Romi added to the catalog

MIXI's Lacatan-model Romi joins HomeBotRadar with confirmed $658 pricing (~¥98,780), ~3 h battery, vision sharing, and required ~$13/mo cloud subscription in Japan.

We added Romi to HomeBotRadar. It is MIXI's palm-sized conversational AI robot. The Lacatan model generates natural Japanese dialogue, shares what its 120° camera sees, and builds long-term memory of daily moments with owners.

Our Romi profile covers official specs from romi.ai and MIXI press releases (10 × 11.2 × 11.1 cm, ~400 g, 2.4-inch face, quad-core 1.6 GHz CPU, 2875 mAh battery with ~180 min runtime). Hardware lists at about $658 (¥98,780 tax included) with a required cloud plan at ~$13 per month or ~$131 per year. General sales began July 25, 2025 at shop.romi.ai and about 40 Japanese electronics retailers.

Open Romi vs EMO or Romi vs LOVOT to stack Romi against other conversation-first companions. Browse ElliQ if you want a plug-in elder-care desk robot with an English US membership path instead of a Japanese cloud companion.
