Deducted from lease payments01 / The mission
Productive robots shouldn’t sit behind the balance sheets of a handful of companies. Our ambition is for a fund to own 10,000 Optimus robots and open that fleet to businesses and individuals through competitive leasing. The robots stay in the fund. Net lease income goes to the fund’s owners.
You bring the work. Bid for the capacity. Bid now for a block of at least three months from January 2028. January 2028 is a target; supply could delay deployment to 2029 or later. Allocation depends on available robots and validated tasks.
$30,000 is the proposed maximum robot purchase price, not a Tesla quote. The acquisition target excludes tax, shipping, insurance, integration and operating reserves.
THE ROAD FROM CAPITAL TO CAPACITY
Investment opening is targeted for January 15, 2027. Robot availability sets the pace after that. Explore how supply and price could change the route to the first working fleet.
SCENARIO 01 / THE TARGET PATH
Target opening through a Delaware company with an established US escrow account.
Readiness requiredCommit only with confirmed supply, approved rights and a purchase price at or below $30,000 per robot.
Supplier agreementAccept, test and insure delivered robots. Begin approved leases once each site is ready.
No delivery guaranteePay available net lease income quarterly, pro rata to eligible fund ownership.
Income dependentSubscription cash remains in US escrow until authorised release. A binding supplier commitment can restrict withdrawals before payment or delivery.
January 2028 is the target, subject to supply and validation. Lease income begins only when robots enter paid service; distributions depend on available net income.
A hard ceiling on the robot purchase price. If competing buyers push prices above it, the fund waits; it does not automatically increase its offer. At the cap, 10,000 robots cost $300m before tax, shipping, integration, insurance and reserves. Those costs need separate funding. This is our proposed policy, not a supplier quote.
2029 is a delay scenario, not a promised fallback date. There may be a partial rollout or a longer wait, and neither supply nor an acceptable price is guaranteed. Seven-day notice applies only to uncommitted escrow money. A final decision deadline, delay remedies for bidders and the start of the annual fund fee must be agreed before subscriptions or paid bids open. See the fund terms ↗
02 / High-value work
From the factory floor to the freight yard. Explore the work we would assess for commercial deployment, with a focus on repeatable tasks and measurable output.
Proposed applications, not confirmed Optimus capabilities. Every deployment would require technical, site and safety validation. Truck driving additionally depends on vehicle integration, licensing, insurance and regulatory approval. Explore Tesla’s robotics programme ↗
03 / The leasing marketplace
Choose a US worksite and a lease block from January 2028. Register, confirm your email and lodge a $100 non-refundable deposit to place a binding bid in the planned live market.
BID NOW FOR JANUARY 2028
Live bids are binding and require a $100 non-refundable deposit per bid. Register with an email address and confirm it using a one-time link. ID documents are not required at this stage.
US OPERATIONS ONLY
US citizens only. Robots must remain in the United States and may not be used for illegal or antisocial activity. The lessee must arrange robot damage and public liability insurance.
Maintenance is estimated at a flat $250 per robot per month, additional to lease payments and the annual fee.
10000robots retains 15% of every lease payment. The remaining 85% goes to the fund. Available net lease income is distributed quarterly to fund owners, pro rata to their eligible unit ownership, after fund administration, applicable fleet costs and reserves. The fund retains ownership of every robot. A separate annual lessee fee of $X USD is payable to 10000robots; its amount is to be confirmed.
04 / The capital behind the capacity
The first acquisition target is $300 million for 10,000 Tesla Optimus robots. Further fleet expansion would use separately approved funding rounds. Businesses and individuals bid to lease the fleet. They rent the capacity; the fund keeps the robots.
10000robots administers the marketplace, charges lessees an annual fee and retains 15% of all lease payments. The remaining 85% goes to the fund before fund administration, fleet costs and reserves. Available net lease income is distributed quarterly, pro rata to eligible unit ownership. Investors would hold units in the proposed 10000robots Fund I LLC, a Delaware entity subject to formation and final legal documents.

