WhalesBot Link is a companion app for AI robots developed by Shanghai Whale Robot Co., Ltd. It lets you connect and manage multiple Whale AI robots in one place. After adding devices, you can check the connection status of each robot and view interaction reports for every device.

You can also manage your bound devices and maintain your account information. We will keep adding new features based on the capabilities of each robot model.
