Common Questions

What is the minimum lease term?

Minimum lease term is 1 month. Quarterly leases (3+ months) receive a 10% discount, and annual leases receive a 20% discount off the monthly rate.

What's included in the lease?

All leases include: delivery and return shipping, setup documentation, remote technical support, and software updates. On-site setup and operator training available for enterprise contracts.

How quickly can I get a robot delivered?

Standard delivery is 2–3 business days from our California or Massachusetts facility. Expedited same-day or next-day delivery available for urgent needs (additional fee applies).
