# Amazon Scout: Price, Availability & Status (2026)

Amazon Scout was Amazon's six-wheeled sidewalk delivery robot, field-tested across 4 US markets from 2019 and wound down October 2022. The canonical sidewalk-delivery wind-down. Discontinued.

## Price

_No verified price on record._

There is no consumer price, and the program is discontinued. Scout was a captive Amazon delivery field-test, not a robot sold to consumers, so DEPLOY records zero price points.

## Availability

_Status: discontinued_

The Amazon Scout program is discontinued. After field-testing across four US markets from January 2019, Amazon wound the program down on October 6, 2022, ending the customer-facing field tests.

## Status

Amazon Scout was Amazon's six-wheeled, cooler-sized autonomous sidewalk delivery robot, and the canonical sidewalk-delivery wind-down datapoint in DEPLOY's cohort. Launched in January 2019 (first neighborhood in Snohomish County, Washington), it field-tested across four US markets, adding Irvine in Southern California in 2019 and Atlanta and Franklin, Tennessee in 2020. On October 6, 2022 (first reported by Bloomberg), Amazon wound the program down, ending the customer-facing field tests and disbanding the dedicated field-test team while reassigning employees rather than conducting mass layoffs. It is recorded at commercial maturity to reflect its historical peak of live customer field tests, with a discontinued lifecycle state. It is the canonical sidewalk wind-down alongside FedEx's paused Roxo: a verified-vs-claimed contrast case of a giant's program reaching commercial field-test scale and then being discontinued while survivors such as Starship, Serve, and Coco continued, in the same spirit as the discontinued autonomous-truck legacies Embark and TuSimple.
