Totototoito/vuntum-robots

Vuntum robotics database

The main characteristics of personal robots and humanoids, with the maker and the source of each value, from Vuntum, an independent French and English media outlet on robots with embedded AI. A missing value means "not disclosed", never "no".

• Version: 2026.09, a monthly snapshot published on 2026-10-24, cut at the end of the previous month (2026-09-30). Tags of this repository: one per version. See CHANGELOG.md.
• Licence: CC BY-NC 4.0. Attribution is required: "Source: Vuntum (https://vuntum.com)" with a link to the sheet quoted. Commercial use: licence on request, contact@vuntum.com.
• Releases published before 24 October 2026 stay under CC BY 4.0 (a Creative Commons licence cannot be withdrawn). They are the commits up to the tag last-cc-by-4.0.
• Languages: French (fr split) and English (en split). Same robots, same facts, texts translated.
• Files: data/<config>.<language>.jsonl (the ones the Hub reads), the same tables as .csv and .json.
• Row links carry a ref code that identifies this release.
• Live data: the site and the API and MCP server give the current values, with prices, availability, evidence levels, quotes and history. Full access with a key: https://vuntum.com/en/data.

from datasets import load_dataset

facts = load_dataset("Totototoito/vuntum-robots", "facts", split="en", revision="2026.09")

Columns

robots: slug, name, manufacturer, manufacturer_slug, category (form), segment (use), announced_year, url, language.

facts: robot_slug, criterion, label, value (as displayed), conditions (version, market or test conditions, key=value; ...), source_name, source_url, language.

manufacturers: slug, name, country_code, website_url, url, language.

Limits

• Values come from public sources, checked automatically against the exact quote they are taken from. A figure announced by a maker is not a figure measured by anyone else. The evidence level and the quote of each value are on the live site.
• Several values for one criterion can coexist: different versions or measurement conditions, to be read with conditions.
• A snapshot is one month behind the site. Method: https://vuntum.com/en/methodology.
• The editorial articles of the site are not part of this dataset (all rights reserved).
