Raised doorway strips and carpet edges can stop EBO Air 2 from moving between rooms.
Free robot product ideas for makers and founders
Every promising product starts with a moment of friction. We investigate how people use specific home robots, identify problems and improvised fixes, and develop physical product ideas you could prototype and evaluate as a business.
Each free report brings together the evidence, existing alternatives, a concept sketch, a first-build plan, pricing assumptions, and the questions that could make or break the idea. A separate consumer page shows how the proposed product might appeal to owners and gathers early interest.

These reports are starting points for builders, not validated businesses. Product fit, safety, pricing, and willingness to buy still need testing. A waitlist signup signals interest; it is not a purchase.
