SWITCHBOT Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo), an IoT and smart home business operator and "No. 1 IoT device brand (according to Kaden Biz, November 2022)," has begun offering a new service, "AI Agent Plan," for the "SwitchBot AI Hub" with the SwitchBot App V9.26 update. The AI Agent Plan is a service that allows users to utilize a high-performance LLM up to 8,000 times a month when using OpenClaw on the AI Hub. This reduces the hassle of individually preparing API keys for external AI services, making it easier to start an AI agent-driven smart home experience.
Furthermore, the AI Hub now supports one-click setup for OpenClaw. With SwitchBot Skills / Channel pre-configured, users can smoothly begin their AI smart home experience, including device operation and status acquisition, without complex preparations. Based on the concept of "A home that understands and thinks with AI intelligence," the AI Hub evolves the smart home from merely a remote-controlled object to a system that understands user intentions and supports judgment, suggestions, and execution based on the situation.
*To use this feature, an update to SwitchBot App V9.26 or higher is required.
