Droids: A sourced robot specification database
Droids catalogs commercially available robots in comparable units, linking each specification to the document where it was published.
Field notes
The catalog organizes commercial robots by type, manufacturer, country, payload, reach, and runtime, then sends each displayed figure back to a datasheet or product page. It reports 82 models, 15 manufacturers, 253 sourced specifications, and 174 source documents. Droids says it retains conflicting values as disputed rather than flattening them into a single answer, while normalized units support side-by-side filtering. A JSON API and llms.txt are also advertised for machine-readable citation.
