Nirva reportedly raises fresh funding for its AI wearable

Nirva reportedly raised $25 million ahead of its wearable launch. The startup is developing jewelry that uses AI to build a personal journal from its wearer’s speech.,

Lightspeed previously announced its participation in Nirva’s $8 million seed financing in July. The investor described a device worn around the neck or wrist, designed to focus on the wearer’s voice and provide journaling and personal guidance.

Nirva says its product identifies recurring patterns involving emotions, behavior and relationships. Its product page says original recordings are removed after processing and that the information is excluded from AI training.

The company’s public landing page continues to invite email registrations ahead of availability. It describes a titanium device with two microphones and a battery intended to last two days between charges.
