What they make
Boston Dynamics built the reputation of legged robotics. Spot is now a working inspection platform in energy and construction, Stretch handles container unloading, and Atlas remains the research showcase.
What a buyer should know
Spot is a mature product with real deployments, not a demo — but it is priced accordingly, and the payload and software you add usually cost more than the robot. The honest comparison for an inspection use case is against a fixed camera network or a wheeled platform; legs earn their cost only where stairs, ladders or rough ground genuinely block the alternatives.
