Possibly ≤ 1 weekShipping: Unconfirmed. US company, ships assembled, and Batch 2 is listed as purchasable, but no current lead time is published (the store copy is stale). Ask on Innate's Discord before ordering. Innate store ↗
Remote control: Code runs on the robot: open it from Cursor or VS Code on a laptop over Remote-SSH, write Python skills and agents that hot-reload on save, and view cameras and lidar in Foxglove in a browser. A simulator runs on macOS.
Overview
The best out-of-box fit for "a house-roaming robot I program in Python with an LLM brain", since mapping, obstacle avoidance, depth, voice and an arm are already integrated, for under $1k and assembled. The trade-offs are that the brain is on-board and partly Innate-cloud-mediated rather than on a laptop, the small wheels haven't been tested on thick carpet, and it's a young startup. The store copy still says "shipping starting April 2025", so confirm the lead time first.
Top pick for skipping hardware work, with lidar, depth, arm and an LLM agent framework, assembled, for $995.
