What is Homebot One KOKO?
KOKO is a physical home robot being developed by Homebot One in Fremont, California. The project focuses on movement, presence, and useful interaction in household spaces. It is undergoing in-home testing and engineering validation; a demonstration should distinguish current capabilities from features still in development.
Homebot One is the company; KOKO is the robot. If your search began with “Homebot”, use the full name Homebot One and the domain homebotone.com to identify this project. The company also notes that KOKO was introduced as MyMemo One during its early development.
What is the KOKO robot designed to do?
KOKO Home describes a vision for everyday interaction that includes spatial memory, household routines, family experiences, and small physical actions. These areas explain the direction of development. They should not be read as a promise that every depicted activity works independently in every home.
Start with one task you care about. Explain the desired result, who would use the robot, and where the activity would happen. Then ask the team to demonstrate the current build and show how much setup, supervision, or human assistance it needs.
- Interaction: how does KOKO receive a request and communicate that it needs help?
- Movement: which room layouts, surfaces, and thresholds have been tested?
- Household routines: which steps work today, and which are development goals?
- Control: how can someone pause an activity or stop the robot?
How is a home robot different from a smart home device?
A smart home routine can coordinate devices, such as switching a compatible lamp on at a scheduled time. A physical robot introduces movement or other interaction with the room. What matters is whether that physical interaction helps with your particular goal.
The International Federation of Robotics describes service robots as performing useful tasks with a degree of autonomy. Autonomy can be partial: success at one defined activity does not establish that a robot can handle unrelated chores without supervision. Ask about the conditions behind each demonstration.
KOKO Home, Care, Research, and Developer
The Homebot One lineup presents four contexts for exploring KOKO: Home for household experiences, Care for independent-living contexts, Research for robotics studies, and Developer for applications and prototyping. Choose the context closest to your intended use when contacting the team.
The lineup does not by itself establish retail availability, delivery dates, or a finished feature set. Ask which hardware, interfaces, and access arrangements apply to the version you want to evaluate.
KOKO robot price and your next step
The Homebot One homepage and KOKO Home page reviewed on September 23, 2026 do not list a retail price. Use the official contact or demo request to ask about current pricing and availability for your intended use. A waitlist or a demo invitation should not be treated as a purchase or a confirmed delivery date.
For a useful first conversation, share your country or region, the setting where you want to try KOKO, and one or two tasks you would like to see. Ask what is confirmed now and what remains under development.
