Linki is an autonomous charging bot system designed to deliver power to each parking spot so that every spot becomes a charging spot. There’s no more circling for an available charger or waiting to move your car once it's charged. You can simply park anywhere, enjoy your day, and let us handle the rest.

Using the Linki app, you can call a bot to your car, monitor the charging process, and receive alerts when your car finishes charging. Linki bots are equipped with efficient navigation systems to safely move through parking lots. For Linki station owners, we provide an opportunity to enhance customer satisfaction, increase their dwell time, and attract a growing demographic of EV owners.

As nations worldwide commit to transforming their transportation sectors, the dynamics within the automotive market are consequently evolving to accommodate an increasing demand for electric vehicles. This includes not only increasing the number of charging stations but also improving their management systems to ensure that they are available to those who need them when they need them. Linki is more than just a charging service; it's an enhancement to your everyday convenience. Our goal is to change the way you charge. We can make every trip smoother, and make every stop a chance to recharge.
