Plaud One earphones feature 12 mm drivers, active noise cancellation and a case with eSIM that lets the AI agent receive remote commands without a phone or computer. The earbuds record up to six hours of meetings (25 hours total with the case) and transcribe five-meter-range conversations, offering 300 minutes of free transcription per month and credit-based task pricing. Pre-orders cost $249, with delivery slated for Q4 2026.
