Omi is an innovative $89 wearable AI companion designed to boost productivity and simplify daily activities. Announced by Nik Shevchenko and produced by Based Hardware, this device can be worn as a necklace or attached to the head. Omi features an always-on microphone to listen to conversations, summarize them, provide action items, offer personalized feedback, and create to-do lists.

Omi leverages powerful models from OpenAI and Meta, using GPT-4o for personalized advice and information. It addresses privacy concerns by operating on an open-source platform, allowing for significant flexibility and security.
