Overview
Figure 03 is the third-generation general-purpose humanoid from California-based Figure AI, announced in October 2025 and rebuilt from the ground up for two goals at once: high-volume manufacturing on Figure’s BotQ line and operation in unstructured home environments. It runs Helix, Figure’s in-house vision-language-action (VLA) model, entirely on board.

| Status | Early production, ramping at BotQ; enterprise deployments live, home availability targeted from late 2026 |
Pricing
No public price. Figure sells to enterprises rather than as an off-the-shelf product. Founder Brett Adcock has stated a long-term goal of under $20,000 per robot at scale; price figures circulating on third-party sites are unconfirmed.
AI & autonomy
Figure 03 is controlled by Helix, Figure’s proprietary vision-language-action model: a single neural network that turns onboard camera input and natural-language commands directly into motion, running fully on the robot. New tasks are taught by demonstration.
Deployment & traction
Figure raised over $1bn in a Series C at a roughly $39bn post-money valuation (September 2025), backed by NVIDIA, Microsoft, Intel Capital and the OpenAI Startup Fund, among others. Its BotQ factory reached about one robot per hour and had delivered 350+ units by April 2026, with a stated goal of 100,000 robots over four years. The most mature deployment is at BMW’s Spartanburg, South Carolina plant; a second commercial customer, widely reported as UPS, has been signed.
