Market size
Grand View Research estimates the global autonomous mobile robots market at $4.7 billion in 2025 and $5.5 billion in 2026. The estimate includes AMR hardware, software and services across industrial and commercial applications.[50]
Forecast & CAGR
The market is forecast to reach $14.0 billion by 2033 from an estimated $5.5 billion in 2026, representing a 14.4% compound annual growth rate from 2026 to 2033.[50]
Market share & regions
Asia-Pacific accounted for 30% of global AMR revenue in 2025, while China was the leading individual country market. The International Federation of Robotics recorded 117,500 transportation and logistics service robots sold globally in 2025, equal to 47% of professional service robot shipments.[50][2]
Segmentation
Hardware generated 67.7% of AMR revenue in 2025. Goods-to-person picking robots accounted for 48.3% by type, manufacturing represented 76.6% by end use, and laser guidance held more than 35% by navigation technology.[50]
Key players & concentration
The supplier base includes established automation companies and specialist AMR vendors such as ABB, OMRON, Teradyne, Geekplus, Locus Robotics, Clearpath Robotics and Boston Dynamics. Publicly available market-share data for the leading AMR suppliers was not identified, so concentration cannot be quantified reliably.[51]
Pricing
Typical light-duty AMR purchases range from $20,000 to more than $80,000 per robot, while customized systems can cost $40,000 to more than $150,000 before wider deployment expenses. Total project cost also includes fleet software, payload modules, charging, mapping, integration, training and support.[52]
Trends, drivers & challenges
Demand is being driven by warehouse and e-commerce automation, labor shortages, rising labor costs and the need for flexible material handling. The market is also shifting toward software-enabled fleets and natural navigation, while safety, integration complexity and the capital cost of deployment remain challenges.[50][29]
Consumer behavior & competition
AMRs are primarily purchased by businesses rather than consumers, with manufacturing, logistics and warehouse operators forming the largest demand base; manufacturing accounted for 76.6% of AMR end-use revenue in 2025. Competition is increasingly based on navigation, fleet-management software, payload capability and service models rather than hardware alone.[50]
M&A
M&A activity is extending beyond robot hardware into autonomy and safety software. In May 2026, FORT Robotics announced its acquisition of Mapless AI; FORT said its platform had been deployed on more than 19,000 units for over 600 customers at the time of the announcement.[53]
Regulation
ISO 3691-4:2023 sets safety requirements and verification provisions for driverless industrial trucks and their systems, explicitly including autonomous mobile robots. The standard covers areas such as automated guided vehicles, autonomous mobile robots and automated guided carts.[54]
Latest news
The International Federation of Robotics reported in September 2026 that global professional service robot shipments rose 24% in 2025 to almost 250,000 units. Transportation and logistics remained the largest application, with 117,500 units sold, up 21% year over year and representing 47% of professional service robot shipments.[2]
