| Humanoid | Price | What the number is |
|---|---|---|
| RX1 | $1,238 | Parts list total with optional parts and a depth camera. BOM |
| HopeJR | about $3,000 | Hugging Face's estimate per unit, May 2025. No store listing found. source |
| Berkeley Humanoid Lite | $4,312 | Parts total, US prices, from the paper (April 2025). Paper |
| Asimov 1 | $20,000 | DIY kit, unassembled, per the maker's README. source |
Only Asimov sells a kit we can price from a seller page. The others are plans and parts lists you source yourself, plus a printer and tools.

Is there a humanoid under $1,000?
Press coverage said "under $1,000" for RX1, but the maker's parts sheet totals $1,238.43 with every optional part, so it only holds if you skip the options.
Can I buy any of them assembled?
Not from the sellers we check today.
