Sources & method
Where the numbers come from
Every robot links to public sources: maker pages, papers, regulators and reputable press. Specs are what makers publish, not independent tests.
Photos and logos only identify each robot and its maker. Simbeing is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsing any company, and nothing here is advertising. Figures are for statistics only and are not advice of any kind. Terms of use
How the job ratings work
- Detailed profiles are researched job by job: the main tasks from official occupation data, each rated with a source (a robot or AI tool doing it at a real workplace, a trial, or a credible study), the robots already doing parts of the job, and an outlook from official labour statistics.
- Every other job gets an automatic estimate. Each task in the O*NET database links to standard work activities; Simbeing rated each of the 332 activities once, with evidence. A task takes the most cautious rating of its activities, so nothing is overstated.
- The levels: help exists today (deployed doing paid work somewhere), being tested (trials at real sites), shown in research (demos only), and stays human (needs judgement, trust, care or presence that no system shows today).
- Shares of each job are rough estimates, weighted by how important each task is in the O*NET data. They describe tasks, not whether a job disappears.
- Job outlooks come from each region's official projections, picked by where you say you work: the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (Employment Projections 2025–35), Employment and Social Development Canada (Canadian Occupational Projection System 2024–2033, Open Government Licence – Canada), the UK Department for Education (Labour market and skills projections 2020 to 2035, revised 2024, made by the University of Warwick, Open Government Licence), Jobs and Skills Australia (Employment projections May 2025 to May 2035) and, for the 27 EU countries, Cedefop (Skills Forecast 2026, CC BY 4.0). Each country groups jobs its own way. A job is matched to a Canadian group only when two independent methods agree (a published crosswalk and the official job titles each country lists); to a UK group through NFER's published mapping between UK and US occupations; to an Australian group through the official US and Australian links to the international ISCO-08 classification, checked against Australia's job titles; and to a European group through the BLS crosswalk to ISCO-08. When no single group fits, the page says so and shows the US figure. New Zealand's government has not published job projections since its 2019 outlook to 2028, so New Zealand visitors are told that and shown Australia's figure, which uses the same occupation classification, as the nearest official one.
- Job tasks and titles come from the O*NET 31.0 Database by the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL/ETA), used under CC BY 4.0. Simbeing merged, rated and summarised them.
Public attention: how it is measured, and our rules
- What it is. Public attention measures how much people read and write about a robot. It is not a rating of quality, safety or value, and it is never presented as one.
- Attention (45%): English Wikipedia views over the last 90 days, only when the robot has its own article that names its maker. Brand or company articles don't count.
- News (35%): stories about the robot from reputable press in the last 12 months.
- Market (20%): units, fleet size and deployments reported for that model. A company-wide figure counts once, for the maker's newest current model.
- Each part is compared only with robots in the same section (humanoids, machines or vehicles). Only current robots are compared; retired ones are marked historic and not ranked.
Our rules for rankings and badges
- Only positive recognition. Ranks and scores are shown only for the top 25 robots in each section, plus the Hidden gem and Trending badges. There is no "least popular" list, and no robot is labelled as ranking low.
- The working is shown. Every profile lists the inputs behind its attention figure (Wikipedia views with the article linked, press stories, reported deployments) and the date they were measured.
- Facts are sourced; badges are our method. Specs, prices and deployments always cite a public source. Badges and rankings are the result of the published method on this page, not statements about a product's quality.
- Same method for everyone. One method applies to every maker. Paying for advertising or sponsorship never changes a score, rank, badge or position. Any paid placement is labelled "Sponsored" and kept apart from rankings.
- Corrections within 5 business days. If a maker or reader shows that a figure is wrong, we correct or remove it within five business days and record the change on What changed. A correction address is coming soon.
- Hidden gems are current robots first shown in the last six years whose makers publish all six key specs (height, weight, speed, payload, battery and joints) but that get little attention so far. Trending means Wikipedia views in the last week are well above the month before.
How to read it
- A robot is listed when it has a human-like body (torso, head and two arms; legs or a wheeled base), was shown in public and has a public source. Toys, animatronics and never-built concepts are left out.
- “First shown” is the first public reveal: a video, presentation or press event. “Released” is when it went on sale, shipped or entered paid service.
- Missing figures stay “not published”. Robots without a figure are left out of that ranking rather than guessed. A few robots are excluded from a ranking for a stated reason, such as an unverified prototype claim.
- Prices are list, launch or pre-order prices converted to US dollars at the time, with the original currency noted.
- Unit counts are usually company figures. Analysts’ industry totals differ because they count different things.
- Photos are free-licence images from Wikimedia Commons or official images from each maker's own website or press kit, credited on each profile. Robots without one show a plain drawing of that kind of machine, marked as having no public photo yet. Makers can ask for any image to be replaced or removed.
