Pocket says it has sold 300,000 wearable conversation recorders

Pocket says it has sold 300,000 devices. The company first released a meeting note-taking app, but reported that people used its hardware 10 times more often. It then developed a wearable for phones that is not always on, aiming to make recording conversations faster and less awkward than using a phone.

The device costs $129 and includes a freemium subscription with unlimited summaries, unlimited transcripts and three daily questions about conversations. A Pro plan costs $20 per month or $200 per year and adds speaker features, advanced AI models and access to more than 300 professionally sourced templates.

Pocket says its users include field workers, consultants, salespeople and real-estate agents. DoorDash uses the device for salespeople to record pitches and share them in a knowledge base, while recordings and transcripts can be connected to Claude, MCP or OpenAI’s API.
