Siri Can Now Control Sex Saddles, Thanks to the New Motorbunny API

January 9, 2019

Sex tech gets more inclusive and customizable.

Developers of the Motorbunny [NSFW] Internet-connected sex saddle have just upped their erotic technology game in surprising new ways.

For the first time, users will be able to control the action via their iOS or Android app–and then through Apple’s personal voice assistant, Siri, or even Facebook!

New levels of interconnectivity

To get things rolling, users have to download Motorbunny LINK; a proprietary app (iOS or Android) that replaces their standard hardwired controller with a one that connects to the saddle via Bluetooth.

Once connected, users can then experiment with all kinds of pre-programmed vibratory playlists or even create their own.

Skilled developers, meanwhile, can also use Motorbunny’s Application Programming Interface (API) to connect the hardware to platforms like Chaturbate NSFW and even Siri: the latter allowing the sex saddle to be controlled with voice commands.

Not only that, but Motorbunny even says that is possible to control the saddle with text messages or even through Facebook’s instant messaging system. To do this, users create a private link through the app and then share it with whoever they want to have control of the saddle.

Sexually creative experiences

“Releasing the LINK API is our way of saying ‘hop on’ in a new way,” Motorbunny CMO, Craig Mewbourne, said in a press release.

We’re dedicated to enabling sexually creative experiences, and what better way to accomplish that than give our users and developers the freedom and tools to make those experiences their own?

Control the action via Siri

Integrating with the Siri voice assistant will also make the sex saddle more accessible to people with disabilities.

“Adding voice commands to the Motorbunny LINK experience is something we’ve envisioned since we launched. It is a major game-changer for those with sensory losses or other disabilities,” added Motorbunny executive Brooks Butler.

We’re happy to take the lead in the industry on connective innovation by being the first to integrate hands-free commands.

Currently, the Motorbunny with the Motorbubby LINK, which includes all the hardware as well as software needed for connectivity and pleasure, is selling for $999.

Motorbunny also sports some great flexibility on the physical side of things, offering a wide array of attachments including sexual appliances, different colors for the Motorbunny unit, and even bondage gear designed with the riding vibrator in mind.

M. Christian

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
