iFixit has launched a new AI repair assistant known as FixBot. The company says Fixbot will make it faster and easier than ever before to figure out what’s wrong and how to fix it.
There are both free and paid options, although the feature list suggests that the free option is very limited. The subscription tier is free for a limited time …
iFixit is of course well-known for its teardowns of new devices, as well as providing both tools and instructions for carrying out a very wide range of DIY repairs. The company says that it supports more than 72,000 products ranging from iPhones to motorcycles, and that it has helped its customers make more than 100 million successful repairs.
FixBot is intended to help you carry out repairs in record time.
Figure out what’s wrong, and how to fix it, in record time. Hands-free guidance, visual analysis, and instant access to the world’s repair knowledge.
Speak or write the problem, and FixBot will take it from there. Get instant guidance with visual schematics, professional guides, and expert troubleshooting tips.
Our experts have spent 20+ years building the internet’s largest collection of repair solutions. FixBot harnesses AI to help you navigate those resources fast, with the same level of quality you’ve come to expect from iFixit.
You’ll need the paid tier to access step-by-step voice guides alongside both visual and voice diagnostics. Pricing hasn’t yet been announced, but you can use it for free at present.
With this, you are able to explain the problem you are experiencing, take photos, and then ask FixBot to diagnose the cause and talk you through how to fix it.
You can download the FixBot iPhone app here.
