speech-to-text

Meta is acquiring AI‑wearable startup Limitless, known for a pendant that records conversations and creates summaries. The deal, announced by Limitless CEO Dan Siroker, adds speech‑to‑text and on‑device summarization to Meta’s expanding hardware line, which already includes Ray‑Ban smart glasses. By integrating privacy‑focused AI processing, Meta aims to broaden wearables beyond glasses and headsets, reduce smartphone dependence, and open new revenue from subscription AI services and enterprise licensing. The acquisition positions Meta to compete in the growing AI‑enabled wearable market alongside rivals like Amazon and Google.
