Ohbot App review
A focused Windows toolkit for teaching robot coding, AI, speech, and vision.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Ohbot App is Windows software for programming Ohbot and Picoh educational robots. It is aimed at beginners, educators, makers, and students working on classroom robotics, creative projects, and AI experimentation. Learners can program simulated or physical robots through block-based coding or Python, making the product suitable for mixed experience levels. Its education materials include curriculum-linked lessons and resources for teaching coding with Ohbot robots.
The feature set is broader than basic robot programming. Ohbot App combines robot simulation with AI and GPT blocks, web voices, speech recognition, speech synthesis, motor coordination, image analysis, and computer-vision features. OpenAI GPT is listed as an integration, while the published capabilities also cover AI experimentation through blocks and Python. This combination gives educators several ways to connect coding with expressive robot behavior, conversation, speech, and visual input. The focus remains specialized: programming Ohbot and Picoh rather than supporting a broad range of robot platforms.
Pricing is structured for individual users and schools. The monthly Single licence costs £9.99 per month and includes the block coding environment, AI blocks, web voices, Python coding, and GPT usage subject to stated limits. An annual Single licence costs £74.99 as a one-time payment for one year and includes the core coding and AI features. The Small School site licence costs £164.99 as a one-time annual payment and permits installation on all computers at a school site for schools with 1–500 pupils. Ohbot App suits Windows-based teaching environments that need AI-enabled robot programming; buyers needing another operating system, a free plan, or robots beyond Ohbot and Picoh should consider alternatives.
