Product overview
About Zeroth M1
Zeroth M1 is a small home humanoid from Zeroth Robotics. Zeroth launched it at CES 2026, and Yanko Design presented it as an AI companion for the home. Zeroth's build page describes a platform for building real-world AI robot applications, combining precision motion, voice and visual recognition.
Zeroth lists two mobility modes for the M1. A bipedal mode moves at 0.05 m/s with about 1.58 inches of obstacle clearance, and a wheeled mobility base moves at 0.6 m/s with about 0.79 inches of clearance. The sensor list includes a LiDAR for whole-home mapping, an iToF depth sensor, a vision camera, an IMU and a three-microphone array. The company says its modular AI architecture is built on OpenClaw, and it describes the platform as open for programming. The official build page lists a body height of 19.5 in (about 49.5 cm) and a robot body weight of 6.17 lb, with the mobility base listed separately.
Zeroth's store lists the M1 at a $2,499 sale price and now says pre-orders are open with shipping planned for Q4 2026. Yanko Design reported a $2,999 MSRP and a $2,399 pre-order price at the CES launch. We found no delivery reports or independent reviews, so the M1 is listed as preorder rather than commercial.
