Lower-cost mobile manipulators are being pushed into more people’s hands.

Today, San Francisco-based @bracketbot said it is building 100 Gen 2.5 robots for offices, retail, research labs, startups and homes.
Pricing will be under $3,000 with option to buy planned by end of summer. Current efforts position around scaling data collection on embodiment and training models.
At the same time, @NoriRobotics has opened orders for Nori L2, targeting an initial batch of 100. The company says the robot is made in SF, with pricing starting at $1,288 and the larger version listed at $1,388.
Nori is also building a marketplace where trained tasks can be shared across robots, effectively turning lower-cost deployed hardware into a route for learning data and reusable skills.
