About capabilities.
The 10 questions buyers ask when they know the job but not the robot. Always open — no dropdowns.
-
What does "capability" mean on the RobotLAB site?
A capability is what the robot does — cleaning, delivery, cooking, security, customer service, wayfinding, disinfection, brand ambassador. We organize the site by capability because most buyers know the job they need done before they know which robot does it. Each capability page lists the robots that perform it, the industries that use it, and payback math.
-
How is the capabilities hub organized?
Four groups: Facilities (cleaning, disinfection, security, agriculture), Service (delivery, customer service, room service, wayfinding, brand ambassador), Food (cooking, food delivery), and Education (STEM, VR/AR, coding & AI, fabrication labs, innovation labs, AI labs). Click any tile to see the robot lineup for that capability.
-
Which capabilities are most popular?
By revenue: cleaning (256M+ sq ft cleaned) and delivery (4.3M+ tasks, 93.9M lbs moved) are the two biggest. Followed by customer service, STEM, and disinfection. The Facilities and Service groups together represent ~70% of fleet volume.
-
How do I figure out which capability I need?
Ask: what task is hardest to staff or most repetitive? If it's floor cleaning at scale, that's cleaning. If it's running plates to tables, that's delivery. If it's greeting guests at a desk, customer service. Many operators buy two robots that handle two complementary capabilities (e.g. Whiz for cleaning + BellaBot for delivery). Use the homepage finder for a tuned shortlist.
-
Are there overlaps between capabilities?
Yes. Pepper shows up under customer service, brand ambassador, and STEM. Temi covers delivery, customer service, and telepresence. BellaBot handles delivery, food delivery, and room service. Each capability page cross-links the others so you can compare robots that do multiple jobs.
-
What service does RobotLAB provide for each capability?
Capability-specific setup: cleaning robots need floor-plan mapping, delivery robots need waypoint training, disinfection robots need protocol approval. We handle all of it — site walk, mapping, training, monitoring, service — under one $199/mo standard plan. 97% average fleet uptime across capabilities.
-
What's the typical ROI range by capability?
Cleaning robots: 9–14 month payback. Delivery (restaurants): 7–12 months. Bussing: 7–10 months. Security patrol: 14–20 months. UV-C disinfection: 12–18 months plus avoided-infection benefit. STEM kits in K-12: priced as curriculum, not ROI. Run capability-specific math in the ROI calculators.
-
Can I see real deployment data per capability?
Yes — each capability page links to case studies filtered by capability. Headline totals across capabilities: 256M+ sq ft cleaned, 4.3M+ delivery tasks, 93.9M lbs moved, 87,000+ delivery miles.
-
Which finder questions help narrow down a capability?
Three questions: (1) What's the job — clean, deliver, greet, secure, cook, teach? (2) What's the volume — sq ft, tasks/day, hours of patrol? (3) Indoors, outdoors, or both? Combine these in the homepage finder for a 3–4 robot shortlist matched to your capability.
