Figure 03
Figure 03 is Figure AI's third humanoid robot, introduced on 9 October 2025 with hardware and software rebuilt from the previous generation. It walks on two legs and recharges itself by resting its feet on an induction base. Figure presents it as designed for the home: fingertips sensitive to touch for a more secure grip on plates and glasses, washable fabric coverings in place of rigid parts, and an audio system for speaking to it in near real time.
It has cameras on the torso and in the palms of its hands, and a microphone for voice commands; perception, movement and reasoning are processed on board, not on a server. According to Figure, the 03 does laundry, cleaning and dishwashing on its own. The only real-world use Figure has made public, however, is industrial: since June 2026 a unit has been working at BMW's Spartanburg plant in South Carolina, where it moves a cart and selects parts along the assembly line.
The 03 is not for sale: the website has no shop, order form or price, only a general contact, and Europe is not mentioned. At home, today, the brand enters another way: through the Index app, which pays people to do chores in the home and record them. No home robot has been delivered.

Pros and cons
In favour
- Perception and movement are processed on board, in real time: the robot decides on its own how to move, without following a pre-set script.
- Cameras in the palms of its hands as well: they keep vision working when the hands are inside a cabinet or in a tight space, not only the ones on the torso.
- The new audio system allows a near real-time voice conversation: you can talk to the robot and assign it a task.
- The fingertips can tell a secure grip from an object that is about to slip, down to three grams of pressure: useful with plates and glasses. source
Worth knowing
- It is not for sale: no price, shop or order form, only a general sales contact, and the only real-world use made public is a factory pilot.
- No European presence: the only locations Figure names are in the United States, between the BotQ factory and the BMW plant.
- The autonomy claimed for the home does not yet appear proven outside the factory: the only public use is the assembly sequence at BMW.
