The following fields had no data for any of the selected robots: Arm Reach, Grip Strength, Manipulation Repeatability, Tool Use, Foundation Models, Charging Time, Charging Method, Avg Power Consumption, Force-Limited Arms, Fall Recovery, Fall Detection Response, Emergency Stops, Human Detection Method, Safe Speed Near Humans, Simulation Platforms, Air-Gap Capable, MTBF, Task Success Rate, IP Rating, Noise Level, RaaS / Month, Developer Unit Price, Delivery Lead Time, Warranty, Production Pilots
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
| Metric | Robbyant R1 | T800 |
|---|---|---|
| Investment | $55,000 | $52,900 |
| Payback period | 13.2 mo | 12.7 mo |
| Net savings (5 yr) | $195,000 | $197,100 |
| ROI (5 yr) | +355% | +373% |
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.
