Vocci ring puts meeting note-taking on your finger

Vocci has released a ring built for recording meetings. Rings from Pebble (Index 01) and Sandbar (Stream) are designed mainly for short notes and reminders. Vocci's device instead makes meeting capture its main job.

Hardware and controls

• A double tap on the button starts recording, and another double tap stops it.
• Pressing during a recording saves a highlight.
• Tapping and holding lets the wearer ask Vocci AI a question, but only while the app is open.
• An indicator light and a haptic motor confirm recording.
• The ring weighs under six grams and has a titanium finish on its inner and outer surfaces.

Vocci rates the ring at eight hours of recording per charge. A plastic case can recharge it three more times.

The app

Each recording is split into three parts: Chat is the full transcript, Highlights collects the snippets marked with the button, and Notes holds a summary with insights. A separate Base tab stores transcripts, audio and generated material. Vocci also supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP), so other AI assistants can connect to it; the option appeared in the app only a few weeks before the review.

In testing, the reviewer recorded conversations of more than an hour in loud cafés. He reported that most of the speech was transcribed accurately. He also found the app confusing, noted the lack of integration with reminder apps and saw AI insights that ran longer than his short notes.

Privacy and price

The ring looks much like ordinary jewellery, and its recording light faces the wearer rather than the people nearby. Some countries and regions legally require telling people that a conversation is being recorded. Vocci said it encourages users to disclose recording. The ring costs $249, above note-takers from Plaud or Pocket, a price the reviewer linked to the ring's lightweight form factor.
