What ROBY Will Do, Per the Filing
Per the registration filings, ROBY will put at least 80% of its assets into robotics and automation companies (and ETFs of them), plus options contracts on those holdings — the options being where the income comes from. A "RoboTech & Automation Company" is defined precisely: a company earning half or more of its revenue from hardware and components (semiconductors, sensors, actuators, precision instruments), systems and integration (factory automation, autonomous mobility, warehouse and logistics robotics), or software and control (robotics operating systems, computer vision, AI perception tools).
Structurally that makes ROBY a portfolio option income fund — a themed basket with premium selling on top, not a bet on one robot company. The 80% policy can be changed by the trust with 60 days' notice, which is standard fine print worth knowing about any thematic fund.
A scoop from the same filing: ROBY isn't traveling alone. The document also registers YieldMax funds for WarTech & Cyber Defense and Strategic Metals & Mining — a whole thematic income wave sitting on the runway at once.
What Nobody Can Know Yet
A registration filing is a plan, not a product. Until ROBY trades, there is no payment history, no real yield, and no evidence of how its strategy behaves in live markets — any number you hear before launch is a target or a guess. Filings also get delayed, renamed, or quietly abandoned; this page's status updates daily either way. When ROBY does launch, we chart every payment from its very first one, free.

Frequently Asked Questions
When does ROBY launch?
No date has been announced. The registration was first seen in SEC records dated Dec 11, 2025; issuers typically launch within months of filing, but filings can also stall. The status box above updates daily, and the launch tracker shows everything else on the runway.
What will ROBY pay?
Unknowable until it trades — there is no payment history and the filing promises no rate. The strategy is option-income, so distributions would depend on real option premiums once live.
What counts as a robotics company for ROBY?
The filing's own definition: 50% or more of revenue from robotics hardware and components, automation systems and integration, or robotics software and control — so it spans chipmakers and sensor firms through factory-automation integrators to computer-vision software.
