Notes

No manufacturer source states Alpha's height, weight, or degrees-of-freedom with a checkable literal quote. Clone's own /research/ specs page currently reads 'We are currently researching, page will be available soon' (accessed 2026-09-20). Aggregator sites (Humanoid Index, Humanoid.guide, etc.) widely repeat figures of ~170 cm / ~60 kg / 164 DOF, but per the evidence rules these do not qualify as a claimed-status source because they do not cite a traceable manufacturer statement for those exact numbers. Specs are left empty rather than sourced to an aggregator.
No checkout price has ever been published by Clone Robotics; the pre-order page collects a waitlist signup without a stated amount, so price_history is empty rather than guessed. Clone's 2023 pitch mentioned an aspirational ~$20,000 target price, and the founder repeated a similar figure in a March 2026 interview, but neither is an orderable price.
No independent or uncut demonstration video of Alpha walking or performing tasks live could be confirmed during this build; walking is reported by trade press as a 2027 target, and the 2025 preorder window is reported to have passed without shipments. Delivery status is therefore recorded as 'claimed' (announced + preorder claim), not 'demonstrated' or 'shipped'.
Clone Robotics' operational presence is reported in Wrocław, Poland (R&D/manufacturing) while corporate/investor materials list a US entity; manufacturer.country is set to US pending a single authoritative filing, and this should be revisited if a primary source pins one jurisdiction.
