Digit vs GR-2: which robot wins?

Agility Robotics's Digit against Fourier's GR-2 — price, capability, availability, and a verdict you can act on.

	Digit	GR-2
EST. PRICE	RaaS pricing	Enterprise pricing
HEIGHT	5"-9"- / 175 cm	~5′5″ / 175 cm*
WEIGHT	~65 kg	~63 kg*
PAYLOAD	16 kg	~3 kg per hand*
RUNTIME	~4 hrs	~2 hrs, swappable*
DEXTERITY	Bird-legged biped, tote-handling arms	12-DOF hands with tactile sensing*
AVAILABILITY	Commercial only	Industrial only
WHICHBOT SCORE	7.5 / 10	7.6 / 10
OUR TAKE	The veteran. Longest real-world deployment record of any biped - proof this category works, even if it's not home-bound.	The care-focused humanoid. Born from a rehab-robotics company, GR-2 bets that the killer app is helping humans, not just lifting boxes.

Detailed comparison: Digit vs GR-2

Digit scores 7.5/10 in our independent evaluation; GR-2 scores 7.6/10. That 0.09999999999999964-point gap is real but not decisive — Digit may still be the right fit depending on your use case.

Digit is best for: Logistics operators who value a proven track record over frontier specs. GR-2 is best for: Healthcare innovators and labs exploring robots that work with people, not around them.

Our scoring weighs five factors: autonomous capability, independent verification (third-party evidence scores higher than manufacturer claims), commercial deployment scale, price-to-capability ratio, and real-world availability today. Neither robot here is scored on marketing alone. Digit and GR-2 are both worth evaluating — the right call depends on which robot's documented strengths match your actual workflow.

WHICHBOT VERDICT

Neither robot is sold to consumers — both are commercial platforms. For businesses, GR-2 edges it on our scoring (7.6 vs 7.5), but the right answer depends on your workflow: payload, shift length, and integration support matter more than headline specs.
