UR15 collaborative arm in its May 2025 launch image
May 2025 announcement scheduled shipping for June; no retail price asserted. Launch image: Universal Robots. Published 2025-05-12. Source

I've got the UR15 launch saved as a reference, but I'm not using its speed claim to judge a different arm doing a different task. For a Fairino-versus-UR enquiry I'd send both suppliers the same part, gripper allowance, layout and acceptance criteria. What would you keep on page one so a cheaper arm doesn't quietly become a more expensive project? No exact Fairino model chosen yet.

Delivered scope and the exclusions. Same currency and date too, or the totals aren't comparable.

Recovery and changeover. A fast demo on one part won't tell you what the operator does with the next job.

I'd put who supports it locally on that first page. I used to put that at the bottom, as though it was optional.

Good additions. I'll make the headline comparison task cost and support, with arm price shown separately.
