Mini but Mighty, Big on Care
SHENZHEN, China, May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Enabot, a pioneer in family robotics, today announced the launch of the EBO Mini and EBO Mini Sport, two compact FamilyBots designed to help users stay connected with loved ones, care for pets, and interact with home environments in a more immersive and mobile way — delivering a "Mini but Mighty" experience that is truly "Big on Care."
Built for modern households, both models combine mobility, remote interaction, and smart home monitoring features in a compact and approachable design. Equipped with 2K camera, two-way audio, night vision, automatic obstacle avoidance, and auto-docking, the Mini series allows users to remotely check in on family members, pets, and home environments anytime, anywhere.
Unlike traditional stationary home cameras, the EBO Mini series is designed to move freely throughout the home. Users can remotely drive the robot, interact through live video, activate laser play for pets, and capture memorable everyday moments with greater flexibility and presence.
Designed for real-world family scenarios, the Mini series supports remote family interaction, pet monitoring, home awareness, and companionship for elderly family members. With mobile audio and video communication, smart mobility, and interactive movement features, the robots help users feel more connected even when physically apart.
The EBO Mini Sport introduces several upgraded features for a smoother and more intelligent experience, including a quieter brushless motor, dynamic eye lighting effects, and AI-powered human and pet recognition capabilities.
Designed for modern family life, the Mini series combines playful interaction, home awareness, and remote connection in a compact form factor. Despite their small size, EBO Mini and Mini Sport are designed to bring meaningful companionship and greater peace of mind into everyday life.
The EBO Mini and EBO Mini Sport are available for pre-order at launch prices of $169.99 ($30 OFF) and $209.99 ($40 OFF) respectively on the Enabot website. The EBO Mini pre-order offer runs through June 20, while the EBO Mini Sport offer is available through August 20.

Over the last 12 months, the platform's initial product enabling global stablecoin liquidity has scaled from $0 to $3B in total processing volume (TPV) with institutional clients including Rail, Braza Bank, and more
NEW YORK, May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Checker, a global network that enables financial institutions to plug into stablecoins and digital asset liquidity, cross-border payments, treasury, and credit via a single API, announced today that it has raised $8M in funding from Galaxy Ventures, Al Mada Ventures, and Framework Ventures. Additional participants include strategic financial institutions, such as Bitso and Airtm in Latin America, DFS Lab in Africa, and Onigiri Capital, SNZ Capital and Velocity in Asia. Additional investors include fintech operators from Stripe, Tala, Flutterwave, Mesh, ComplyAdvantage, Superstate, and more.
While stablecoins and tokenization promise faster, cheaper, and more reliable financial infrastructure, large-scale adoption will require solutions to liquidity fragmentation, operational complexity, and compliance hurdles. To access crypto and stablecoin markets, institutions are often stuck stitching together multiple providers as a makeshift solution, resulting in systems that are difficult to scale and maintain.
Enter Checker. Through the company's single API, financial institutions can launch and scale products spanning trading, payments, treasury, and credit across markets worldwide. The network delivers access to global liquidity, fiat on- and off-ramps, and payment rails, eliminating the need to integrate multiple providers.
"Checker's network has been instrumental to our business. Their plug-and-play infrastructure supercharges our trading and treasury plumbing," said Bhanu Kohli, former CEO and Cofounder of crossborder payments company Rail, which was recently acquired by Ripple.
"We have spent our careers dealing with the existing financial plumbing inside 24/7 global financial institutions. We've experienced how broken it is, and know how much better it can and should be" said Jack Chong, Cofounder of Checker. "This funding allows us to accelerate our mission to enable financial institutions from Brazil and Kenya, to Hong Kong and the United States, to transform how foreign exchange, payments, trading, and investment products are built. We are incredibly grateful for our customers and investors' trust."
Over the past year, Checker has onboarded institutional clients including Rail (acquired by Ripple), Braza Bank in Brazil, and Belo in Argentina, as it scaled to $3B in total processing volume, accounting for around 1% of annual global B2B stablecoin payments volume. Checker's stablecoin processing volume spans 30 customers, which are regulated financial institutions across the US, Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia. The Checker network now covers 75 global currencies, powering foreign exchange, collections, payouts, virtual accounts, and trading products worldwide.
"Financial institutions globally are converging on stablecoins as core infrastructure, but fragmentation across liquidity, rails, and compliance slows adoption," said Will Nuelle, General Partner at Galaxy Ventures. "Checker is building the connective tissue that brings market participants together into a unified platform."
"The friction points in fiat on-ramps and off-ramps remain the hardest problem to solve. Checker addresses this with a novel orchestration layer that organizes fragmented stablecoin liquidity into a programmable, compliant network," said Omar Laalej, General Partner at Al Mada Ventures. "With their customer bases growing rapidly across the emerging markets, especially Africa, we didn't hesitate to back this exceptionally lean, top-tier founding team."
With this funding, Checker plans to deepen its global payments coverage to replace traditional correspondent banking dependencies. The team also intends to build out embedded borrowing and lending capabilities that improve capital efficiency and reduce pre-funding requirements for its customers, fully utilizing the just-in-time settlement capabilities of stablecoins. Finally, the firm intends to launch AI-powered agents for treasury management, back-office operations, and predictive analytics, enabling financial institutions to hyperscale their operating efficiencies.
