Most robot deals lock you in for years. Ask a provider what happens in month fourteen, when the job has changed, a better robot has come out or the second shop did not work out, and there is no good answer. We built letbot around that answer and wrote it into the contract.
“If the second shop doesn’t work out, I need to be able to move the robot — or hand the whole thing to someone else — without paying off three years for a machine I can’t use.”
We start with independent and mid-size shops because the same five jobs come up in every one of them. That means a contract one shop no longer needs is still useful to the next shop, and every field after retail will open the same way.
Overnight, from the back room to the shelf, with products pulled to the front. Night hours are the most expensive on the payroll.
Patrols after closing with a live camera feed. A real person checks every alert before anyone is called out.
Unloads roll cages, sorts stock by aisle and takes it out to the shop floor.
Answers “where is it?” and walks customers to the product, in their own language.
Finds empty shelves, wrong price labels and misplaced products, and reports them before opening.
Anyone can get a humanoid onto a site. Step five is what the others will not put in writing.
We watch a shift and tell you which job would pay for itself first. If none would, we say so.
We choose from any maker and show you the humanoids we turned down, and why.
We install it, train it on your floor, certify it and train your staff.
Your letbot, service, insurance and monitoring in one fee. Nobody on your side operates it.
Swap your letbot, pass the contract on, or leave at the price printed on day one.
When a business no longer needs its humanoid, the contract is listed with the months left and any amount the seller adds to make it attractive. Another business takes it over, and the seller has nothing more to pay.

Example rows. The real board is open to customers with a contract. When a contract is taken over, the seller owes nothing more, we credit-check the buyer, and we move, re-certify and retrain the robot for the new site at our cost.
These are the manufacturers whose humanoids we have reviewed and priced for shop work. We can buy from all of them and are tied to none, which is why we can swap your letbot for another maker's at month 12 or 24.
A name on this list means we have assessed and priced the humanoid. It does not mean the maker endorses letbot. Marks belong to their owners.
Each row is a real site: the job it asked for in its own words, the humanoid we matched and how many paid hours it takes off the rota each week. Shops first; other fields join the table as they open.
| What the site asked for | Shop | Job | Humanoid | Hours | Paid hours saved / week | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| “Face the chilled aisle and fill the gaps before we open at seven.” | Grocery · 450 m² · DK | Shelf restocking | Unitree G1 | 22:00 – 06:00 | [N] h | LIVE |
| “Walk the shop after close. Only call me if something is actually wrong.” | Grocery · 380 m² · DK | Security patrol | [MODEL] | 22:00 – 06:00 | [N] h | LIVE |
| “Count every facing before the order goes in, not after.” | Grocery · 520 m² · DK | Stock scanning | [MODEL] | 05:00 – 06:30 | [N] h | PILOT |
| “Break down the roll cages so the morning team starts on the floor.” | Grocery · 610 m² · DK | Back room | Galbot G1 | 04:00 – 07:00 | [N] h | INSTALLING |
| “Walk a customer to the shelf, in Danish, English or Polish.” | Grocery · 450 m² · DK | Customer guidance | [MODEL] | Opening hours | [N] h | PLANNED |
Humanoids for all does not mean everywhere at once. A field opens when enough sites do the same job for a contract to change hands. Retail is the first place that is already true, so it is where we run today.
Leaving early costs four months of fees, about what equipment leasing charges. We are not cheaper. The difference is that we print the amount for every month in the contract you sign.
| If you stop in | Paid so far | To terminate | To pass on | Swap fee |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Month 6 | €12.794 | €8.529 | €1.500 + | — |
| Month 12 | €25.588 | €8.529 | €1.500 + | €7.500 |
| Month 18 | €38.382 | €8.529 | €1.500 + | — |
| Month 24 | €51.175 | €8.529 | €1.500 + | €7.500 |

Worked example for the Unitree G1 at €2.132 a month. Passing the contract on can also cost whatever you choose to add to attract a buyer; we tell you that figure before you list.
What your letbot learns in your shop has four parts. Three can go with you, be sold or be lent to other sites, and what they earn comes off your monthly fee. One cannot, and we tell you which.
Every shift the humanoid learns your floor, your routines and the way your best people do the job. That record belongs to you, not to us and not to the maker. Take it to the next robot, the next site, or out the door.
Under the new EU Machinery Regulation, a machine that is changed or moved must be certified again. That is the hidden cost of changing your mind. With us it is included in every swap and handover, not a bill that arrives afterwards.
We walk your site, watch a shift and look at your rota. If a humanoid does not pay for itself in your business, we tell you that instead of selling you one.
Humanoids for all, on simple terms. Starting in retail.
