Realbotix launched its flagship Echo humanoid robot platform, enabling customers to purchase the companion-style robot directly on the Realbotix website.
Las Vegas-based humanoid robot and AI system company Realbotix announced the official launch of its new flagship robot platform, Echo.
The company said that the Echo platform is designed for companionship, education and wellness, and built to support meaningful human-robot interaction. Realbotix said Echo’s streamlined, modular architecture makes it easier for customers to configure robots that deliver practical value in caring, supportive environments.
Realbotix said that Echo will come in two different models, Echo Tabletop and Echo Full Body. The company provided the following details:
Realbotix said that every Echo robot features the company’s ultra-realistic design and advanced facial expressions for lifelike, empathetic interaction. Built-in speakers, located in the chest cavity, deliver clear, natural audio for communication and engagement.
The company said that customers can choose from four robotic characters, each with their own personality, voice and interaction style. Realbotix said that the lineup includes the established Aria character, plus three new personas that were developed for education and wellness use cases.
The company added that all Echo models support native integration with leading AI platforms, including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini for varied embodied AI experiences. Realbotix added that each Echo robot can speak over 100 languages and can respond in the language it is spoken to.
“Echo robots represent a major step forward in Realbotix’s mission to improve human lives through social robots,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Realbotix. “By focusing on companionship, education, and wellness, we are creating companions that support, educate, and care for people in meaningful ways.”
Realbotix said that Echo owners can replace faces, heads and bodies at any time to refresh the robot’s appearance, or adapt it for different use cases.
The company said that each Echo robot is paired with an online digital twin. Realbotix said that this dedicated digital identity carries Echo’s personality, voice and encrypted memories across devices, enabling a seamless, familiar experience wherever you interact. From the physical robot to its digital counterpart, Echo preserves continuity while protecting the memories that make each interaction personal.
Realbotix said that subscribers can interact with their chosen character (Aria, Mila, Dave or Amar) on a computer, laptop, tablet or phone while traveling or away from the physical robot. The company said that context and preferences carry over between the digital twin and the embodied robot, keeping the relationship and conversation continuous whether the user is with the robotic hardware or not. Realbotix added that the same character can be deployed as either a tabletop or full-body unit without fragmenting its identity.
The company said that Echo operation requires a monthly AI subscription available in two tiers:
Additionally, Realbotix offers Vinci, its patented AI robotic vision system, as an add-on for the Echo robot lineup. The company said that Vinci enables Echo robots with complete local processing for conversations and visual understanding, with sub-second latency.
Realbotix said that Vinci’s capabilities include:
The company said that these capabilities help Echo recognize users, maintain eye contact and respond to its surroundings. Because processing is handled on-device, Realbotix said that conversations and visual data between the user and robot remain local, supporting a privacy-first experience.
To support the launch, Realbotix redesigned its website to showcase the new Echo Humanoids and streamline ordering at Realbotix.com. Echo robots are available exclusively through Realbotix.
The company said that initial production is limited to 225 Echo Tabletop units and 25 Echo Full Body units for delivery in 2027.
Reservations for 2027 delivery are now open on the new Realbotix website, and customers can reserve a robot with a $199 deposit to secure priority delivery in the first production run.
