01 / Send your BOM
Send the BOM. We find the parts.
For robotics teams in the US. We review your BOM, source from vetted suppliers in Asia, inspect before it ships, clear customs, and land it at your door for one price, covered by our warranty. Leave the sourcing headache to us, so you can focus on building your robot.
Spreadsheet, drawings or links. Every line quoted in 24 h.
02 / Why RoboDepot
One partner, from BOM to bench.
BOM review
Your BOM, read adversarially
Before anything is quoted we go through every line looking for what a supplier could get wrong: missing tolerances, finishes, material grades, ambiguous part numbers, no approved alternates. You get the questions before parts are made, not after.
Suppliers
A vetted supplier network
We only quote from suppliers we have vetted for quality, capacity and on-time delivery, and match each line to one that makes that kind of part to spec.
QC
Inspected in Asia and the US
Our own QC teams in Asia and the US check parts against your drawing or datasheet before they ship. Off-spec parts are caught at the source, not on your bench.
Warranty
One channel, before and after
One contact from quote to delivery and after it. If a part arrives defective or off spec, we replace or refund it. No chasing five suppliers across three time zones.
03 / Sample quote
What a quote looks like.
Every line you sent, what we found, what it costs landed, and when it arrives. Lines we cannot price yet say why.
| Line | Description | Qty | Status | Lead time | Landed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| L-01 | NEMA 17 stepper, 1.8°, 0.4 N·m17HS4401 · 42 mm · 1.7 A | 4 | Quoted | 2 wk | $73.60 |
| L-02 | Aluminium bracket, 6061-T6, black anodisedPer drawing BRK-0032 rev B | 12 | Quoted | 3 wk | $214.80 |

Needs specmeans our BOM review found something a supplier could get wrong, and we need a drawing or a datasheet before we quote the line.
04 / How it works
Reviewed, sourced, inspected, delivered.
01
Upload the BOM
Upload the spreadsheet, drawings and datasheets with the quote form, or send links. Anything custom needs a drawing or a datasheet.
02
Reviewed, then quoted
We review the BOM for anything underspecified and send you questions first. Then every line is matched to a vetted supplier and priced landed. A line we cannot source says so instead of guessing.
03
Inspected before it ships
When parts are ready, our QC team checks them against your drawing or datasheet. Anything off spec is rejected before it ships.
04
Provenance per line
Supplier, lot and inspection record stay attached to each line in the app, so you can trace any part in the robot back to its source.
05
Delivered, and covered
We book the freight, file customs and pay the duties, with status per line in the app. After delivery, one contact for anything wrong: defective or off-spec parts are replaced or refunded.
05 / Pricing
One landed price. Three things move it.
Send the BOM as a spreadsheet, drawings or links, with where it is going and when you need it. We review it for gaps before we quote. You get a quote per line, landed, within 24 h, by email, with a lead time against your date.
- Line items
- The parts and quantities on your BOM. Custom lines need a drawing or a datasheet link.
- Sourcing
- Catalogue part or made to drawing, and how many suppliers can make it to spec.
- Freight and duties
- Origin, weight and destination set the freight and the duty rate. Both are inside the landed price.
Competition and university teams: choose that option on the form and the quote includes team rates.
