Why lease

Move faster before you decide to buy

Validate a use case, run a pilot, scale for a project, or avoid a large CapEx decision — with the same hardware we stock and support in-house.

Who leasing works for

Research labs

Evaluating new platforms without locking capital into a single architecture.

Startups

Building proof-of-concept systems and iterating before a purchase order.

Enterprise pilots

Running time-boxed deployments with room to change platform choices later.

Film, media & events

Short-term operated rentals for activations, trade shows, and productions.

Benefits

Why teams choose leasing

Lower upfront cost

Spread payments over time with flexible terms instead of a large capital outlay.

Try before you buy

Validate the application before committing to a permanent hardware purchase.

Scale as needed

Add units for short-term projects or reduce capacity when the project ends.

Stay current

Upgrade into newer hardware at the end of the lease cycle if requirements change.

Support options

Add maintenance, repair, calibration, and firmware coverage when needed.

Lease terms

Typical engagement windows

Delivery, setup, and basic training can be included. Optional add-ons include maintenance, extended support, and lease-to-own structures.

  1. Short-term — 1 to 3 months

    Pilots, demos, and research sprints with a clear exit.

  2. Medium-term — 6 to 12 months

    Ongoing projects that need stable capacity without CapEx.

  3. Long-term — 1 to 3 years

    Production or extended research programs, including lease-to-own.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum lease term?

Our minimum lease term is one month. Shorter event and demo rentals (hourly or daily) are also available for corporate events and trade shows.

Do you offer lease-to-own options?

Yes. Most platforms support a lease-to-own structure where monthly payments can be applied toward the purchase price. Ask about this when requesting a quote.

What is included in the monthly lease price?

Every lease includes the robot hardware, setup support, documentation, and access to our data platform. Optional add-ons include maintenance coverage, firmware updates, calibration, and operator training.

Can I get a discount for longer lease terms?

Yes. Quarterly leases (3 months) receive a 10% discount off the monthly rate. Annual leases receive a 20% discount. Multi-year agreements are also available with custom pricing.

Do you ship nationally or only in the Bay Area?

We handle leases nationwide. Same-day pickup is available at our San Francisco location. For longer leases, we coordinate shipping and remote setup support anywhere in the US.

What happens if the robot is damaged?

Normal wear and covered failures are handled by us at no additional cost when maintenance coverage is included. Damage resulting from misuse or accidents is billed separately. We walk through all terms before signing.

Can I upgrade mid-lease?

Yes. If a newer platform becomes available during your lease term, you can negotiate an upgrade. We aim to keep lessees on current-generation hardware for longer programs.

What types of organizations lease?

Research labs, startups, enterprise teams, government programs, and film/media productions. If you need production-ready hardware without a full CapEx commitment, leasing is a fit.
