MenteeBot V3 has stronger source-backed evidence than the previous weak pack: official specs list a 175 cm, 70 kg, 40-DoF biped with 25 kg carry capacity and 1.5 m/s speed, and Mentee/CTech report a two-robot autonomous warehouse demo moving 32 boxes in an 18-minute unedited run. Still score conservatively: there is no named customer deployment, independent benchmark, intervention-rate data, price, or public purchase path, and Mobileye's SEC filing explicitly cautions that humanoid commercialization remains uncertain
