced robotics and embodied intelligence breakthroughs—combined with a globally optimized supply chain—we are primed to revolutionize the home robotics market. Our flagship product, A.D.A.M. (Autonomous Dynamic Artificial Man), delivers a level of household assistance and smart-home integration that goes far beyond today’s single-function robots.
Why We’re Different
Human-Centric Design & Functionality
A.D.A.M. stands at 6’0” (183cm) and navigates the home with ease, handling everyday tasks like cleaning, organizing, and managing your connected devices. It’s more than a tool; it’s a companion designed to enhance daily life.
Edge AI & Efficient Algorithms
Our proprietary on-device processing powers real-time decision-making without heavy reliance on the cloud. This cuts down latency, protects user data, and adapts more naturally to household environments.
Cost-Effective Manufacturing & Global Reach
Critical parts are produced in China for cost efficiency, then shipped to our local facilities for final assembly and rigorous quality checks. This dual approach keeps production costs down allowing us to retail A.D.A.M. well below the price of comparable industrial robotics.
“Dark Horse” Ambition
In Mandarin, “Heima” (黑马) means “dark horse.” We’re set to outpace established industry players by delivering a more complete, human-friendly solution at an attractive price point.
