Keep your watch party pool clean with the WYBOT S3

Here’s the part of hosting a watch party nobody puts on the invite. Hours before anyone shows up, you’re skimming leaves, scrubbing walls, and wondering how the floor got that bad when nobody’s even been in yet. And yet the pool is the centerpiece — the whole reason you’re hosting outside in the first place.

The WYBOT S3 is built to make that problem disappear entirely. It’s a cordless robotic pool cleaner, but calling it that undersells what it actually does. WYBOT claims it’s the world’s first pool robot to combine full 3D mapping, AI-guided cleaning, automatic self-docking, self-charging, and self-emptying in a single system, and on paper at least, nothing we’ve seen disputes that.

The smarts start on the first run. The S3 uses 36 onboard sensors to map your pool in three dimensions, then uses that map to plan an efficient cleaning route for every subsequent cycle, covering floors, walls, and up to the waterline. In AI Vision Mode, it goes further, actively detecting debris and adjusting its path on the fly for floor cleaning. You can watch it all happen in real time through the app, redirect it to specific areas if needed, or just leave it to do its thing.

When it’s done, it returns to the dock on its own and recharges via a dual solar and DC power system, transferring all collected debris into a shore-based 10-liter bin. No pulling a dripping robot out of the water by hand. The bin uses a dual-layer filtration system, with a 180μm filter and a 40 PPI sponge handling everything from leaves down to fine particulates. Under typical conditions, WYBOT says you only need to touch the thing roughly once a month.

That’s the whole pitch, and it’s a compelling one. Guests show up, the water’s spotless, and you didn’t think about it once. For anyone who hosts regularly and wants their outdoor space to actually reflect the effort they’ve put into it, the S3 makes a strong case for itself.

The WYBOT S3 is available now at a pre-sale price of $2,499.99, reduced from its regular retail price of $2,999.99.
