What you get
In month one, your subscription includes everything you need to build your first robot – mission one, a GoPiGo Core, and Raspberry Pi computer. Each month you’ll get a special box in the mail with a new robot sensor or actuator and access to a GoBox mission.
No contracts. No commitment. Just an easy way to learn about the power of coding and robotics.
- Get a GoPiGo Core and Raspberry Pi
- Get a new part and mission every month
- No contract or commitment
A gift that keeps giving
Give yourself or someone you love the gift that keeps you growing. Every month you’ll practice and build essential new skills in robotics and coding. GoBox missions also introduce engineering fundamentals and design thinking.
GoBox is an easy way to make STEM concepts more tangible. It connects concepts like averages to real-world applications. Then, you’ll learn how to use that knowledge to solve problems in the same way computer scientists, engineers, and designers do.
- Connect STEM subjects to the real world
- Learn engineering fundamentals
- Practice Computational and Design Thinking
A guided way to grow
GoBox is designed to introduce you to robotics and coding. It’s a great way to learn to code by controlling a robot you build yourself.
Every mission includes step-by-step instructions that ensure your progress. Story-driven challenges help you find creative solutions to problems inspired by today’s most advanced robots.
- Beginner friendly
- No coding experience required
- Designed to help you go far and get creative
Learn to build and code robots
With GoBox, you’re not just playing with a robot, you’re actually learning programming concepts. Knowing these fundamentals will help you learn any programming language.
Here are just a few of the concepts you’ll learn to use across the 12 GoBox missions:
- Program structure
- If / then statements
- Forever until control structures
- Variables
- Loops
- Nesting Loops
- Waits
- Sequencing
- State machines
- Inputs and outputs
- Broadcasting
- Conditional statements
- Iteration
- Random numbers
- Event handling
- Parallel execution
- Boolean logic
Not sure what some or any of this means? No problem – that’s exactly what GoBox designed to help you learn.

Push further with the power of Raspberry Pi
GoPiGo helps you build a powerful little robot with the Raspberry Pi computer. It’s perfect for exploring robotics, coding, and the frontiers of computer science.
- Build and program your own robot
- Great for all skill levels
- Powered by a real (little) computer
Multiple ways to code
GoPiGo supports multiple programming languages. Build a bridge from coding basics in Bloxter to cutting edge computer science skills with Python and Jupyter notebooks. It is designed to help you reach the next level, then go even further.
Customize and connect to projects of all types
With GoPiGo you can connect learning to code with real-world problem-solving. Then use the add-on sensors and actuators to customize GoPiGo to easily meet your needs.
From Mars rovers to self-driving cars there is a project or lesson for you to explore.
One of the best robotics kits you can buy, especially for teachers.
Simple start, no installation required
It’s easy to get started with GoPiGo, just connect to its wifi hotspot. Then use the built-in-tutorials inside GoPiGo OS to start learning the basics.
The power to go further
GoPiGo has the power of Raspberry Pi, interactive Python, and a suite of pre-installed libraries to help you explore cutting edge computer science activities.
From grade school to advanced Google tool
GoPiGo is great for helping you explore robotics, but it’s also perfect for seasoned professionals! Advanced users can connect to Google’s Cloud Vision API and other web-data – helping you explore new frontiers in computer science.
Connect and customize
GoPiGo has 5 connection ports* for attaching sensors or actuators, making it easy to invent the robots of your dreams. No soldering required.
*2x Digital/Analog, 2x I2C, 1x Serial. Plus, 2x servo motor ports.
