"There's no way to recharge the ring. Migicovsky says he didn't want yet another gadget to charge every day, so instead, the Pebble Index has non-rechargeable silver oxide hearing aid batteries designed to last 2 years with average use. Once the device's battery is nearly dead, users will receive a notification in the app, and the idea is you'll buy a new Pebble Index-an idea that's easier to get behind knowing the ring costs just $75."
"When your audio is sent to your phone, an open source speech-to-text AI model processes it locally to convert your voice notes to text. Then, an on-device large language model will categorize the audio, deciding whether it's a reminder, a timer, or a general note. None of this data is ever sent to the cloud; it all stays on your phone."
The Pebble Index uses non-rechargeable silver oxide hearing aid batteries expected to last two years with average use, with an app notification when the battery is low and a recycling option for returned units. The ring is priced at $75 initially and will increase to $99 after the first batch. Voice audio is sent to the phone where an open-source speech-to-text model converts it locally and an on-device large language model categorizes entries as reminders, timers, or notes. All data remains on the phone rather than being uploaded to the cloud. The Pebble app handles logs by default and supports integrations and customizable button actions.
