Robots with a public hardware order path. Region, configuration, taxes, shipping, support and delivery timing can still vary.

Preorder / early access 1
Reservation or early-access paths. A preorder is not proof of broad customer delivery or production readiness.
Contact sales 9
Robots with an official sales/request path but no simple public checkout flow. Enterprise configuration may require a quote or pilot agreement.

Factory, warehouse and industrial 27
Robots with canonical manufacturing, factory, warehouse, logistics or industrial use cases. Use-case fit does not by itself prove a production deployment.

How Biped.News classifies availability
Availability, advertised hardware price, service price, deposit, subscription, estimate and long-term target are stored separately in the canonical robot data. Biped.News does not convert a pilot, demo, preorder, price target, or paid robot service into proof that hardware is broadly shipping.
What does a humanoid robot cost in 2026?
Manufacturer-verified hardware price signals in Biped.News tracked humanoid, bipedal, and wheeled-home-robot records run from $4,900 to $90,000. Paid robot services are tracked separately and never set the hardware-price range.
Most industrial humanoids still require a pilot agreement or private quote. Future targets are not counted as orderable prices.

Robot services and pay-per-use programs
Paid service visits and robot-as-a-service signals are useful commercial evidence, but they are not robot hardware prices.
Estimates and long-term targets
These signals are deliberately excluded from the verified hardware price range.
Astribot T1: CNY 89,800 launch price reported (about $13,000 at announcement)Astribot announced orders in its T1 launch material, but a public web shop or buyer contract was not available for independent verification. Treat the USD amount as a launch conversion, not a durable US list price.Bumi: China launch reports around RMB 9,998 / ~$1,400; export pricing varies by resellerEstimate or target; not a source-verified order price.GR-1: ~$55,000 reported estimate; manufacturer quote requiredFourier does not publish a checkout price on its official product site.Optimus Gen 2 / Gen 3: ~$20K long-term target (not an orderable price)Tesla has not opened external Optimus sales; this is a long-term target rather than a buyer quote.Sherpa Mecha: $50,000 reported 2025 research-partner price; current public pricing not disclosedATI is seeking research and innovation partners.

How Biped.News verifies robot prices
- 1. Prefer manufacturer product, order, or official shop pages.
- 2. Store hardware price, subscription, deposit, service pricing, availability, source, and date as separate concepts.
- 3. Exclude service visits and robot-as-a-service signals from the hardware-price range.
- 4. Keep estimates and long-term targets outside the verified hardware table.
- 5. Treat tax, shipping, duties, integration, support, and safety validation as additional unless explicitly included.
