What SmartInk is: AI on a sheet of paper
There are plenty of AI assistants on tablets and phones, but the smarter the screen, the more anxious it makes you. SmartInk uses e-paper to bring AI interaction back to the essence of “paper”:
- AI voice dialogue on screen: speak to it and answers appear on the E Ink display as text and bullet points — like a sticky note that thinks.
- Transcription and summaries: capture meetings and ideas by voice; cloud transcription automatically generates summaries and to-dos on screen.
- Eye-friendly e-paper: no blue light, no flicker, readable in sunlight, zero power in standby — closed, it is just a sheet of paper.
- Weeks of battery life: E Ink holds its image with no power, and the low-power chip stretches one charge over weeks.
- Slim and pocketable: pocket or journal sized, about the weight of a notebook.

In one line: SmartInk = the eye comfort and focus of paper + the recording intelligence of AI — unmatched in the scenario of “I want to read and capture quietly, but still want AI to organize it for me.”

Reading and knowledge management. E-books, RSS feeds and personal knowledge bases in sync; paper-like display keeps long reading sessions fatigue-free.
Kids and seniors. No games, no push notifications. Large-font E Ink for older eyes; parent-controlled content for focused use by children.
Industry-specific terminals. The E Ink + voice AI form also fits medical ward rounds, warehouse picking lists, conference table cards and other custom deployments.
FAQ
Which languages does SmartInk support?
Chinese and English transcription and dialogue ship first; Japanese, Spanish, French and more can be added per market.
Can it connect to our own app or cloud?
Yes. Open APIs and a white-label app are available; transcription and summarization can run on your cloud or ours.
What can ODM customization cover?
Industrial design (size, color, materials), screen size, button and microphone layout, packaging and branding — with small minimum orders.
How is it different from screen-equipped smart speakers?
E Ink is built for recording and reading: no blue light, no interruptions, battery life measured in weeks. Smart displays are built for showing and interaction. The two are complementary.
