Dock your phone into it, and suddenly you’ve got a little robot rolling around, dodging coffee mugs, and lighting up your workspace. It chats, reacts to what’s happening, and has a personality that feels less like tech and more like a curious desk buddy. Bonus: it’ll even charge your phone and send you call alerts, so it’s got your back while you work. 🤖👀
