The deal is expected to provide Agility with approximately $465 million in gross capital, a reduction from the initial $620 million estimate.

Agility is already operating in 9 customer environments, with key partnerships including GXO Logistics and AGCO. The company has announced plans to expand deployments to additional facilities in North Carolina and Tennessee in early 2027, using the Digit 4 model. It also claims over $300 million in committed multi-year orders for the next-generation Digit 5, which is targeted for general availability by the end of 2027.
