The honest brief
Apptronik
Targets industrial deployment now — real Mercedes-Benz and GXO pilots and a DeepMind model partnership, while many humanoid rivals are still demo-stage.
- In real factory and warehouse pilots
- Swappable 4-hour battery packs
- 55 lb payload in human spaces
- Google DeepMind / Gemini Robotics partner
- Not yet at commercial scale
- Enterprise RaaS only — no consumer product
- Unproven outside pilot programs
Cobot
Bets on a practical wheeled design over costly bipedal humanoids, already piloting with Mayo Clinic, Maersk and Moderna.
- Practical wheeled design vs pricey humanoids
- Moves carts up to 1,500 lb
- Real early customers across sectors
- Founder led 500K+ robots at Amazon
- Not a general-purpose humanoid
- Enterprise deployments, not buyable off-the-shelf
- Capital-intensive, early commercial stage
