The Bybotix method

Beyond the demo.

A working prototype or a robot you can buy? Explore the evidence, then the models.

23 robots tracked5 levels

Choose a level to see what it means and which robots match it.

Level 01 / 05

Announced

Public promise, manufacturer page or official communication.

What we look for

  • An identifiable manufacturer and an official announcement.
  • Specifications presented as claims, not test results.

This is an editorial classification, not a certification or a measure of intelligence.

Level 02 / 05

Demonstrated

Prototype, verifiable video, trade show, pilot or controlled demo.

What we look for

  • An identifiable prototype and a documented demonstration.
  • The test conditions and the role of the operator.

A successful demo does not establish autonomous operation in every setting.

Level 03 / 05

On the market

Price, ordering path or identified sales channel.

What we look for

  • A seller, a defined configuration and a way to order.
  • A public price or quote process, including professional sales programmes.

On sale does not automatically mean ready for your use case or deliverable in Europe.

Available in Europe

Purchase, shipping, VAT, customs and lead times clarified for Europe.

What we look for

This is an editorial classification, not a certification or a measure of intelligence.

Level 05 / 05

Local support

Training, parts, diagnosis, warranty and support are realistic.

What we look for

  • A clear contact for diagnosis, warranty and repairs.
  • Access to spare parts, training and ongoing support.

This is an editorial classification, not a certification or a measure of intelligence.

No model documented here yet.

Our current catalogue does not yet have enough evidence to place a robot at this level. That does not mean no such robot exists.

Share information with us

Models follow the current catalogue. See each robot’s profile for sources, dates and configuration details.

How we apply it

Four steps, always dated.

01

Collect

Manufacturer documentation, official pricing, public demos, GitHub repositories, distributor pages and user feedback are gathered before a status is published.

02

Classify

The information is compared against the five-level grid. Commercialized and higher levels require cross-checking beyond a single marketing claim.

03

Publish

Each page states what is known, what remains unclear and which promise Bybotix refuses to make at this stage.

04

Revise

A new supplier signal, EU launch, field issue or support agreement can move a robot up or down the grid.

Editorial discipline

What we do, and what we refuse.

We do

  • Distinguish announced, demonstrated and commercially usable robots.
  • Date sources and say when information is insufficient.
  • Recommend waiting when the maturity level is not aligned with the project.
  • Reserve public reviews for robots actually tested by Bybotix.

We do not

  • Call Bybotix an official distributor before a signed agreement exists.
  • Display fake availability, stock or checkout for high-ticket robots.
  • Treat a viral video as proof of European deployability.
  • Publish ratings or Review schema without a real test protocol.

Sources and cadence

Where the signal comes from.

Primary

Manufacturers

Official pages, technical sheets, public GitHub repositories, press briefings and direct partner exchanges.

Community

Users and developers

Forums, Reddit, Discord communities, independent YouTube tests and operator feedback when identifiable.

Regulatory

EUR-Lex

Machinery, RED, EMC, LVD, RoHS, GPSR, GDPR and AI Act references when they affect a project.
