SwitchBot is joining the AI voice recorder bandwagon, introducing its own clip-on gadget that captures and organizes your every conversation. The SwitchBot AI MindClip announced at CES records spoken information from your daily life and work meetings and converts those conversations into summaries, to-do actions, and a personal audio memory database.

This announcement follows competing AI recorder launches like Bee, Plaud’s NotePin, and Anker’s Soundcore Work. The MindClip weighs 18 grams, supports more than 100 languages, and has a similar design to the lighter Soundcore Work — both sport a button-like recorder and square-shaped clip.

The MindClip is designed to work like a “second brain,” according to SwitchBot, allowing users to search and retrieve previous discussions that may have otherwise been forgotten. The AI-powered summarization, task creation, and information recall features will only be available to users who subscribe to an unspecified “cloud service,” according to SwitchBot’s press release. The company hasn’t shared how much this service and the device itself will cost, or when either is expected to launch.
