India’s first sovereign AI wearable

Remembers everything.
Tells no one.

Unlike the original, this Narad keeps your secrets. A steel pendant that turns your day into summaries, to-dos and reminders — with every word heard, understood and stored on your own devices.

The story

The story of Narad

In the Puranas, Narad Muni wanders the three worlds with his veena, the Mahati, humming Narayana’s name. He hears everything — every vow, every quarrel, every whispered plan. And, famously, he passes it on. More than one epic turns on a word Narad let slip.


We kept the listening.
We dropped the gossip.

Our Narad hears your standups, your chai breaks, your calls home — and carries every word to exactly one place: the phone in your pocket. No court of the gods. No server farm. No one.

  1. 01

    Hears everything

    Three beamforming microphones pick out voices across a table, in Hindi, English and eight more Indian languages — and all the Hinglish in between.

  2. 02

    Remembers it for you

    Summaries, to-dos, reminders and the promises you made — sorted by person, searchable by meaning.

  3. 03

    Tells no one

    Speech recognition, speaker separation and the language model all run on your devices. We never receive a word.

A day with narad.si

You live your day.
It keeps the minutes.

No buttons to press, no app to open. Talk the way you always do — across languages, across rooms — and find the useful parts waiting for you, already sorted.

Sovereignty architecture

The whole mind fits
inside your pocket.

Most AI wearables are microphones for someone else’s data centre. narad.si runs the entire stack — listening, transcribing, telling voices apart, summarising, remembering — on the pendant and the phone you already own.

Audio sent to narad.si
0 seconds
Transcripts on our servers
None, ever
Works in a basement, on a flight
Fully

What leaves your phone? Nothing — unless you tap send.

Read the full architecture & threat model
Diagram: the pendant streams encrypted audio over Bluetooth to your phone. Inside the boundary of your own devices, five stages run: voice isolation, speech recognition, diarisation, an on-device language model and an encrypted memory. narad.si servers receive nothing. Optional backups are end-to-end encrypted to your own cloud with a key only you hold. Actions like sending a WhatsApp message or placing an order go out only when you tap.

Why on-device matters

Your memory shouldn’t be acquirable.

When your conversations live on a company’s servers, they are an asset on that company’s balance sheet. Assets get bought, merged, moved to new terms, switched off by region. In the space of a single year, three of the best-known AI wearables changed hands or went dark.

narad.si is built so there is nothing to hand over. Your memories sit on your phone, encrypted with keys held in its secure hardware. If we were ever bought, the buyer would get our code, our team and our goodwill — never your life.

    Humane AI Pin

    HP buys Humane’s assets for $116 million. On 28 February the Pin loses every cloud feature, and stored user data is deleted.

    Amazon agrees to buy the wristband that summarised your conversations. It is folded into Amazon’s devices business, along with its users’ accounts.

  3. Dec 2025

    Limitless Pendant

    Meta acquires Limitless. Pendant sales stop. By 19 December service is withdrawn in the EU, UK and several other countries; remaining owners must accept new terms or export and delete.

  4. Any day

    narad.si

    There is no server with your conversations on it — so there’s nothing to sell, subpoena in bulk, leak or switch off.

Speaks the way India talks.

Privacy for the people around you

Courtesy, built into the hardware.

A wearable that listens has to earn the trust of everyone in the room, not just its owner. So the most important privacy features on narad.si aren’t settings — they’re physical.

  • A light everyone can see

    The saffron LIVE ring glows whenever the microphones are on. There is no setting to hide it — the people around you deserve to know.

  • A mute you can feel

    Press and hold the face. The microphones are disconnected in hardware, the ring goes dark and a short haptic confirms it. Software can’t override it.

  • Quiet places, quietly

    Pauses itself at hospitals, courts and places of worship, during calendar events you mark private, or anywhere you choose. Locations are checked on your phone.

  • Forget the last ten minutes

    One tap in the app, or a triple-press on the pendant, and the recent past is erased from your phone — permanently, not archived.

  • “Please don’t remember me”

    Anyone can ask. Add their voice to your never-remember list and narad.si drops what they say before it is ever written down.

  • Nothing to leak, by design

    When you tell someone “it stays on my phone,” it’s literally true. There is no server copy for anyone to request, sell or lose.

The pendant Design targets

Jewellery first.
Computer second.

The narad.si pendant: a matte steel disc with an engraved veena mark.
  1. 01 Form

    A pebble, not a gadget.

    34 mm across, 10.8 mm at its thickest, about 19 grams. Domed on both faces so it sits flat against you and turns no heads — until someone asks where you got it.

  2. 02 Material

    316L, bead-blasted.

    The stainless steel of surgical instruments and good watches, blasted with fine glass beads to a soft, even matte. Hypoallergenic, it shrugs off sweat, monsoon rain and years of wear.

  3. 03 Signal

    The LIVE ring.

    A sapphire-glass window runs around the rim. When the microphones are on it glows saffron, slowly, like breath — visible from every side, to everyone.

  4. 04 Inside

    Three mics. One small brain.

    A beamforming array listens toward voices; an on-pendant NPU handles wake, voice activity and isolation, so only speech travels — encrypted — to your phone. A magnetic puck charges it from the back.
