P0
P0 is the first humanoid prototype from Pink Robotics, a Darmstadt, Germany, startup (legal entity Anyscrew GmbH) founded by engineer Christopher Helmke. Designed and made in Germany, it stands 1.75 m tall, weighs 82 kg, has 32 degrees of freedom and can handle an 8 kg payload. It is aimed at package handling and sorting in distribution centers, where its human proportions let it work in existing facilities. Its demonstrations are currently teleoperated while vision-language-action models are trained for manipulation, and Pink Robotics is preparing a logistics pilot with a major supermarket chain. Pink Robotics introduced the robot in a video on August 24, 2026.
Quick Overview & Key Facts
P0 is a humanoid system developed by Pink Robotics in Germany and launched in 2026. Starting price is estimated at USD 60,000. It is currently ranked #323 in most-viewed humanoid robots on Origin of Bots. It supports Parcels, packages and bins in distribution-center workflows. Operating battery runtime is rated at Approx. 1.5–2.5 hours per charge. Primary applications include Package handling and sorting in distribution centers, item picking, parcel handling and bin sorting in supply-chain operations, with a supermarket-chain logistics pilot in preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about this robot
Q1. What is P0, and what problem is it designed to solve?
P0 is the first humanoid robot prototype from Pink Robotics, a German startup in Darmstadt. It is meant to take on repetitive package handling and sorting in distribution centers, working in spaces built for people.
Q2. What are the main capabilities and key features of P0?
It is a full-size, human-proportioned robot with many degrees of freedom, hands with two-finger gripping claws and a useful payload for parcels. It was designed, 3D printed and laser welded in-house, and its manipulation is being trained with vision-language-action models.
Q3. Who is P0 built for, and which industries can benefit from it?
It is aimed at logistics and supply-chain operators, such as supermarket distribution centers, that need to sort items, handle parcels and pick from bins.
Q4. Is P0 a commercial product or still a research prototype?
It is a prototype. Its demonstrations are currently teleoperated, and Pink Robotics is still developing the autonomy and preparing a first pilot.
Q5. Is P0 currently available for purchase, and when is it expected to ship?
Not as a finished product. Pink Robotics accepts inquiries from interested companies, and a price of about sixty thousand dollars has been reported for the prototype, but it has not published a price or delivery date.
Q6. How does P0 actually work in real-world environments?
A person can operate the robot remotely to demonstrate tasks, and the resulting data helps train vision-language-action models. Its human proportions let it use existing shelves, totes and workstations without changes to the building.
Q7. When was P0 announced or officially launched?
Pink Robotics presented P0 in a video published on August 24, 2026, and press coverage followed the next day.
Q8. How is P0 different from other robots in the same category?
Unlike many humanoids from large, well-funded companies, P0 comes from a small German team that builds its own parts and emphasizes industrial engineering and a low-cost, in-house approach.
Q9. Does P0 require additional development or customization after purchase?
Yes. As an early prototype it needs further engineering, autonomy training and site-specific integration before it can work independently in a customer's facility.
Q10. What is the future roadmap or planned upgrades for P0?
Pink Robotics is preparing a logistics pilot with a major supermarket chain and raising a seed round to expand its Darmstadt engineering team, aiming to make the robot more capable and autonomous for supply-chain work.