*Before fund administration, fleet costs and reserves. Available net income is distributed quarterly, pro rata to unit ownership.
PLANNED INVESTMENT OPENING
A US company formed in Delaware, with an established US escrow account in place before subscriptions open. The target date is subject to formation, offering and escrow readiness. Robot leasing is planned from January 2028.
Proposed investor terms. The 1% annual fund fee and 1% exit fee are separate from the 15% lease-payment fee and the annual lessee fee. Fee calculation bases and accrual dates must be set in the final documents. Distributions depend on available net income.
01 / Participation
Fund participation is restricted to US citizens. Under the proposed Rule 506(c) route, investors must also be verified accredited investors. Wealth or a professional job title alone does not establish eligibility. Entity-investor rules remain to be defined.
02 / Before acquisition
All investor subscription money will be held in an established US escrow account with an independent escrow agent until agreed release conditions are met. The account and signed terms must be in place before the January 15, 2027 target opening. Committed capital is then released for approved purchases and disclosed uses.
03 / Withdrawal notice
The proposed policy allows withdrawal requests on seven days’ notice while the relevant money remains uncommitted in escrow, subject to final escrow terms. It is not a promise of cash within seven days after a robot purchase commitment.
04 / After commitment
After the initial $300m commitment to Tesla, members may seek to offer units to eligible buyers through a proposed internal transfer marketplace. Buyer eligibility, transfer restrictions and approvals apply. A buyer, price or completion date is not guaranteed; the market is not live.
05 / Procurement mandate
Robots may be purchased only from Tesla, SpaceX, or a combined successor of those businesses, subject to verified supply and leasing rights. This policy does not imply a merger, affiliation or that SpaceX currently offers robots for sale.
06 / More demand
The $300m is an initial acquisition target. Additional investor demand can be considered for future fleet rounds, with disclosed capacity, pricing and use of funds. Extra money is not automatically accepted into the first allocation.
BUY EXISTING UNITS
Ownership changes hands. The fund’s robot fleet and total units stay the same. An approved transfer route and a willing eligible buyer are needed.
SUBSCRIBE FOR NEW UNITS
An approved new issue brings capital into the fund. Fair unit pricing and separate accounting protect existing owners. This is distinct from an investor selling their units.
Investors own fund units representing an economic interest in the fleet, not title to a particular robot. No investment, escrow deposit, redemption or unit trade can be made through this prototype. Final offering, transfer, valuation and liquidity arrangements require US securities counsel and appropriate service providers.
05 / Before the first shift
No. This is an independent concept, with no affiliation, endorsement or supply agreement with Tesla. Tesla and Optimus are their respective owners’ marks. The imagery is conceptual.
The intended market accepts bids now for lease blocks starting from January 2028. Live bids will require registration, one-time email verification and a $100 non-refundable deposit, and will be binding under the final bid terms. This version demonstrates the flow only: no email is sent, payment collected or binding bid submitted. It does not accept investments.
We aim to accept investments from January 15, 2027 through a US company formed in Delaware, with an established US escrow account in place before subscriptions open. This is a target, subject to formation, offering and escrow readiness. Robot leasing is planned from January 2028. This prototype does not accept investment funds.
The proposal sets a $30,000 maximum purchase price per robot: 10,000 × $30,000 = $300m. This is not a Tesla price quote. Final pricing, tax, shipping, integration, insurance and operating reserves would need separate assessment and funding.
The proposed model lets individuals and businesses bid per robot per month for blocks of at least three months. Allocation would consider bid price, fleet availability, task suitability and site readiness. Robots remain owned by the fund throughout. Final auction and contract rules are not set.
Yes. Each lessee pays a separate annual administration fee to 10000robots.com, in addition to their lease payments. The amount is shown as $X USD per year until it is set. A separate maintenance fee is estimated at $250 per robot per month. Lessees must insure the robot for damage and public liability. It is separate from the 15% fee deducted from lease payments, and is not included in the lease bid total. Longer leases may span more than one annual fee period.
