Unitree G1
The guest your room will film.
MONTARI is a Unitree G1 humanoid, built for the floor of an event. It walks among your guests, shakes hands, poses, dances and says the lines you wrote together. Our operator is with it the whole time, so you get the spectacle and none of the risk.
From €2,000 per day with an operator Multi-day rate, excluding VAT. Single days quoted on request.

The first cards are ours: the machine in the workshop, on test and in front of people. The rest are Unitree's own pictures of the platform we hire out.

Your brand, on the robot.
The plate on its chest and the board on its back are yours. Turn the robot to see both. We print your artwork and fit it before the doors open, so the robot walks in already wearing your campaign.
What MONTARI does on the night.
Makes the entrance
It walks in on cue, ahead of the speech or behind the curtain. The room turns, the phones come up and your evening has a first image.
Works the crowd
The robot moves through the room instead of standing in a corner. It waves, shakes hands, tilts its head and reacts to the people in front of it.
Delivers your lines
Opening words, the brand message, the winner's name. Written with you beforehand and spoken in English, French or both.
Poses for photographs
It holds a pose, stands still beside a guest and waits for the shot. Every picture leaves the venue with your logo on its chest.
Hands things over
A trophy, a key, a bottle, a small gift. The handover lands better from a robot than from a host with a clipboard.
Wears your brand
The wordmark on the chest is a printed decal we replace with your logo, so the robot becomes part of the campaign rather than a rented prop.
When MONTARI is the right robot.
It is the one we send to nine bookings out of ten, because it is built to be seen and to be filmed.
- Brand activations and product launches where the point is content guests post themselves
- Galas and award dinners where the trophy should arrive in a pair of robot hands
- Corporate evenings and client parties that need a moment nobody expected
- Trade show and yacht show stands that have to pull people off the aisle
- Boutique openings on the Golden Square and in the Carré d'Or
- Any indoor venue with a flat, dry floor of roughly three by three metres to work in
See it move.
Six minutes with the Unitree G1, the platform behind MONTARI and NOVA. The walk, the balance and the reach are the same ones your guests will see.
Film by Mashable, on YouTube. It shows the G1 platform we hire out, not one of our own events.
Questions we get asked.
Anything we have not covered? Write to us and we answer within 24 hours.
How much does it cost to hire the MONTARI humanoid robot in Monaco?
From €2,000 per day with an operator, at the multi-day rate and excluding VAT. A single day, a bespoke script, travel outside Monaco and any staging are quoted on top. Send the date and the venue and you have a firm price within 24 hours.
Is a humanoid robot safe around guests?
Yes, because it is never left alone. Our operator drives the show, keeps a working distance between the robot and the crowd and stops it instantly if somebody steps too close. It walks at a calm pace, it does not lift heavy loads and it does not move through a room without someone watching it.
Can MONTARI speak to our guests in French?
It speaks English and French. Most Monaco events use both: a French opening and an English brand message, or lines alternating through the evening. You approve the script before the day, so nothing is improvised in front of your clients.
What does MONTARI need from the venue?
A flat, dry, firm surface and roughly three by three metres to work in, plus a socket nearby for charging. It does not perform in rain, on loose gravel or on stairs as a routine. We check the floor, the route and the lighting before doors open.
How long does the robot perform?
About two hours of active show on one battery, swapped on site by our operator. In practice we plan the evening in blocks of fifteen to thirty minutes, which keeps the robot fresh and keeps guests looking forward to the next appearance.
