For the curious:
3'7" · 44 lb · 12h runtime · reaches floor to 35"
It's frontier tech. A year ago a taught task worked 60% of the time. Today, 80%. We're going for 99, and every update ships to your robot.
Developers get an SDK and can publish to the store.

Why we built it: the book you'd write, the Saturday with your kids. It's not missing because life is hard. It's missing because life is busy.
We're giving that time back to 50 homes. Numbered 01 to 50.

Introducing Cues: Voice & Gesture control for Matic
We raised $115M and spent 9 years to make the world’s first intuitive home robot
Say you spilled coffee: Point to the spill and say, "Hey Matic, clean this" and it will hear, see, locate in 3D, and go clean on its own.
Matic comes with a lot of features:
1. Say "Hey Matic" - it locates your voice, turns, and looks at you
2. Say "Hey Matic, follow me" and start walking. Matic will follow behind
3. Say "Hey Matic, go clean the living room". Since it knows your house map, it navigates and just does it
It's so easy, a 5 year old and an 80 year old can use it and it understands 75 different languages.
Matic has 8x the airflow, specialised cleaning algorithms for rugs, corners, toekicks, mopping, etc and cleans better than any other robot vacuum.
Also keeps improving with software updates.
13,000 families use and love Matic.
WIRED magazine gave it a 10/10 (the only hardware to receive this rating in a decade)
Buy yours at maticrobots.com and if you don't love it after 6 months, we'll give you a full refund.
To celebrate our launch, we're cleaning 300 homes with Matic in San Francisco and New York City.
Comment "Matic" below, we'll send you the link to sign up and come to your doorstep to clean your home with Matic.
