As avid technologists ourselves, we understand the frustration with introducing a new device into your day-to-day: it’s just another thing to keep charged. We’ve designed Tone with this in mind. Tone is compatible with any Qi wireless standard charging pad, but will also ship

Tone was born from our dissatisfaction with the existing AI wearable space. Compared to alternatives, Tone is designed with quality in mind: for a device as compact and subtle as a pendant, the devil is in the details: - Tone is the smallest AI pendant yet, ≈20% smaller than

@justingordon212 There's a fair argument to be made that working a reasonable amount of time each day and getting good levels of sleep/socialization affords more productivity than grinding 24/7. There's definitely an optimal balance somewhere in between. Idk just a thought.
