Close call. T8 and MD-900 trade wins across the matrix.
Readiness, uptime, navigation & connectivity
Price accessibility and ROI clarity
Payload, speed, runtime & labor replacement
Environment fit, footprint & long-term upside
Narrow-aisle restaurants and cafes with tight kitchen-to-table distances
High-volume pallet transport in automotive assembly lines (sub-10 m² footprint, <2 m/s speed constraint)
If immediate deployment is the priority, choose MD-900. If the goal is to be ready when T8's capabilities mature, track it.
