Humanoid robots are officially going direct-to-consumer. Realbotix has opened preorders for Echo, a human-like robot designed for companionship, education, wellness, and everyday interaction, with prices starting at $11,950 for the tabletop model and $59,950 for the full-body version.

Powered by conversational AI, Echo can connect to ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, communicate in over 100 languages, and offer optional facial recognition, eye tracking, and emotional cue detection.

A $199 deposit secures a reservation, with just 250 robots planned for the first production run. Deliveries are expected to begin in the second half of 2027, with AI subscriptions starting at $199.99 per month.

The future of humanoid robotics is moving from research labs into people's homes.
