viaim, the AI hardware innovator behind a new wave of human-centred productivity devices, has officially unveiled its latest creation: the viaim OpenNote earbuds. Unlike traditional earbuds, OpenNote isn’t just about music—it’s a sleek, over-the-ear lifestyle accessory that blends premium style, all-day comfort, and powerful AI-driven productivity tools.
Designed for people who want tech that looks as good as it performs, OpenNote helps users capture ideas, manage meetings, and organise tasks across multiple languages—all while delivering high-quality audio for work, play, and everything in between. Whether closing deals at the office, brainstorming over coffee, or decompressing with a playlist, OpenNote is positioned as the ultimate bridge between productivity and lifestyle.

Expanding viaim’s AI Audio Ecosystem
OpenNote joins viaim’s growing portfolio of AI-powered productivity audio gear. Earlier this year at CES 2025, the company introduced:
-
RecDot – professional-grade AI recording earphones, optimised for business meetings and trusted by professionals.
-
NoteKit – a portable AI transcription and note management system that plugs directly into laptops.
With OpenNote now in the mix, viaim completes its three-tier ecosystem: high-performance solutions for the office, mobile note-taking, and everyday lifestyle use.
