Booster inquiry pricing (from $5,999) · Updated 2026-07
Booster advertises the K1 from $5,999 through an inquiry route rather than a checkout. That is the Geek edition floor; the Edu and Pro editions add compute and sensing and cost more. The K1 sold out within hours of its CES 2026 unveiling, so lead times matter as much as price — confirm both in writing.
About the Booster Robotics K1 Education Humanoid
The K1 is Booster's education humanoid and the cheapest route into a genuinely developer-grade biped. At 95cm and roughly 20kg with 22 degrees of freedom, full sensing, and up to 200 TOPS of onboard compute in the higher editions, it carries the same competition pedigree as the larger T1 — it won the RoboCup 2025 KidSize championship. Three editions (Geek, Edu, Pro) let a department start cheap and scale, with the entry point advertised from $5,999 through an inquiry rather than a checkout. Demand has been the constraint rather than price: the K1 sold out within hours of its CES 2026 unveiling. Against a Unitree R1 at $4,900 the K1 costs more but ships with the developer access that makes it usable as a teaching platform rather than a demonstration.
