A robot rental platform was unveiled at China's National Robot Rental Ecosystem Summit held in Shanghai this week. The platform is designed to make renting robots as convenient as renting a car. Renting a robot has been made so much easier in China with the opening of new online platform called BOTSHARE. The platform is designed to make renting robots as easy as renting a car - all you need to do is scroll. With its platform-based operating model, robot rentals are expected to scale rapidly, with the market projected to reach at least 10 billion yuan by next year. The company's CEO Mr Li said: "I believe the robot rental market has so much potential. Robots are still high-priced products that are beyond the reach of most people. Rental services serve as a bridge, allowing the public to experience robots at their best." Mr Jiang, Partner at AgiBot and Chairman of BOTSHARE said that as customer base grows, rental providers can operate at much lower costs while continuing to innovate their services. This creates a flywheel effect that quickly engages all stakeholders and expands the overall market. Mr Hu, founder and CEO and CTO of AheadForm said that the industry is still in its early stages, with many business models under exploration. Embracing new approaches is essential. This is about resource sharing, allowing companies to avoid duplicating the same foundational work.
