Aina is a wearable AI ring that opened preorders on 5 November 2026. It carries a screen, a joystick, a microphone and a speaker, and supports gestures. The pitch is an interface for proactive AI agents: rather than reaching for a phone to approve each action an agent wants to take, the approval happens on the ring.
Beyond agent approvals it handles prompts, notes, reminders and dictation, working with Wispr Flow or Aina own dictation engine. It also takes calls, shows phone notifications, controls music and smart home devices including Apple TV, and drives apps on a Mac or phone.
Early-bird pricing is 399 US dollars, rising to 499 after that period. Shipping is planned for January 2027. Founder Apoorv Shankar previously built Mirage, a three-key Mac controller, and Aina raised 5.5 million dollars in July 2026.
No battery life, weight or screen dimensions have been published, which for a device worn all day are the figures that decide whether it gets used. The category already includes Pebble Index 01, Sandbar Stream, Oasis and Natura.
