How Much Does a Humanoid Robot Cost?

Published humanoid prices span three orders of magnitude, from $1,688 for a compact platform to $200,000 for an industrial one. The machines doing the most commercial work are mostly sold by quote or subscription, not off a price list.

The short answer

Most humanoids cannot be bought by the public. The ones that can are mainly research and developer platforms. All prices below are starting list prices, excluding shipping, duties, taxes and configuration upgrades. For every platform with a purchase path, see Where to Buy.

The cheapest humanoids

The Nori A3, a wheeled bimanual robot at $1,688, is the cheapest platform with an open order path. Noetix's Bumi launched at ¥9,998 (about $1,400) in 2025, but that batch sold out and current versions are quote-only. Unitree's R1 starts near $4,900.

The research workhorse: Unitree G1

At $13,500, confirmed on Unitree's store on 3 October 2026, the G1 is the most widely adopted affordable humanoid. EDU configurations run to $73,900. The full-size H1 is $90,000.

The only price filed with a regulator: Digit

Agility Robotics' SEC Form S-4 sets Digit's price: $8,500 a month plus a $25,000 deployment fee as a service, or $200,000 to buy. Over three years the subscription comes to about $331,000 before support extras, which shows why scale buyers weigh outright purchase.

Enterprise machines: by quote

Figure 03, Apptronik's Apollo, Boston Dynamics' Atlas and UBTech's Walker S2 are sold only through direct negotiation. None of their makers has published a price. Tesla's Optimus is not for sale at all. The $20,000–30,000 figure often quoted for it is an estimate, not a list price.

Buy or subscribe?

Some platforms sell outright; others are offered as Robotics-as-a-Service. A subscription lowers upfront cost and bundles support and updates. Outright purchase can be cheaper over the long run at scale. Match the model to your capital and risk profile. Our procurement guide covers the trade-offs.

Costs beyond the sticker

Shipping, import duties, taxes, spare parts and configuration upgrades are extra, and on the larger platforms they can be substantial. Ask every vendor one question in writing: "What's the total cost over 3 years, all-in?"

Androids.com does not sell robots, and the prices here are the makers' published figures.
