Sunday Robotics
Sunday Robotics develops physical AI software and household humanoid service robots engineered for home assistance and autonomous domestic chores. Headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, Sunday Robotics pioneers the 'Memo' (Sunday Bot) wheeled mobile humanoid manipulator. Using its proprietary Memory-Developer data collection glove and Action Chunking with Transformers (ACT) models, Sunday Robotics enables mobile manipulators to learn complex household chores—such as folding laundry, sorting toys, and clearing tables—from real-world human demonstration.
💡Notable Achievement: Sunday Robotics introduced the 'Memory-Developer Glove' paradigm, enabling rapid crowdsourced collection of thousands of real-world human manipulation hours to pre-train home robots before physical deployment.
What Does Sunday Robotics Do?
Sunday Robotics is tackling the holy grail of consumer robotics: a practical, safe robot for domestic chores. Instead of relying on expensive bipedal legs that pose safety hazards in homes, Sunday combines a stable wheeled base with dual compliant arms. By leveraging its breakthrough Memory-Developer glove to capture thousands of hours of domestic human demonstrations, Sunday trains transformer-based physical AI policies that generalize across diverse home environments.
“Sunday Robotics builds safe, compliant household humanoid robots that automate everyday domestic chores through physical AI imitation learning.”

Memo
Manufactured by Sunday Robotics
Memo is a home-focused humanoid-style robot developed by Sunday Robotics to autonomously perform domestic chores such as dishwashing, laundry folding, tidying, and espresso preparation. Standing 1.7 meters tall on a wheeled base, it features a torso with two multi-DoF arms and dual grippers, capable of reaching from floor level up to around 2.1 meters (7 feet). Designed for family environments, Memo emphasizes safety and stability through a low center of gravity, compliant control, and a soft silicone exterior. It learns from real household data via Sunday’s Skill Capture Glove, mastering long-horizon tasks in unstructured homes.

Frequently Asked Questions
10 AnswersVerified answers, company specifications, and deployment details about Sunday Robotics
What is the unit purchase price or subscription model for Sunday Bot (Memo)?
Sunday Robotics plans consumer release pricing around $20,000 to $25,000 USD (or a home lease subscription around $499 USD per month), targeting high-net-worth early adopters before scaling down to consumer household price parity.
What is the commercial timeline and availability status of Sunday's Memo robot?
Founded in 2023, Sunday Robotics deployed beta data collection gloves in 2024 and 2025, unveiling the Memo prototype in late 2025 with commercial consumer beta trials commencing across Bay Area homes in 2026.
Where are Sunday Robotics platforms currently piloted and tested?
Currently deployed in over 50 test homes and residential living labs across Silicon Valley, California, performing longitudinal real-world daily chore execution.
What target domestic workflows does Memo automate?
Workflows include picking up toys from floor surfaces, folding towels and garments, unloading dishwashers, wiping kitchen countertops, and organizing domestic clutter.
What mechanical drivetrain and actuator architecture powers Memo?
Memo utilizes an omnidirectional wheeled mobile base coupled with a compliant telescoping spine and dual 6-DoF backdrivable cable-driven arms, providing safe, quiet operation in residential home environments.
What end-effector dexterity and tactile sensing does Memo use?
Equipped with dual soft compliant parallel grippers featuring high-friction silicone pads and capacitive touch arrays designed to pick up both rigid mugs and deformable fabrics.
What is Memo's continuous battery runtime and charging system?
Powered by a 36V 800 Wh lithium battery pack providing 3 to 5 hours of intermittent household tasks, returning autonomously to an unobtrusive floor charging mat.
What is Memo's operational autonomy level versus teleoperation dependency?
Executes chore sequences with 85%+ task autonomy via ACT and diffusion policy models, relying on remote human supervisor assistance only when novel unfamiliar objects or obstacles cause plan interruptions.
What sensory perception suite and foundation AI models govern Memo?
Features dual wide-angle RGB head cameras, chest-level depth cameras, base LiDAR, and Sunday's ACT-1 policy model fine-tuned on crowdsourced demonstration datasets.
What worker and family safety mechanisms protect home residents and pets?
Ultralight arm construction (under 4 kg per arm), low-power torque limits (cannot exert more than 15 N force), soft foam body padding, and instant stall-on-touch safety stops.
