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

Runs preset routines, needs rescue
I
Manual
One action, on command
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.

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.
Maytronics Dolphin Nautilus EON 100
Cordless operation removes the cable and the deck-side power supply, but it puts a battery in the ownership picture: charging happens out of the water, and the pack is a part that ages on a machine a mains-fed cleaner would run indefinitely.
SmartMap navigation runs the pool without an operator, but the unit is still placed in the water and lifted out by hand around each session, and it comes out of the pool before anyone gets in.
Wybot C2 Vision
AI camera guidance loses precision in murky water; algae-heavy conditions force manual mode switching to maintain full-pool coverage.
180-minute runtime per charge caps true large-pool coverage to split sessions, adding operational overhead compared to continuous tethered cleaners.
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.
Maytronics Dolphin Nautilus EON 100
- Pools longer than 50 feet
- Maytronics states coverage for pools up to 50 feet. Longer basins fall outside that envelope, and whole-pool completion above that length is not documented.
- Cable-dependent operational preferences
- Cordless operation introduces battery scheduling and charge cycles. Owners expecting always-on readiness like corded models have should evaluate runtime and recovery time.
- Above-ground or specialty pool shapes
- Shallow-ledge design assumes in-ground gunite topology. Above-ground side-wall constraints and irregular small-pool geometry remain unverified.
Wybot C2 Vision
- Pools that are routinely cloudy or algae-heavy
- Navigation is camera-based, so heavily clouded water degrades pathfinding. Suction grip also loses traction on moss or algae-covered walls, which is where a wall-climbing cycle is most likely to need repositioning.
- Owners unable to accommodate mid-cycle recharges
- 180-minute Eco-mode runtime covers standard pools once; pools exceeding 2,150 sq ft require split sessions with 3-hour recharge between runs.
- Owners unable to perform weekly filter maintenance
- Dual-layer filter requires weekly rinse and annual cartridge replacement to sustain suction efficiency. Cleaning runs can be scheduled in the app, but the filter still needs hands on it every week.
What stays your job
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.
Maytronics Dolphin Nautilus EON 100
- Weekly: Filter cartridge inspection and rinse; light debris removal from intake grill.
- Monthly: Brush bristle check for wear; water quality test if algae or buildup visible.
- Seasonally: Cordless dock cleaning; battery conditioning check; brush pad replacement (~$30-50 estimated).
- Annually: Cable-swivel inspection not applicable; battery health assessment and firmware update if available.
- As needed: Waterline sediment clearing; pool surface skimming before deployment if heavy pollen present.
Wybot C2 Vision
- Weekly: Rinse dual-layer filter cartridge (180 + 10 micron) with garden hose; air dry before reinstall.
- Monthly: Empty debris bin; inspect impeller blades for hair wrap and bristle condition.
- Annually: Replace dual-layer filter cartridge (approximately $60-80 from pool supply retailers); inspect rubber seals and brushes for wear.
- Seasonally: Winterize battery (store indoors, cool location; charge quarterly during off-season). Drain unit if stored outside winter months.
- As needed: Clean camera lens weekly to maintain visual pathfinding accuracy in algae-prone pools.
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.
