Whisker Launches Litter-Robot 5 Line With AI Cameras and Subscription Health Tracking

Preorders open today starting at $599.

Overview

  • The three-model family spans the camera-equipped 5 Pro, a standard 5, and the compact Evo for one or two cats, priced at $899, $799, and $599 respectively, with shipments scheduled to start November 3.
  • The 5 Pro uses dual AI, night-vision cameras and facial recognition to identify individual pets and record 1080p video of litter activity.
  • New hardware across the 5-series includes WasteID that distinguishes urine from feces, larger redesigned waste drawers, and an on-device LCD for clearer status updates.
  • Whisker+ membership ($7.99 per month or $79.99 per year) unlocks trend and behavior analysis plus viewing and saving litter-box video, while core app controls remain free.
  • The $29 PetTag is a water-resistant RFID collar tag that aids multi-cat identification and provides a scannable LostPet contact feature when paired with compatible devices.
