AirCaps

AirCaps introduces AI-powered assistance to enhance in-person conversations. This innovative AI copilot delivers real-time captions, translations, AI-generated meeting notes, and actionable insights directly into face-to-face interactions. Deployed as a lightweight AR glasses application, AirCaps seamlessly overlays visual information onto the user's field of vision, providing contextual awareness and support. Imagine a Zoom AI assistant or Granola, but designed for the nuances of in-person communication, offering proactive assistance during the conversation, rather than just post-event analysis. AirCaps aims to establish a comprehensive capture and intelligence layer for the vast landscape of daily face-to-face conversations. To date, AirCaps has processed over 16,500 hours of real-world conversations, with users leveraging the technology in 11% of their in-person interactions. The company achieved $93,000 in revenue in October, experiencing a 6.5x growth from September with minimal marketing expenditure. Power users demonstrate high engagement, averaging over 6 hours of daily usage, and the platform boasts a day-30 retention rate of 91%. AirCaps has garnered significant attention, achieving viral status on TikTok and being featured in prominent publications such as The New Yorker, WIRED, and Forbes. The leadership team comprises Madhav (CEO, Yale CS), with extensive experience in audio and AR development, and Nirbhay (CTO, Cornell CS), specializing in voice and conversational AI.
