IFA 2025 Preview: Samsung’s Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra Brings Home Monitoring to Robot Vacuums

Samsung has officially introduced the Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra, its first “Ultra” robot vacuum cleaner. Scheduled for a full showcase at IFA 2025 in Berlin, this flagship robot vacuum combines premium floor cleaning with built-in home monitoring features. Samsung is positioning this model as more than just a household cleaning device. It blends strong cleaning performance, AI-powered navigation, and advanced security, making it a smart home companion.

Advanced Robot Vacuum and Mop Features

The Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra builds on Samsung’s popular Jet Bot lineup and combines several features:

  • Vacuuming and mopping in one device
  • Steam sanitization for mop pads, reducing bacteria buildup
  • AI Object Recognition for smarter, more personalized cleaning paths

Security and Privacy with Samsung Knox

The Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra places a strong emphasis on data security. According to Samsung’s announcement, it leverages Samsung Knox, Knox Vault, and Knox Matrix Trust Chain to protect personal information and connected devices.

  • Knox Vault stores sensitive data, like passwords, on a separate hardware chip.
  • Real-time monitoring ensures device integrity across connected Samsung appliances.
  • Malware detection and access prevention help keep smart homes secure.

This security focus earned the robot vacuum a “Diamond” IoT Security Rating from UL Solutions, the highest level in its five-tier certification program. To achieve Diamond, a device must anonymize data, prevent unauthorized access, and actively block malicious software.

Market Position and Smart Home Integration

The Samsung Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra is not only the first Ultra robot vacuum in the company’s lineup but also the third Samsung home appliance in 2025 to receive Diamond-level IoT verification. This launch underscores Samsung’s strategy of combining premium home cleaning technology with robust smart home security.

Launch at IFA 2025

The Bespoke AI Jet Bot Steam Ultra will be officially unveiled at IFA 2025 in early September. As one of the most anticipated announcements in the robot vacuum category, it is expected to generate strong interest for its mix of cleaning performance, AI features, and cutting-edge data security.
