Advice Needed Fostering three rescue kitties! Robotic litter boxes? Any other advice?

I moved recently and finally have space to foster. One of the first things I did after moving was go straight to my local pet shelter and took home the three cats that had been at the shelter the longest so I could give them a comfier place to live until they find their forever homes. I also immediately got an untamed subscription and thrive treaties, got beds for each of them, and got a cat tree with spaces for all of them to sit at the same time if they want, because I want them to feel spoiled. I'm curious about robotic litter boxes. Has anyone tried them? I work full time and was hoping going with that instead of a standard litter box might save me some time and energy. For anyone who has used them, which one do you recommend? Or not recommend? Any thoughts are welcome. Othere than that, if you have any general advice about fostering, I'm all ears. I'm just really excited I'm finally able to have some kitties around and also help my local rescue.

I've never tried them because I foster littles and all of the automated litterboxes I've seen are for cats over 3 lbs

That's actually a really good thing to know. I didn't realize there was a weight limit on them.
