Case study · Built on Sona
Ninja Concepts, and Ninja Notes
Ninja Concepts makes Ninja Notes, an AI note-taking app, and wanted a wearable with their own name on it.
- What we built
- We put Ninja Concepts' name on Neato Sona and wired it to Ninja Notes, so it works out of the box.
- How it works
- It snaps on at the lapel, lanyard, or wrist, captures the conversation, and hands it to Ninja Notes.
- Why it matters
- Ninja Concepts sells a device with their name on it, and every one of them brings customers to Ninja Notes.
Your software, already wired in
The hard part of hardware is everything between the button and your app. That part is finished.
Data plate
The snap-on is the reference build. Every other shape in the model line carries the same board, the same radio stack, and the same software contract, so a run in one shape is a head start on the next.
