Meta Acquires Limitless to Accelerate AI Wearables

The purchase brings Limitless’ conversation-recording pendant technology into Meta’s hardware roadmap.

Overview

  • Limitless makes a pendant device that records real-world conversations and produces transcripts and searchable summaries through a companion app.
  • Limitless will stop selling devices to new customers, and existing users must accept revised privacy terms to keep service.
  • Financial terms were not disclosed, and CEO Dan Siroker announced the deal in a company blog post.
  • Meta plans to integrate Limitless’ capabilities into next-generation AI-enabled wearables alongside its Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses partnerships.
  • The deal follows Meta’s hire of longtime Apple design executive Alan Dye and comes after Limitless raised more than $33 million from investors including Sam Altman and a16z.