10000robots retains 15% of each lease payment as its administration fee. The remaining 85% goes to the fund. Available net lease income is distributed quarterly to fund owners, pro rata to their eligible unit ownership, after the 1% annual fund administration fee, applicable fleet costs and reserves. For a $1,000 lease payment, the company receives $150 and the fund receives $850 before those costs. Quarterly record dates, payment dates and the treatment of ownership changes will be specified in the fund documents.
The proposed 10000robots Fund I LLC, a Delaware entity, would own all robots; investors would own units in that fund. 10000robots.com would operate the marketplace, arrange and administer leases, and collect payments on the fund’s behalf. The leasing market is limited to US citizens, and robots must remain in the US. For a business bid, this prototype requires a US business and an authorised representative who is a US citizen; final corporate eligibility rules must be settled before launch. Fund investors must be US citizens. A proposed US Rule 506(c) raise would also require verified accredited-investor status; final entity, agency and offering terms require legal review. SEC Rule 506(c) overview ↗
A written supply and leasing-rights agreement with an approved supplier (Tesla, SpaceX or a combined successor); an independent escrow arrangement; final fund and lease documents; a clear allocation of repairs, transport and insurance; task validation and site approvals; applicable tax collection; and an operating model that accounts for idle robots and reserves. Proposed fleet costs come from the fund’s 85% share before investor distributions. Robot delivery, utilisation and investment returns are not guaranteed.
No ID document is collected at this stage. You must register and confirm access to your email address using a one-time link. Email confirmation does not verify your legal identity or US citizenship. The live registration will require US-citizenship declarations; any later documentary checks are a separate process.
The planned live market requires a non-refundable $100 deposit per submitted bid. Bids are binding under the final bid terms. Lease payments, a separate annual administration fee, estimated maintenance of $250 per robot per month, insurance, applicable taxes and transport must all be accounted for. Treatment of deposits if allocation or delivery fails must be defined in the live terms before deposits are collected.
Lessees must arrange insurance covering damage to the robot and public liability. Coverage amounts, deductibles and evidence requirements will be specified before deployment. Robots must stay in the United States and cannot be involved in illegal or antisocial activity. Detailed prohibited-use definitions and enforcement procedures will be included in the live contract.
The proposed fund charges a flat 1% per annum administration fee and a 1% fee on exit. Their calculation bases and start dates must be specified before subscriptions open. These investor fees are separate from the 15% lease-payment administration fee and the annual lessee fee. Available net lease income is paid quarterly in proportion to eligible fund units, with ownership changes accounted for under the final allocation policy.
The seven-day notice proposal applies only to withdrawal requests for money still uncommitted in escrow, under the agreed escrow terms. Once capital is committed to robots, it is not freely withdrawable. The proposed route is a sale of units to an eligible buyer, subject to legal restrictions, approval and finding a buyer. There is no guaranteed seven-day payout or guaranteed resale market.
The first acquisition target is $300m. Additional capital would require an approved expansion round with its own amount, pricing, procurement plan and disclosures. Issuing new units raises money for the fund; reselling existing units pays the selling investor and does not expand the fund. The initial prototype does neither.
January 2028 is our deployment target, not a supply promise. Availability could move the rollout to 2029 or later. The proposed hard cap is $30,000 for each robot’s purchase price, excluding separately budgeted tax, transport, integration, insurance and reserves. If supplier prices exceed it, we wait rather than automatically bid more. Money already committed to a supplier is not freely withdrawable; uncommitted escrow money follows the agreed seven-day notice policy. Delay remedies, a final decision deadline and annual-fee accrual must be defined before live acceptance. Lease income starts only after paid deployment.
These are proposed applications to assess, not verified capabilities. Tesla describes a general-purpose humanoid robotics programme, but that does not establish readiness for a specific task. Truck driving would require substantial additional technical and regulatory validation. Read Tesla’s programme overview ↗
