Dashbot connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth and intelligently controls your music, maps, and messages with just your voice. Say “Dashbot, play James Brown” or "Dashbot, navigate home," and Dashbot’s AI will do the rest, playing sound through your car's stereo.

Dashbot uses a far-field beamforming microphone array and state-of-the-art digital signal processing. That's the fancy way of saying Dashbot hears you no matter how bumpy the road or how loud the music. No yelling necessary.

Using the best of today’s speech-to-text engines, you can send text messages confidently. No need to verify your message on a screen. Dashbot reads them back to you so you can confirm without looking at your phone.

Dashbot’s display is auto-dimming for use day and night and is made of low-glare red LEDs to protect your night vision. With visual cues designed to be understood with a quick glance, you can keep your eyes on the road, and your attention where it matters most.

Dashbot’s visual cues are simple: only what you need and nothing you don’t. With location search powered by Google Maps, just ask Dashbot how to get where you want to go—Dashbot will show you the way!

Dashbot has built-in support for your playlists, podcasts, and favorite streaming services. With a simple request, Dashbot’s AI will search multiple services to find what you want to hear.

When your bike is off, Dashbot will not draw (12VDC) power from it. (Though has backup LiFePO4 batt.)
