Why Saga Robotics AS has been in the news, across 5 outlets, collected and classified independently, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes a robot's RoboScore (the evidence half of the RoboIndex) and it can move a robot up a board by at most 15 points.
Safety reports
We have found no public register covering this maker’s home market that we can read. A blank record here is an absence of disclosure, not an absence of incidents, and should not be read as a clean history.
