Hisense Brings AI Agents to Fridges, Washers and Dehumidifiers

Suwanee – October 12, 2026 -- Hisense will show a connected home lineup at CES 2026, running January 6 to 9, in which AI agents coordinate the fridge, range, dishwasher and laundry gear through its ConnectLife platform. The display sits in Central Hall, Booth 17704, at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

ConnectLife gets task-specific AI agents

The reworked ConnectLife platform adds agents that learn household habits and coordinate across devices. The AC adjusts to your presence and indoor air quality, a cooking agent suggests meals and wine pairings, and a laundry agent detects fabric types. Support also expands to more third-party products, including Google Home and Matter devices.

Hisense Unveils AI-Connected Kitchen and Laundry Suite at IFA 2026

Berlin – September 11, 2026 -- Hisense is showing off a new lineup of AI-connected home appliances at IFA 2026, letting visitors ask a fridge what to cook and have an oven, wine cabinet and dishwasher carry out the rest of the process automatically.

The AI Companion Suite links appliances from meal planning to cleanup

The system, powered by Hisense's ConnectLife platform, starts with the AI Companion Refrigerator, which scans stored ingredients and suggests recipes based on personal preferences. Once a dish is chosen, the AI Companion Oven can begin automatic cooking while the AI Companion Wine Cabinet suggests a pairing and keeps it at proper storage temperature. Afterward, the AI Companion Dishwasher checks how dirty the dishes are and adjusts its cleaning cycle accordingly.
