American humanoid robots

Figure 03 is Figure AI's current third-generation biped humanoid (5'8", 61 kg, 20 kg payload, 5 h listed runtime, 1.2 m/s) with tactile fingertips, palm cameras and wireless foot charging. Its strongest evidence is a public package-sorting livestream that Figure reports ran 200 hours with 249,560 packages and near-human per-package speed, plus a BMW-confirmed logistics sequencing use case at Spartanburg. Household and dexterity demos (dishwasher, pills, syringe, 56% zero-shot success in 30 homes) are company-published. Autonomy is asserted but not independently audited, BMW has published no Figure 03 output metrics, and the robot is not for sale

Caveat: No price, pre-order, lease or retail channel was found in primary sources

Figure 02 is a superseded second-generation Figure humanoid with strong customer-confirmed BMW production evidence, including operating hours and output metrics. Its broader manipulation/autonomy claims should be interpreted conservatively because they mostly come from company demos

Caveat: No public Figure 02 price or purchase path was found; Figure describes the model as retired after Figure 03

Electric Atlas now has strong company-source evidence for industrial specs, production-version launch, committed 2026 deployments, and Hyundai customer-facility field testing, but public autonomy evidence remains weak because no independent benchmarks or operating metrics were found and AP reported the CES 2026 stage demo was remotely piloted

Caveat: Official sources claim autonomous modes and learning-based behavior generation, but no independent autonomy benchmark, interven...

Customer-confirmed GXO deployment moving totes in logistics operations

Caveat: No independent benchmark was found in this pass

Figure 01 is a superseded first-generation Figure prototype with useful early demos for walking, coffee-machine interaction, and speech-grounded action, but no customer-confirmed deployment. Do not credit it with BMW production metrics, which belong to Figure 02

Caveat: No customer-confirmed Figure 01 deployment with task, hours, or output was found

Tesla Optimus Gen 2/v2.5 has company demo evidence for locomotion and basic manipulation, but public autonomy and deployment claims are heavily caveated by disclosed non-autonomous or human-assisted demos, official construction/pre-volume-production status, and 2026 call/reporting that frames factory work as basic/R&D rather than productive deployment

Caveat: No independent benchmark was found in this pass

Dexmate Vega 1 Pro is a wheeled humanoid research/developer platform from Dexmate in Santa Clara. It has two 7-DoF arms rated at 5 kg each, a 3-DoF torso reaching to 2.2 m, a 3-DoF head, a 4-DoF omni-directional base (24 total DoF), a stereo RGB head camera, front/rear LiDAR, four base RGB cameras, and NVIDIA Jetson AGX Thor. Dexmate claims 20 hours of runtime and lists the robot as in production and sold to researchers/developers. A media report prices it at $89,999 with a $999 deposit and cites a lead time of about three months. Vega does not include AI; task behavior is built or taught by the customer using Python/C++/Rust APIs and teleoperation tools. No autonomous task execution or observable demo content was found beyond YouTube video titles. Several research labs are named as having used Vega, but no commercial deployment metrics exist

Caveat: Vega 1 Pro does not include AI; it ships as a hardware platform with APIs and teleoperation tools. No autonomous task execution...

Customer/partner pilots but no independent throughput or uptime metrics

Caveat: No independent benchmark was found in this pass

Foundation Phantom MK-1 is a US-built biped humanoid (5'9", 176 lb, 44 lb payload, 1.7 m/s, camera-first no LiDAR) reported to have 19 upper-body DOF and a reported lease price around $100,000/year. Its strongest evidence is a media-reported deployment of two units to Ukraine in February 2026 for logistics and reconnaissance testing, plus $24M in Pentagon research contracts. Industrial claims include factory/dockyard testing and a Foundation claim via Reuters of helping build over 24,000 cars in 2025. However, all evidence is media-mediated company claims; no official government/customer release, no independent benchmark, and no video transcript were reviewed. Major spec conflicts exist on battery/runtime, fall recovery, and arm/hand function, and the robot is not publicly purchasable

Caveat: No official product page, public list price, or purchase path was found. Reported price of $150,000 unit or $100,000/year lease...

Persona AI Humanoid is a first-generation industrial humanoid prototype from Persona AI (Houston) targeting shipyard welding, fabrication, construction, and energy. It has no published height, weight, payload, runtime, or speed. Evidence includes official claims of modular design and NASA-derived robotic hand technology, an agreement with HD Hyundai for shipyard robots with delivery expected within 18 months, an ABS MOU, and a Louisiana/SSE Steel pilot. The only direct demo evidence is an official video title 'Hand on the Torch: Gen 1 Welds in a Real Industrial Environment'; teleoperation status is not disclosed, and a directory headline reports a teleoperated welding demo. Autonomy is not demonstrated; the company states teleoperation precedes autonomy. No price or RaaS terms are available

Caveat: No height, weight, payload, runtime, battery, walking speed, total DoF, hand DoF, or compute specifications have been published...

Tesla Optimus Gen 1 is an early prototype with limited stage mobility evidence and presentation-reported specs, not a deployed or current robot

Caveat: No independent Gen 1 autonomy benchmark, intervention rate, or raw continuous task run was found in this pass

K-Scale K-Bot was an open-source humanoid robot from K-Scale Labs (Palo Alto) with reported specs of 1.4 m height, 34 kg weight, 10 kg payload, 4-hour battery life, modular compute, swappable end effectors, and a starting price of $10,999. It targeted developers with an open-source RL library and sim2real pipeline. The company shipped a small number of Founder's Edition units and demonstrated low-latency teleoperation, but canceled all pre-orders and refunded deposits in November 2025 after failing to raise funding, then open-sourced hardware (CERN-OHL-S-2.0) and software (MIT). No autonomous operation, DoF, walking speed, or independent benchmarks were found

Caveat: Pre-orders canceled and refunded; no active purchase path. The shop URL may be inactive
