About qtvue — frequently asked questions

qtvue sells, programs, and integrates Unitree robots for your specific use case. We are a pre-launch Unitree specialist — Go2, B2, G1, R1, H1, H2, G1-D, and arms. We work inside the same public SDKs the Unitree teams publish (unitree_sdk2, unitree_ros2, unitree_sim_isaaclab) and deliver the program, the integration, and the security posture that makes the platform do the job.

Unitree is shipping some of the most capable robots on the market at price points that change who's a real customer. The same platform can be a $1,600 lab purchase or a $100K industrial asset. We focus on Unitree because the software stack is consistent across the range, the SDKs are public, and the price points make our engagement model work.

Four buyer types, all mixed: (1) manufacturers automating a process they can't easily automate any other way, (2) manufacturing engineers who need a programming partner for a platform they already own, (3) research and education labs doing legged-robotics or manipulation work, (4) security and inspection teams looking for autonomous patrol. The engagement is shaped to the use case, not the other way around.

Engineering and integration is led from the United States. On-site work is performed where the customer is — we have a partner network for regions we don't staff directly. Programming and remote work happens anywhere; integration requires physical presence.

Programming-only engagements (you already own the platform): 2–8 weeks. Sell-and-Program (we supply the platform and write the code): 4–10 weeks. Full integration (mounting, networking, perception, training): 6–16 weeks. We give you a realistic timeline in the engineering review, not a sales date.

We integrate off-the-shelf Unitree. We do not manufacture robots. We do build custom EOAT (end-of-arm tooling), custom mounts, and custom perception stacks. This keeps your hardware supportable through Unitree's normal channels and your spares standardized.

Programming-only: $5K–$60K. Sell-and-Program with a Go2 or R1: $15K–$80K. Full integration of a B2 or G1 with custom EOAT: $80K–$300K. Pricing is fixed, written, and approved before we start work. We don't do time-and-materials.

Submit your use case via the intake form. Five questions, three minutes. We reply with an engineering review within 1 business day. The review is free, names the right platform, the SDK plan, the rough timeline, and a no-surprise cost band.

Yes. We offer 30-day on-site warranty after sign-off as standard, and optional long-term support contracts for fleets. We don't do 24/7 hotlines pre-launch — if you need a support contract, we'll quote it case by case.

We're growing the engineering team selectively. See /careers for open roles. We hire robotics engineers with real Unitree, ROS 2, and Isaac Lab experience — not just robotics engineers generically.
