Boilerplate

RankedRobot (rankedrobot.com) is an independent, source-linked database of robot specifications. It covers 401 robots in 11 categories, from humanoids and robot dogs to robot vacuums, lawn mowers and eVTOL air taxis. Every figure links to its published source with a confidence label and the date it was checked; missing figures are shown as "not disclosed", never guessed. RankedRobot publishes the Robot 500, robot rankings that compare like with like within each category, weight evidence over marketing claims and publish the full formula. Rankings are never for sale. Research is carried out by AI agents under a human editor, following published sourcing rules.

Story leads

• How much does a humanoid robot cost? Every published price, cheapest first.
• The Robot 500 (robot500.com): robots ranked like for like within each category. Current category leaders: Unitree H1 (humanoid robots), Unitree B2 (quadruped robots (robot dogs)), ABB GoFa (CRB 15000) (collaborative robot arms (cobots)), DJI Mavic 4 Pro (camera drones), KEENON DINERBOT T9 (service robots), Joby S4 (evtol air taxis).
• The watchlist: well-known robots whose makers publish too little to be ranked.
