Robot Release Status Explained

Learn the difference between announced, prototype, pilot, enterprise quote, available, preorder, and discontinued robots.

This guide is for people trying to understand robot specifications before comparing products or making buying decisions.

What this page covers

Learn the difference between announced, prototype, pilot, enterprise quote, available, preorder, and discontinued robots. It is written to answer the practical questions a reader has before opening a robot profile or comparison table.

How the data is used

The guide explains the field in plain English, then connects it to robot profiles where the same specification appears in public data.

Important limitations

Specification labels are not always standardized across manufacturers. A payload, runtime, DOF, or price value may use a different test condition, configuration, or disclosure method from one robot to another.

Coverage snapshot

Firgelli Robots currently tracks 101 robot records and 43 manufacturers, with richer pages added as source material improves.

Useful ways to use this page

  • Learn what a specification actually means.
  • Avoid comparing numbers that were measured in different ways.
  • Find robots where the field is documented.
  • Use the guide as context before reading a full robot profile.
