DEPLOY classifies humanoids by how close they are to a real purchase. MenteeBot is early-stage research: no consumer product, price, or date. For an emerging humanoid, the absence of consumer availability is the honest state, not a gap in our data.
The reason to watch MenteeBot is the Mobileye acquisition: an AV-perception company applying its self-driving stack to humanoids. That is a thesis worth tracking, not a product you can buy.
