Our take
Agility Robotics Digit
The most commercially proven humanoid in the catalogue today. Digit has real warehouse deployment evidence and paid customer programmes, but it only makes sense where legs genuinely solve a material-flow problem better than simpler automation.
Agility has stronger deployment evidence than most humanoid rivals, including real logistics workflows and large committed customer programmes.
Digit is expensive enterprise automation, not a general-purpose worker, and newer deployments still depend on carefully defined workflows and safety systems.

What the evidence shows
Digit has a workplace deployment story, but the current programme also includes a new generation in development. Proven work and proposed future capabilities should remain separate.
Production experience applies to the deployed programme
Agility describes Digit working in facilities and Arc coordinating fleets. Its deployment process includes assessment, on-site validation and ongoing operational support. That is the relevant context for judging commercial usefulness.
[1]Do not transfer every claim to Digit 5
The current site explicitly says Digit 5 remains in development and some imagery is illustrative. Experience accumulated by earlier deployments does not prove that every new feature or configuration is already delivered. The useful purchasing evidence is performance on your workflow and the contract for the exact generation.
[1]Available evidence describes the platform; it does not establish everyday household ownership or long-term reliability.
