Soft Tissue Robotics Comparison Sheet V6 Autumn 2026

Okay this is a BIG update with a lot of systems now off the markjet and a lot of new systems just hitting the market. A lot of regulatory updates and new features. An update on system and procedure numbers. Plus more commentary... and in the accompanying PDF the images of each system.
READ CAREFULLY: The sheet consumes a lot of my time and effort to try and keep it up to date and as accurate as I can from public records. (There can be mistakes so let me know if you see any.) I've never known where to price this thing as it basically strips me of multiple consulting days that I can't bill. Yet I don't want it to fall into the $3K per report trap that I see out there. I've asked the community: and this is what has been suggested based on the value they feel they get. 499.00 Euros / giving you 1 month to download. And then that will give a discount of 20% for any future sheets. Current subscribers that have the old style subscription will be able to download for free as long as it's still within the 12 months of the last download. If your subscription has expired you'll get a 20% discount code - watch your mail. And if you didn't get it yet / tell me.
