Why it matters

First humanoid robot offered to consumers for home pre-order at a published price.

Real-world use

Hayward, California factory began output in April 2026 (10,000 a year capacity); independent confirmation of customer home deliveries was lacking as of mid-2026. Remote teleoperators assist for now.
