Editorial summaries

Avride delivery robot

Avride's autonomous sidewalk delivery robot, evolved from the Yandex rover platform (Avride is the autonomous-mobility business spun out of Yandex), operates in active service across multiple US cities through partnerships with Uber Eats and others. There is no consumer price: it is a B2B delivery service, not a robot sold to consumers.

On the autonomy spectrum it sits at the more-autonomous end of the sidewalk cohort: autonomous with remote oversight, rather than primarily teleoperated. It is at commercial maturity.

Kiwibot 4.0

Kiwibot's fourth-generation sidewalk delivery robot is a semi-autonomous bot with teleoperator oversight and an insulated cargo compartment sized for campus food delivery. There is no consumer price: it is a B2B delivery service, not a robot sold to consumers. On the autonomy spectrum it sits between fully teleoperated and fully autonomous: semi-autonomous with human teleoperator oversight. From Kiwibot, it is at commercial maturity.
