What it is

Vendor

Fourier Intelligence · based in CN

Status

Shipping: Generally purchasable and being delivered.

Confidence

Vendor claim Rests on the vendor’s own statements. Nobody independent has verified it.

Can I get it where I am?

The vendor has published no statement about its worldwide rollout that we have found.

All tracked regions

“Not announced” means the vendor had said nothing about that region when it was last checked, on the date shown; “Not offered” means the vendor has said no. An EU-wide offer counts for Ireland, the Netherlands and Germany unless the vendor says otherwise for one of them. Prices are recorded in the currency the vendor published and are never converted in the data.

May it legally be sold there?

This is a different question from whether the vendor offers it, and the two come apart: a vendor can hold open pre-orders for a robot that has no current path to being lawfully imported. The site records them separately and never merges them.

• United States

  Unknown fcc-covered-list

  Whether the robot may lawfully be sold here is not established. We do not infer it.

  FCC's Covered List rule for foreign-produced advanced robotic devices took effect 2026-07-28. A domestic end product (US manufacture plus a domestic-component-cost share of 65% through 2028) is not covered. GR-3 is manufactured in China; no source states a US assembly step or domestic-component share. Models that received FCC equipment authorisation before that date may still be imported, marketed and sold, but may not be modified except for certain software and firmware updates allowed under an FCC waiver until at least 1 January 2029; a product not authorised by that date is not grandfathered. No source states whether GR-3 received FCC authorisation before that date. Fourier has shown GR-3 publicly in the US (CES 2026, Las Vegas) without announcing US sales, so whether the rule would bar its import or sale there is unestablished either way.

What it can do

Listed under Fetching and carrying, Company and conversation, derived from the claims below.

Capability claims in the vendor’s own words, never rewritten into categories. What matters most is the label beside each one: shipped means sold and verified working, demonstrated means shown in a controlled demo, and claimed means asserted and not shown.

How it works

Within a task

Adapts within a task

The robot perceives what is actually in front of it and adjusts. If a sock slips mid-fold, it is meant to recover. This is what the AI-autonomy criterion tests.

How a task starts

Spoken or typed instruction

Descriptive only. A button, a spoken sentence and a schedule are different interfaces, not different degrees of intelligence.

Will it try something new?

Unknown

The vendor has not said whether the robot will attempt a task it was not validated on.

No vendor statement found on whether the robot is restricted to a validated task list or is open-ended.

Human operator

None described

Nothing we found describes a remote human operator completing tasks for this robot. Note that the dataset records this as a plain yes or no, so “no” here means “not described”, not “established to be absent”.

Why it qualifies

A robot is listed only if it meets all four criteria. The evidence is kept so the criteria can be re-tuned against real cases rather than re-argued. How these are applied.

• Multi-task by design

  Met

  Performs two or more distinct household task types. Not a single-purpose appliance, and not one task described several ways.

  Independent Chinese trade press (ZOL) describes the robot fetching and delivering items around the home (for example, bringing a drink after hearing "I'm thirsty"), which is a physical household chore, and providing daily companionship and conversation, which counts as a second task type. The same source also describes security patrol and visitor reception; those are not counted towards this criterion. English-language product-database coverage frames the robot as a care and companion product and does not mention delivery; it does not contradict it.

  Evidence: 2. ZOL (中关村在线)

• Physical manipulation

  Met

  Has arms, grippers or manipulators, and can pick up, move or handle objects.

  Vendor states multi-DOF dexterous hands, 55 DOF total, independently reported by Chinese tech press.

  Evidence: 3. PConline (太平洋科技)

• AI-driven autonomy

  Met

  Copes with unscripted variation within a task: it perceives what is actually there and adapts, rather than replaying a fixed motion sequence. How a task is started is not part of this test.

  Independent press describes a dual-path "fast/slow thinking" architecture (a hardcoded reflex path plus LLM-based reasoning for complex requests) and states the robot responds accurately to vague natural-language requests without any item location or room function being pre-marked, perceiving the actual environment rather than replaying a fixed map. Not verified by independent hands-on testing.

  Evidence: 1. Sina Tech (新浪财经), 2. ZOL (中关村在线)

• Credible home path

  Met

  Targets domestic use, and has a public price, preorder or announced release window. Pure research demos are excluded.

  Preorder opened 2025-09-08 with a confirmed October 2025 launch and delivery start, plus an early-bird discount programme. A year on, an independent product-database listing shows it as "in production" with an indicative (unconfirmed) USD price.
