Summary
Pocket, a Y Combinator-backed startup, has raised $11M to compete in the growing market for AI-powered note-taking devices. Unlike failed AI gadgets like Rabbit and Humane, dedicated recording/transcription gadgets have found traction. Pocket sells a $129 credit card-shaped puck that sticks to the back of a phone and offers unlimited recordings, transcriptions, and to-do items. The company faces competition from Plaud, Mobvoi, Anker, Viaim, and Vibe in a market that is large but somewhat constrained by smartphones already handling these tasks well with note-taking apps.
