iRobot Corporation is a Bedford, Massachusetts consumer robotics company best known for the Roomba robot vacuum and the Braava and Braava jet robot mop product lines. Founded in 1990 by MIT roboticists, iRobot pioneered the home cleaning robot category and has sold tens of millions of units worldwide. Its current portfolio includes the Roomba Max, Roomba Plus, and Roomba 100/200 series vacuums and combo (vacuum + mop) models, along with AutoWash and AutoEmpty docks, the iRobot Home App for scheduling and mapping, and a cleaning accessories and trade-in program. The proposed acquisition by Amazon was abandoned in January 2024 after regulatory pushback from the European Commission, after which iRobot underwent a major restructuring and layoffs. iRobot's revenue model is direct robot and accessory sales plus recurring consumables; it does not publish a public developer API, SDK, or OpenAPI specification, and its homesupport documentation explicitly notes that Wi-Fi connected Roombas do not have an open API. A community of unofficial reverse-engineered libraries (dorita980, rest980, pyirobot) exists but is not endorsed by iRobot.
