  • 13 Oct RoboScore rose 1.44 — its evidence changed.

One reading per day since 3 Aug, when the current ordering began. The rank above is the reading for 13 Oct, taken against 32 robots — the standing itself is live, so a robot added since then counts there and not here yet.

News about Zoox, the maker — not about this robot specifically, except rows marked this robot. Collected and classified independently across 12 outlets, so a maker cannot add to it. It never changes this robot's RoboScore — the evidence half of the RoboIndex — and it can move it up a board by at most 15 points. See all Zoox news
