Amazon launches two new AI devices under Bee brand

Amazon (AMZN) has introduced two new artificial intelligence devices under its Bee brand, expanding its range of personal AI products designed to summarize conversations, generate reminders, and identify action items.

The company said on Thursday that Bee Frontier, a wearable device, is available for $74.99, while Bee Eclipse, a magnetic phone attachment, will be available soon starting at $99.99.

Bee Frontier can be worn on the wrist or clipped to clothing. It features dual microphones, IP67 water resistance, and up to seven days of battery life. Bee Eclipse attaches to the back of a phone and offers more than 21 days of battery life on a single charge.

Both devices convert conversations into summaries, insights, and to-do lists. Users can access the information through Bee's mobile and desktop applications and connect the service to applications including Gmail (GOOG), Google Calendar, and Microsoft Outlook (MSFT).

Amazon (AMZN) is also introducing integrations with its Alexa+ assistant and shopping platform, allowing users to retrieve summaries and reminders through Alexa and receive personalized product recommendations based on items mentioned in conversations.

The company said audio is processed in real time and deleted afterward, while transcripts are encrypted and accessible only to users unless they choose to share them. Both devices include a button to activate or deactivate processing and an indicator light.

Bee users receive basic conversation summaries and a 14-day memory feature at no additional cost. Bee Pro costs $11.99 per month and includes additional features and integrations. New customers receive a 30 day free trial.
