Against the record
Vicarious Surgical Robotic System, from Vicarious Surgical, is at stage 1 of 5 on our ladder: demo only. Shown in videos or staged events; no units with customers. The latest milestone on its record is from 21 July 2026: Shareholders voted to shut Vicarious down and liquidate it at once, and the remaining staff lost their jobs. The company had raised about $300 million in total. Its service or maker has since stopped.
This video comes from the maker's own channel, and makers show their robots at their best. The stage above comes from dated public records, not from the video.
From the video's description
Vicarious Surgical was founded in 2014 by Adam Sachs, Sammy Khalifa, and Dr. Barry Greene. Inspired by the movie The Fantastic Voyage in which doctors shrink down in size to travel within the human body, the founders’ vision was to enable surgeons to essentially do the same.
