Audria vs Omi (2026)
Last updated August 8, 2026
Audria is the agentic AI notetaker for teams that work from office: it turns office conversations into completed actions in your tools, understands every person on your team, and makes your Claude or ChatGPT an expert on your work. Here is how that compares with Omi.
Omi is the open-source flag bearer for ambient capture. The $179 pendant ships with published schematics and firmware under MIT, a free tier that includes 1,200 cloud transcription minutes a month plus unlimited on-phone transcription, and a store of hundreds of community-built apps. Its architecture answers a personal question: memories, conversations, and action items all belong to one account, the wearer's enrolled voice is the one the system recognizes, and everyone else in the room appears as a numbered speaker. Audria starts from the other end. It is built for a team in an office, so voices resolve to named colleagues, each person accumulates a ledger of commitments, and the output lands as drafted tickets, messages, and emails in the tools your team already runs.

Which should you pick?
Choose Omi if you want an open-source wearable you can hack on and a personal memory of your own days. Choose Audria if the memory needs to belong to a team, with real names, a per-person ledger, and drafted follow-through.
