All humanoid robots. Every measure below is plotted against the full class, so a difference can be read against how much the class itself varies.

01 Classification
What each one does on its own.
The Autonomy Ladder is the same five rungs for every robot on the site. A rung describes the conditions a robot handles without you, not how good it is.
V
Generalized
Any task, any setting
IV
Environmental
Handles new obstacles without help
III
Conditional
Finishes familiar jobs on its own
II
Assisted
Runs preset routines, needs rescue

02 Assessment
Where they actually differ.
The Robovations Score is nine inputs across three pillars, each weighted as shown and each scored so that more is better. A robot can lead on one and trail on another, which is the point of showing them apart. Cost of ownership and data handling are reported on each robot's own page and are never averaged into the score.
None of these robots carries a scored assessment yet, so there is nothing to plot here. The classification and evidence below still apply.
03 Measured against the class
How far apart is a long way?
A number only means something next to the spread it sits in. Each track below is the real range across every classified robot in the class, with the median marked.

04 Ownership
What the numbers leave out.
The trade-off
What each design gives up to be good at what it is good at.
Figure 02
Helix runs end to end on onboard compute with no teleoperator in the loop, but the demonstrated envelope is material handling inside cells Figure set up and staffed, and nothing outside it was shown.
PNDbotics Adam
A genuinely detailed, independently corroborated actuator and compute specification set signals real engineering depth, but the platform’s most widely covered public demonstration is confirmed scripted and human-monitored, not an autonomy showcase.
The archery demonstration’s training pipeline, reinforcement learning plus motion-capture imitation, is a more autonomy-consistent account than the keytar performance’s, but no source confirms whether a live operator was involved in the specific performance shown publicly.
Who each one is wrong for
Stated by the record itself. A robot being wrong for a household is a fact about fit, not a fault.
Figure 02
- Consumer or small-business deployment scenarios
- Figure AI has not announced consumer availability or pricing. Figure 02 is not available for purchase; access is limited to OEM partnerships and pilot programs.
- Autonomous outdoor or unstructured environments
- Platform is designed for indoor, climate-controlled factory settings with human supervisors present. Outdoor weather and unstructured layouts are outside the design envelope.
- Any task outside factory material handling
- Deployments covered part loading at BMW Spartanburg and package sorting in Figure's logistics cell. Helix adapted its grasp within those tasks, including to deformable poly bags and flat envelopes it was not explicitly programmed for, but no other task domain was demonstrated.
PNDbotics Adam
- Any consumer or household use
- Enterprise inquiry-only; not available for consumer purchase in any source reviewed.
- Buyers seeking confirmed autonomous performance
- The most widely covered public demonstration is confirmed pre-programmed and human-monitored, not autonomous.
- Buyers who need a single confirmed price for 'Adam'
- Only adjacent-tier prices were found (Adam SP prototype, Adam Lite retail); PNDbotics' multi-tier family naming makes it unclear whether either applies to plain Adam.
What stays your job
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.

- As needed: Maintenance is handled by Figure under pilot agreements; there are no owner-serviceable parts and no published consumable schedule.

05 Evidence
How much each of these is standing on.
Classifications rest on different depths of evidence. A pre-release assessment and a verified one are not the same kind of claim.
