Overview, buying status, and research notes

What it isSophia is a humanoid from Hanson Robotics. Hanson Robotics social humanoid robot Our review focuses on what is published today: size, payload, runtime, mobility, software access, safety claims, and whether buyers can actually purchase or deploy it.
Availability and pricingSophia is currently listed as paid deployment. Pricing is No public MSRP found. That buying status matters because a preorder, pilot, enterprise quote, prototype, or discontinued model means very different things for buyers.
Best fitBased on its published specs and positioning, Sophia is most relevant for interaction, events, research. It should be evaluated as a practical robot for the intended job, not only as a brand name or demo video.
What to watchPublic specifications can change as the manufacturer releases new details. Verify release timing, purchase availability, safety claims, autonomy level, SDK or ROS access, payload, runtime, battery details, sensors, hand design, actuator details, walking speed, and stable manufacturer measurements.
Comparable robotsA useful comparison set for Sophia includes Tesla Optimus, Figure 02, Unitree G1, Apollo, Digit, NEO, Phoenix, Walker S, GR-2, Unitree H2. Compare price, availability, height, weight, payload, runtime, DOF, walking speed, hands, software access, service model, and deployment evidence.
Specs that matterSophia has 17 documented specification fields available for review. Specification highlights include Price: No public MSRP found; Availability: paid deployment; Runtime: Not publicly disclosed / not applicable for typical tethered or demonstration.... The important question is whether the published capabilities match the actual work: lifting, walking, sensing, manipulating objects, operating safely, and being supported after deployment.

What is Sophia?

Hanson Robotics social humanoid robot

Who makes it?

Hanson Robotics is the manufacturer currently connected to this profile. Use the linked manufacturer page and source cards below to verify company-level details, model lineage, and official product information.

What is it designed for?

Sophia is most relevant for interaction, events, research. Treat use-case claims carefully when the robot is still marked as prototype, piloting, announced, or unavailable to the public.

Availability and price

Availability: paid deployment. Price: No public MSRP found. Robot pricing often depends on configuration, support contract, accessories, and whether the customer is buying, leasing, or joining a pilot.

Hardware and design

Public hardware details are still incomplete for Sophia; known dimensions and manipulation fields are listed in the specification table.

Mobility

Walking: true; Wheels: false; Tracks: false

Hands, manipulation and payload

End-effector and hand details are not fully documented yet. Use payload, hand DOF, finger count, and grip fields when comparing manipulation ability.

Battery and charging

Runtime Walking: Not publicly disclosed / not applicable for typical tethered or demonstration configuration; Runtime Working: Not publicly disclosed / not applicable for typical tethered or demonstration configuration

AI, software and developer support

SDK: No public third-party SDK disclosed; ROS: No public ROS support disclosed

Strengths

  • 1 linked source records support verification.
  • 26 approved image assets help compare visible design and proportions.

Limitations and uncertainties

  • Robot specifications can change quickly as manufacturers revise hardware, software, and deployment programs.

Best use cases

  • interaction
  • events
  • research

Not ideal for

  • Buyers who need guaranteed availability without confirming directly with the manufacturer.
  • Procurement decisions that require independently verified pricing, warranty, and deployment support.
  • Applications where missing safety, runtime, payload, or autonomy data cannot be tolerated.
