Zeroth Robotics has made its public debut in the United States, emerging from stealth with a broad portfolio of interactive, AI-powered robots aimed at consumers, developers, and commercial customers. The launch marks the company’s formal entry into a fast-evolving robotics market, where interest in home assistance, service automation, and human–machine interaction continues to accelerate.
Leading Zeroth’s U.S. rollout is the M1, a compact humanoid robot designed for home environments. Measuring roughly 15 inches in height, the M1 is positioned as a functional domestic assistant rather than a novelty device. The company says the robot is intended to support independent living for older adults through reminders, daily task assistance, and basic safety awareness. It is also targeted at families, where it can help manage routines, reminders, and interactive activities, as well as at creators and robotics enthusiasts interested in building and customizing a personal robot.
The M1 is equipped with multimodal perception, an integrated safety framework, and an app-based ecosystem that allows its skills and behaviors to be expanded over time. Zeroth said the robot will ship with built-in capabilities at launch, with additional features delivered through software updates. Pre-orders for the M1 are expected to open in the first quarter of 2026, with prices starting at $2,899. General availability is planned for April 2026.
Beyond the M1, Zeroth unveiled four additional robots spanning different use cases. The W1 is an autonomous, wheel-based assistant designed for home and light commercial settings. WALL•E, an expressive and programmable companion robot created by Disney and Pixar, is aimed at families, classrooms, and high-engagement environments such as retail spaces and theme parks. The A1 is a quadruped robot built for developers, universities, and research teams exploring mobility, AI, and field robotics. The lineup is completed by Jupiter, a full-size humanoid designed for real-world task execution, combining autonomous movement with remote operation.
Zeroth said its entire portfolio is built on a unified “Technology DNA,” a common platform that includes advanced motion control, evolving interaction models, and proprietary actuator engineering. The company said this shared foundation enables more natural movement, more personalized interaction, and scalable performance across consumer and commercial robots.
Zeroth plans to demonstrate its robots at CES 2026 in Las Vegas, where attendees will be able to interact with the M1 and W1 and preview the capabilities of the other models. The company expects its full five-robot lineup to begin rolling out across the U.S. market in 2026, starting with the M1, as it seeks to establish a long-term presence in both consumer and enterprise robotics.
