What the record says.
Weave Robotics is a San Francisco startup founded in 2024 by Kaan Dogrusoz, formerly a manager in machine-learning robotics research at Apple, and Evan Wineland, formerly a lead AI product manager on Siri and Apple Intelligence. The company went through Y Combinator's Summer 2024 batch and raised a USD 500,000 pre-seed in October 2024 led by YC. Its YC profile lists a team of 26. No later funding round has been disclosed.
The product is Isaac, a home robot marketed for tidying and laundry: it picks up dirty clothes, folds clean ones, makes beds and tidies toys, but does not run a washing machine. Isaac is not a biped. It rides on a wheeled base, extends to about 5 feet 9 inches when working, uses two orange claw grippers rather than hands, runs about eight hours per charge and is driven through a phone app, with a remote human operator able to take over for hard tasks. Weave calls this Remote Op; how much of a session is autonomous has not been quantified.
Isaac was first promised for fall 2025. In July 2026 the company opened orders at USD 7,999 up front or USD 449 a month, with shipping to California from September 2026 and the rest of the United States in 2027. Order numbers have not been released.

Deposits, lead times and warranties: reading a humanoid order sheet
Of 42 buy records, 2 publish a deposit, 1 a warranty, 1 a shipping cost and none a lead time in weeks. The order sheet for a humanoid is mostly blank, and the blanks are where the money goes.
China builds, America demos: what 108 makers tell you
Chinese makers account for 65 of the 182 humanoids in our record and 31 of the 44 you can order. American makers hold the money, the research and most of the autonomy claims, and sell you almost nothing.
How much does a humanoid robot cost in 2026?
Thirty-five humanoids in our record carry a price, from $299 to $250,000 with a median of $15,000. What the money buys changes completely at each band, and so does how much you should trust the number.
Humanoid robots for your home: what you can actually get in 2026
Six machines in our database are built for the home: three take orders, two have a price, none has reached a customer. Here is what a deposit buys today, and what the $299 alternative does not.

1X is the first company to put a humanoid in front of households with a real price and a real order button. Read the small print and you are buying two things: a machine, and a person somewhere else.
