What is the IPEVO VOCAL Wearable?

The IPEVO VOCAL Wearable is a compact wireless microphone system with two 28 mm wearable voice receivers, a USB-C wireless AI connector, a charging case and a Vurbo.ai Pro licence for 10 hours. It is designed for workplaces supporting dyslexic employees, and for professionals who need accurate transcripts of meetings, interviews and conferences.

How it helps

Listening, processing and writing at the same time can make meetings tiring and important details easy to miss. The VOCAL Wearable captures each speaker's voice close to the mouth, and Vurbo.ai converts speech to text, produces summaries and translates within seconds. The Pro plan adds floating subtitles and two-way translation, including real-time captions for Zoom, Microsoft Teams and other online meetings.

The wireless AI connector plugs into a computer or mobile phone through USB-C, and the wearables work up to 20 metres away. Each wearable lasts 8 hours, and the charging case recharges the pair up to 3 times.

For the workplace

• Reasonable adjustments: a discreet option employers can consider under the Equality Act 2010 for staff who find note-taking or following fast discussion difficult.
• Access to Work: may form part of support recommended in an Access to Work workplace assessment; eligibility is decided by Access to Work.
• Professional records: transcripts and summaries for interviews, supervision, training and client meetings.
• Specialist vocabulary: domain-specific terminology recognition helps with technical and sector language.

Supporting dyslexic employees

Many dyslexic adults find written note-taking slow and tiring, especially when spelling unfamiliar terms under time pressure. The VOCAL Wearable lets them stay engaged in the conversation while Vurbo.ai builds the written record. Floating subtitles give a second, visual channel during online calls, and the transcript can be reviewed afterwards at a comfortable pace.

Recognised design

IPEVO states that the VOCAL Wearable has received recognition from InfoComm, ISE, ISTE and the TMC Unified Communications Product of the Year Award.
