Rent a Unitree G1 in Israel.
By the day, by the week, even for months.
Tagbox operates a Unitree Robotics G1 EDU U2 in Israel with a software layer we built ourselves. It is available for research and development, production work, live demos and events — with nothing to purchase and nothing to maintain.
We rent it out.
Not only for a single event day. The robot goes out for one day, for a run of working days, for a full week and for periods of months — for research, development and data collection just as much as for productions and events. The longer the term, the lower the daily rate.
Single day
One event, one shoot day, a conference or a one-off demo. Delivery, setup, operation and strike all inside the same day.
A run of working days
A production that spans several days, a demo tour or a trade show. The unit stays on site instead of coming back to us each night.
A week and up
A research block, a development sprint or a data-collection run. The unit is yours continuously, with technical support throughout.
Long term
An ongoing academic or industrial project. A long-term rental contract instead of a tens-of-thousands-of-dollars hardware purchase.
What every rental includes.
We do not hand over a crate and wish you luck. The robot arrives working, calibrated and accompanied — for one day as much as for a month.
- A professional operator from our team — or training and certification for your own people on longer rentals
- Transport, setup and a systems check on site
- Spare batteries and a charger — a full working day with no dead time
- Technical support available for the whole rental period
- Insurance and warranty on the equipment
What is the G1 EDU U2?
The G1 is a bipedal humanoid robot from Unitree Robotics — a platform about 1.32 m tall and 35 kg, with dynamic balance, a depth camera and 3D LiDAR. It is one of the most accessible and widely used humanoid robotics platforms in the world for research and development.
Our unit is an EDU U2 — the research and development tier, not the base model. It is stronger (120 N·m knee torque instead of 90, up to 3 kg arm payload), open for both high- and low-level development, and carries an additional 100 TOPS compute unit on top of the base 40 TOPS.
On top of all that we built our own software layer: real-time Hebrew voice conversation, LLM integration, motion-sequence management and per-project customisation.
Unitree G1 platform capabilities
These clips are the platform's own test and training footage — they show the range of motion, the balance and the control you are working with on a real project.
Grip & precision
Two hands, fine force control
Grip & precision
The robot grips, lifts and passes objects with both hands under force control — suitable for light, delicate items, not only coarse lifting.
Our unit, on the ground.
The clips in the previous chapter are the manufacturer's test footage. These three are the unit we actually rent, working in Israel — evening, daylight, outdoors and in front of a crowd.
Among the guests
The robot moves on its own between people, tables and chairs — no marked path, no roped-off crowd.
Outdoors, on paving stone
Uneven ground, full daylight and wind — real site conditions, not a hall floor.
In front of a crowd
Dozens of people around, children within arm's reach — safe operation with no physical barrier.
The spec of our unit.
These are the figures for the model we actually rent — a Unitree G1 EDU U2 — not the base model. The software layer above them — voice, language and motion sequences — is Tagbox's own work.

Hands to rent, too.
Inspire Robots RH56E2 — an industrial-grade five-finger robotic hand. Rented as a pair with the robot, or on its own as an end effector for a system you already have.
The G1 EDU U2 ships in its base configuration without dexterous hands. For work that needs real grasping, we rent a pair of Inspire Robots RH56E2 hands: five fingers, six degrees of freedom each, tactile sensors in the fingertips and force control at 0.05 N resolution.
Rent them with the robot, or on their own as an end effector for a system you already have. The interface is standard (RS485 / CAN / Modbus TCP), so they also mount on a non-Unitree robotic arm.

What do you do with it?
Most people looking for access to a humanoid robot in Israel do not need to buy one — they need a working unit, an operator who knows it, and software fitted to the purpose. That is exactly what we provide.
Research & development
Rent by the week or by the month for labs, universities and companies: experiments, data collection, policy training and algorithm testing — without spending tens of thousands of dollars on hardware.
Development & integration
The EDU U2 is open for both high- and low-level development, with 140 TOPS available. We supply the unit, the SDK and the technical support — the code is yours.
Film & commercial production
A real humanoid robot on set, for a single shoot day or a full production week. It comes with a professional operator who works the motion against the director.
Events, conferences & expos
A live demonstration at a conference, a trade show or an innovation centre — for one day or for the whole run, with the content fitted to the host's context.
Common questions.
Can I rent a Unitree G1 in Israel without buying one?
Yes. Tagbox rents an operational Unitree G1 EDU U2 in Israel — for R&D, film production, live demos, conferences and events. There is nothing to purchase or maintain, and no special infrastructure is needed on site.
How long can I rent the robot for?
From a single day to a long-term engagement. We rent by the event or shoot day, for a run of consecutive working days, by the week, and for months at a time — a research block or an ongoing development project, for example. The term is set per project, and the daily rate drops as the term gets longer.
Which model exactly do you rent?
A Unitree G1 EDU U2 — the research and development tier of the platform, not the base model. It carries an upgraded 120 N·m knee torque, up to 3 kg arm payload, full support for both high- and low-level development, and an additional 100 TOPS compute unit on top of the base 40 TOPS.
Can I rent dexterous hands as well?
Yes. We rent a pair of Inspire Robots RH56E2 hands — five fingers, six degrees of freedom and 12 joints per hand, load capacity equivalent to 15 kg, and tactile sensors in the fingertips. Rent them with the robot or on their own as an end effector for an existing system; the interface is standard (RS485, CAN, Modbus TCP).
Is this suitable for academic research and development?
Very much so, and it is a core part of what we do. Labs, universities and technology companies rent the unit for weeks or months for data collection, motion-policy training, manipulation experiments and algorithm testing — instead of committing tens of thousands of dollars to hardware that will date.
What software customisation is possible on the platform?
We have built a dedicated software layer on top of the platform: real-time Hebrew voice conversation, LLM integration, custom motion sequences and integration with a client's own systems. The scope of customisation is set per project.
How long does the robot run continuously?
One battery lasts about two hours. The battery is quick-release, and every rental includes spare batteries and a charger — so a full working day runs with no charging downtime.
What is included in a rental?
Transport, setup and a systems check on site, spare batteries and a charger, technical support throughout the period, and insurance and warranty on the equipment. An event or shoot day comes with a professional operator from our team; on longer R&D rentals we can instead train and certify your own people to work with the unit.
Do you rent outside Israel?
The unit is based in Israel and most work happens here. For a project abroad, contact us with the dates and location and we will tell you whether it is workable — transport, customs and an operator all have to line up.
How do we start?
Send us a message on WhatsApp or by email with a short description of the project and the rental period you have in mind. After a brief scoping call we will come back with a written proposal sized to the work.
