GameChanger product of 2016, and the T3 team called Aido “the future of home
robotics, unlike anything they have reviewed so far”.
The Aido team has already raised
250,000$+ in pre-orders on Indiegogo, with pledges starting from $499, backers
can expect to receive their robots by October 2016. This follows two previous
rounds of funding from leading angel investors. The Aido team has been

business robots to be $1.5 billion by 2019.
