xLean TR1 has not yet been officially released to the market.As a startup team, we need to collect real-world feedback from users, media, and KOLs to refine the product.The Kickstarter campaign will run for about two months, helping us:

• Build our first global user community
• Secure mass production funding
• Deliver a high-quality product, not just a conceptual robot.

Thanks to the overwhelming interest from participants!Our marketing and R&D teams worked hard to increase the number of test units from 100 to 300.This means we are investing more in early production so that more users can experience the product before the final release

The testing units are pre-production test machines, and some functions are still under development.We expect to deliver the final production version between September and October.Collecting the test units allows us to:

• Inspect hardware wear and durability
• Improve the final product before mass delivery to backers

Testers will have approximately two months of usage.For example:

• If you receive the unit in July, we will contact you in September to arrange the return and collect your testing report.

Your feedback is critical for improving the final product.We truly appreciate the effort and passion of all testers. As a thank you, testers will receive benefits such as:

• Top priority shipping for the final production version
• Additional exclusive tester rewards
