Questions

What does $499 include?

One event booking for the Unitree R1. Shipping to and from your venue is quoted separately based on location.

Where do you ship?

Anywhere in the United States. Tell us your venue city and we'll include shipping in your quote.

How far ahead should I book?

As early as you can, since there's one robot per date. Two weeks out leaves time for shipping. Ask us about rush dates.

Can it go outdoors?

Yes, on flat, dry ground. Let us know about the surface and weather so we can plan.

Is it the same robot from the Huston-Tillotson gala?

Yes. It's the same Unitree R1 that worked the gala in Austin on October 24, 2026.
