Rhem is $1 to reserve today. It is a senior-care home robot, not a humanoid.

Rhem is taking a $1 reservation. We opened https://www.rhem.ai/order on 14 September 2026. Due today showed $1.00.

The page says that $1 locks an early price of $599, fully refundable, and credited toward the order. They list a later launch price of $1,099. $599 is not what you pay today. $1 is.

The Kickstarter campaign is not live yet. The page still shows a July 20 “complete your order” date that is already past. It also says Rhem ships early November. That is their plan. We have not confirmed a delivery.

Is it for sale?

You can put $1 down today. You cannot take delivery today.

What does it cost?

$1 due today, 14 September 2026, on that official page. The locked early price they advertise is $599. The page’s $1,099 figure is their listed later price.

What it is

A home health companion aimed at fall detection and family safety. Not a walking humanoid. That is what they wrote. We have not tried one.
