- Rank
- Where you stand. RoboIndex is Robo Score + Momentum — the 0–100 evidence figure plus up to 15 points for a maker in the news. Both parts are printed on every row, so you can check the sum.
- Momentum
- What's happening now. Up to 15 points, from news events that decay over 90 days. It can lift a rank, never sink one — a quiet maker keeps its Robo Score in full.
- Movers
- A lens, not a page. The same list re-sorted by momentum change — see this week's.
The rest of the standing
4–25 of 67
The week column only moves when a robot's own score moved. Rank position drifts whenever a neighbour moves, so publishing that as an arrow would be inventing movement. A robot that did not change reads hold.
Robots first sold before 2020 are held out of the standing. Robots with no recorded launch year stay in — an unknown year is not evidence of age, and treating missing data as old would quietly delete most of the catalogue.
Momentum belongs to the maker, not the robot. Every robot a maker sells moves together. Where we have no news signal at all the row says so in words rather than showing a zero — a zero would claim the company is quiet, when all we actually know is that we have not heard anything.
Makers are ranked on a separate board. A robot is never ranked against a company, so Top Exoskeleton Companies is its own standing, built from each maker's robots in this category alone.
How this ranking is built — the factors behind the score, the year gate, how ties are ordered, and why Momentum is capped and bonus-only rather than averaged into the score.
