Current evidence comparison for Figure 02 and Figure 03.

Figure 02

Figure AI

Figure 02 is a superseded second-generation Figure humanoid with strong customer-confirmed BMW production evidence, including operating hours and output metrics.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

Figure 03

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
