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
Phase 2 marked the transition from individual prototypes to a fully integrated surgical platform. Over four years, teams across robotics, visualization, controls, and safety worked in parallel to bring complex subsystems together into a cohesive system. This video breaks down how full platform integration took shape and set the foundation for accelerated progress in the phases that followed.
