Bee, the personal AI wearable maker acquired by Amazon in 2025, introduced two devices on October 15, its first new hardware since the deal, TechCrunch reported.
The Bee Frontier, priced at $74.99, is a successor to the company's original gadget and can be worn on a wrist or clipped to clothing. The Bee Eclipse, at $99.99, is roughly the size of a credit card and attaches magnetically to the back of a phone. The Frontier is sold on Amazon now, with the Eclipse to follow.
The pricing places Bee below rival AI recorders, according to TechCrunch: the Plaud Note sells for $159, the Note Pro for $189 and the Pocket for $129.
The devices listen to everyday conversations and turn them into summaries, reminders and calendar entries. Basic recaps are free and come with a two-week memory window. A $11.99 monthly Bee Pro plan adds unlimited summaries, a chat assistant, suggested tasks and links to Amazon.com, Alexa+ and outside apps.
Bee said raw audio is processed as it happens and then discarded, with transcripts encrypted using keys generated on the device, so Amazon staff cannot read them unless a user chooses to share. The devices also connect to Gmail, Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook and Apple's HealthKit. Both ship with a redesigned phone app and a new desktop version.
