The Tech Bot Prime is Tech Bot's Power Pro in Bloons TD 6, introduced in version 54.0. Like its regular counterpart, it can link to a tower to activate its abilities automatically, except it comes with greater range and can set an ambush without needing Ambush Tech.
Path 1 provides buffs to the towers whose abilities are being managed by the bot by increasing their damage, allowing it to activate the same ability from multiple towers at the same time and providing a damage buff to all attacks of the tower for a short period of time after its ability is activated.
Path 2 allows it to manage more towers with a single bot, by linking it to more towers or by affecting all towers in radius. Activations can be done automatically or by using the bot's own ability.
Path 3 gives the bot the capability of deploying mini-drones, reduces the ability cooldowns of the currently linked tower, and can even force an ability activation for all towers in range, even if they are still on cooldown.

Tech Bot Prime is more valuable than the cost of three Tech Bots if using for more than just automation of a single tower. It can also directly improve the strength of abilities if needed. Buy the upgrades after setting up a stable defense, as the added cost for utility or direct benefits is usually not worth making early-game harder.
For simply activating many abilities and nothing much else, use the following upgrades:
Second-path upgrades can automate multiple separate abilities. Placement is much more important; place it close to the tower(s) to be automated, rather than at a spare faraway location. After buying NEUR0.MAP, use the normal Tech Bot functions on up to three of the furthest away towers.
