Bengaluru's NeoSapien plans to charge for some advanced AI features on its next wearables, since they carry higher computing costs.
The Neo 2 is slated for mid-to-late 2027, while current Neo 1 owners keep their existing services at no extra cost. The startup says it has sold over 20,000 devices and processed 37 million minutes of conversations, and it has signed a deal with a large Indian FMCG firm.
It is also weighing another funding round in early 2027, though the founder says it isn't pressed to raise given that its spending remains low.
