In March 2026 the CEO said an android can be built for under $20,000, which is a cost claim, not a price. Year from the February 2025 Protoclone video.

Overview

A human-shaped android with a polymer copy of all 206 human bones, moved by more than 1,000 water-driven "Myofiber" artificial muscles instead of motors, plus a 500 W pump acting as its heart. Clone Robotics, founded in Wrocław, Poland, with an office in California, released the viral video of the faceless Protoclone V1 on February 20, 2025. The planned home version, Clone Alpha, is listed for a 279-unit limited run with chores such as making sandwiches and folding laundry. The catch is that no footage shows it standing or walking on its own, and pre-orders announced for 2025 never opened.
