ROI Comparison

Same operating assumptions across every robot — the only difference is price. Set your numbers once to see which pays back fastest.

Annual labor displaced (per robot): $50,000

MetricReachy 2Robbyant R1
Investment$74,000$55,000
Payback period17.8 mo13.2 mo
Net savings (5 yr)$176,000$195,000
ROI (5 yr)+238%+355%

Estimates labor-cost displacement only — not a full total cost of ownership. Actual ROI depends on integration, maintenance, training, downtime, and task fit. Converted currencies are indicative; USD is the price of record.
