The Promobot V4 is the fourth-generation autonomous service robot from Promobot (Perm, Russia). Unlike the company's realistic Robo-C android, the V4 is a wheeled mobile service robot — a humanoid-styled robot with a screen "face," expressive features, arms for gesturing, and a wheeled base for autonomous movement. It is Promobot's flagship commercial service robot, designed to work in public spaces as a greeter, guide, administrator, and promoter. Promobot reports that 700+ V4 units have been delivered to 43 countries.
Price Range
The Promobot V4 is a genuine commercial product, sold internationally for customer-facing service roles. Promobot sells it via direct/quote-based channels; pricing depends on configuration and the software/integration package.

Model Breakdown
The V4 is the fourth generation of Promobot's autonomous service robot line. It is distinct from the Robo-C android — the V4 prioritizes autonomous mobility and service functionality in public spaces, while Robo-C prioritizes realistic human appearance from a fixed position. Together they form Promobot's two-product approach to service robotics.
Buyer's Guide: What to Know
The V4 is a mobile service robot. Its strengths are autonomous navigation and customer interaction in busy public venues — malls, airports, banks, museums.
It is a proven, widely deployed product. With 700+ units in 43 countries, the V4 is one of the more commercially established service robots — a relatively low-risk choice for its category.
It integrates with business systems. The V4 can register visitors, accept payments, and tie into existing business software — built for real operational use, not just demonstration.
It is humanoid-styled, not a full humanoid. Expect a wheeled, screen-faced service robot rather than a bipedal android.
V4 vs Similar Robots
- V4 vs Promobot Robo-C: Same maker — the V4 is the wheeled mobile service robot; Robo-C is the realistic stationary android.
- V4 vs SoftBank Pepper: Direct competitors — both are wheeled, screen-equipped humanoid-styled service robots for public-space interaction.
- V4 vs UBTECH Walker C / cruzr-type robots: All target reception, guidance, and customer-service roles in public venues.
