Reality check

The useful boundary is what works repeatedly in a real environment—not what looks impressive in a demo.

Works well when
  • Predictable delivery, cleaning or guidance routes
  • Sites with elevators, doors and handoff rules defined
  • Repetitive work where staff can handle exceptions
Verify before buying
  • Navigation around guests, children and temporary obstacles
  • Charging, cleaning, refilling and daily ownership
  • Actual handoff behavior when the route is blocked
Not a magic solution
  • A substitute for hospitality and human judgment
  • A guarantee of lower labor cost without workflow changes
  • A safe choice for an untested public environment
