- Published price
- US$1,000–1,500 stated overseas range; not a UK delivered price

Privacy
Cameras, microphones and data
- Camera
- Camera specification not confirmed in the launch release
- Microphone
- Recording and microphone specifications need confirmation
Check the current privacy policy, account permissions and data-retention settings before installation. Product features and cloud services can change after a guide is published.
Failure modes
Questions to resolve before care use
- Does the person enjoy its responses, or find them intrusive?
- How is it cleaned between users?
- What stops working without a connection, and how can stored interaction data be deleted?
A response plan should cover the most serious of these before the device becomes part of everyday care.
Choosing between options
Where this fits
The production batch and European support arrangements make AnAn worth watching. For a UK purchase now, compare established robotic pets and arrange a trial or a suitable return policy.
Evidence grade D
Mainly manufacturer claims
Grade D: the European launch release supplies the current facts. We have not found independent care-outcome evidence for this model; results for PARO cannot be transferred to AnAn.
Status and specification checked against Mind With Heart Robotics’ European launch release, 3 September 2026 on 14 September 2026. An official product page confirms features, not necessarily outcomes.
