TicNote Pods, launched on Kickstarter, is an entirely new category in the wearables space. It is the world’s first 4G AI note-taking earbuds. Designed by Mobvoi, these earbuds are built to do far more than play music or take calls. With built-in 4G eSIM and a customized Shadow AI system, TicNote Pods can record, sync, and transcribe conversations completely on their own. There is no need for a smartphone, Bluetooth pairing, or manual uploads, making them truly independent and always connected.

Smart Recording, Wherever You Are

TicNote Pods are designed for real-life use across both personal and professional settings. When worn, the earbuds can clearly capture in-ear conversations, online meetings, Zoom calls, phone calls, interviews, and classroom lectures. They work seamlessly while you are actively listening or speaking, ensuring important details are never missed.

Even when you are not wearing the earbuds, the charging case itself doubles as a standalone recorder. Simply placing it on a table allows it to capture ambient room conversations. This is especially useful for group discussions, workshops, meetings, and spontaneous conversations, offering flexibility that traditional recording devices cannot match.

Real-Time AI Powered by 4G

Thanks to built-in 4G connectivity, TicNote Pods sync recordings instantly and process them in real time. Audio is uploaded and transcribed on the fly, delivering live transcripts and summaries with virtually no delay. Everything happens automatically in the background, removing friction from note-taking and allowing users to focus on the conversation instead of the technology.

Built for Professionals and Daily Workflows

TicNote Pods are tailored for professionals across many fields, including journalists, students, researchers, corporate teams, and content creators. AI tools include real-time translation, professional summary formats, and an understanding of industry-specific terminology. Over time, the system builds a personal knowledge base that becomes more useful with continued use.

Engineering, Testing, and Quality

Developing TicNote Pods required combining 4G connectivity, high-quality audio, and professional-grade recording into a compact design. Mobvoi went through multiple design revisions, acoustic simulations, and lab tests to ensure a balance between sound quality, microphone clarity, and signal stability. Final products undergo strict quality checks, including drop tests, humidity exposure, battery aging, and 4G signal testing, ensuring durability and reliability.

Powered by Mobvoi’s Experience

Backed by Mobvoi’s decade-long expertise in AI and wearables, TicNote Pods represent the next step in human-tech interaction. They are built with a clear goal: to make recording, transcribing, and translating conversations effortless, directly from your ears.
