# SwitchBot Bot

*SwitchBot*

> A SwitchBot Bot works without a hub if Home Assistant controls it locally through a Bluetooth adapter. For remote control, voice assistants or Matter, you need a SwitchBot Hub. The Bot is a Bluetooth button pusher. It suits HomeKit users through an integration (a Matter bridge). Google Home and Alexa users reach it through an integration (the maker's cloud). Home Assistant users reach it through an integration (Bluetooth).
