RUN 2-MINUTE HOME FIT DIAGNOSTIC →

[BUY THIS ROBOT IF...]

&check;You want accessible ownership economics at $30,000 CapEx or $1,350/mo RaaS with a 10-week lead time.
&check;You require heavy domestic or commercial lifting (30 kg max payload and 25 kg stair carry with 200 Nm peak torque).
&check;You value expanding OTA capabilities: automates 39% of standard household chores today, scaling to 63% in Year 1 and 81% by Year 2.

[DO NOT BUY THIS ROBOT IF... (DISQUALIFIERS)]

×Do NOT deploy unsupervised in a residential living room with young children or pets: its 85 kg polymer frame (52 dBA) is not ISO 13482 child-safety certified. Consider 1X NEO Beta (38 dBA, soft textile) or Fourier GR-2 (40 dBA) instead.
×Do NOT assign fragile crystal stemware or fine china dishwashing (3/5 rating); its end-effectors lack sub-2N stemware slip protection.
×Do NOT operate outdoors in heavy rain, mud, or wet grass: its IP52 dust and splash proof enclosure is not all-weather sealed. Consider Booster T1 (IP65) or All-Electric Atlas (IP67) for year-round wet outdoor yard work.
×Do NOT schedule continuous 24/7 back-to-back commercial shifts without charging breaks: its 2.40 kWh internal battery (4 hrs runtime) is not hot-swappable and requires a 60-minute docked recharge.

How does the $30,000 Kepler Forerunner K2 compare to Figure 02 for warehouse and tradie lifting?

Julian ZhaoEarly Beta Tester(Kepler K2 Pilot Evaluation)

▲ 159 Helpful

At $30,000 outright ($1,350/mo RaaS), Kepler K2 delivers 52 total degrees of freedom, 24-DOF tactile hands, and planetary roller screw linear actuators capable of lifting 30 kg totes (25 kg up stairs) for roughly half the upfront capital cost of Figure 02. It is a standout value pick for hardware stores, removalists, and small warehouses.
