PETKIT has announced the pre-launch of its Purobot Crystal Duo, the first open-top, AI-powered automatic litter box designed to provide real-time feline health insights. The device combines a cat-friendly design with intelligent monitoring features to offer hygiene, comfort, and preventative health tracking in one system.
A discreet AI-powered camera tracks a cat’s behavior inside the litter box 24/7, logging subtle signals—such as loose stool, frequent visits, or excessive vocalization—and sending instant alerts via the PETKIT app. When used with PETKIT’s pH-activated crystal litter, the system can also detect urine pH imbalances associated with urinary tract infections or bladder stones.
Unlike enclosed models that many cats avoid, the Crystal Duo features an open-top design developed alongside veterinarians and feline behaviorists to align with natural feline preferences. Dual waste bins support up to 30 days of hands-free operation, and hygienic disposable trays ensure simple cleanup. A built-in N60 odor eliminator maintains freshness, while free, fast Wi-Fi connectivity keeps the system online at all times.
Chief product designer J.C. Zhang said the Crystal Duo was “never meant to be a gadget. It’s a health-first product designed to fit naturally into daily life and bring peace of mind to both pets and their people.” PETKIT’s engineering team added that the system empowers owners to detect early signs of discomfort before cats can show obvious symptoms.
The Crystal Duo extends PETKIT’s growing ecosystem of AI-powered pet health products, which includes smart feeders, water fountains, and other litter solutions. Future plans call for synchronizing insights across feeding, hydration, and waste management to deliver a comprehensive 360-degree view of a pet’s wellbeing through a unified platform.
Founder W.K. Guo emphasized PETKIT’s mission to make preventative care accessible: “Every cat deserves better. With Purobot Crystal Duo, we’re bringing that vision to life for every home.” The new litter box is designed to be affordable and easy to integrate, aiming to set a new standard for connected pet care.
