This shortlist is the live catalog slice for the Robotics Software & AI category. Listings appear here only when their primary category matches. Full page-unique intros for remaining categories ship in a later polish pass.
How order works. Matched companies are the full live catalog slice for this primary category, sorted alphabetically by name. This is not a scored quality ranking. When listing fees open, they are intended to affect publish timing or review-queue position only, not alphabetical order or praise on this page (payments are currently closed). Operator house products are not catalog entries here; they appear only as a labeled footer bridge. See /transparency.
