Dear AGIGA Community,
We’re thrilled to announce that the anticipated EchoVision will begin shipping with its Pioneers edition on October 29, 2025. This is a major step forward for our community, and we couldn’t have reached it without your belief in our mission.
What “Pioneers Edition” Means
EchoVision Pioneers Edition is your chance to be among the very first to use our smart glasses in daily life. This version is fully functional, but it’s not the final stop on our journey. Some features (E.g: Reading mode, Live AI) are launching in Beta — meaning you get access now while we continue to refine and expand their capabilities.
And here’s the best part:
Free hardware upgrade: When our next hardware upgrade rolls out — featuring a 50% increase in battery capacity — you’ll receive it at no additional cost.
Risk-free until upgrade: You can request a refund any time until your upgraded device is delivered.
Help shape the future: By using EchoVision for at least 30-mins daily and sharing feedback, your experience helps us improve faster.
We view everyone who receives the EchoVision Pioneers Edition as true pioneers—more than just early adopters, but partners in shaping the future of EchoVision. Together, we can push boundaries and create something truly remarkable: the only and the best smart glasses that's made with, by and for the blind and low vision community.
For more information, please refer to the FAQ at the end of the email.
Shipping Begins October 29: Phased Roll-Out
To ensure quality and support, shipments will roll out in phases. Priority will be given to early deposit holders.
To receive your EchoVision glasses, it is crucial to complete the form to provide required final shipping details, which includes your shipping address, lens preferences, and your decision regarding participation in the Pioneers Edition Program.
If you prefer to wait for the upgraded version of the glasses and skip the current version, you can opt out of the Pioneers Edition Program while completing the survey.
For those who haven't yet ordered EchoVision but are interested, please note that the Pre-Order period ends on October 29 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time. Pre-ordering before this deadline unlocks exclusive benefits that won't be available afterward, including a lifetime free subscription for use with the pre-order device and complimentary magnetic sunglasses clip-ons designed for instant lighting adjustments.
Beta Test Update
We conducted extensive testing with a larger group of blind users, who provided invaluable feedback on EchoVision. Their input helped us identify and address numerous bugs, significantly improving the functionality and reliability of the system. Beyond the technical insights, they also expressed genuine enthusiasm and delight in using EchoVision, here’re some examples:
“On the walk over, I turned on live AI mode. As I strolled down the left side of the street, the glasses automatically read out most of the signs on the buildings I was passing. Because of the wide-angle camera, I didn’t even need to angle my head left — it just picked them up and gave me a play-by-play…That combination of awareness and confidence is exactly what I’ve been hoping for in a pair of AI glasses. Today really showed me how useful this tech can be.”
–Michael F.
“I truly do love this product, and even in this early stage, and am very impressed…
We have several cards and invitations on the fridge in the kitchen. I wasn’t sure what each was. I did a scene description while standing in the kitchen. I was told about the refrigerator in general. I followed up by asking the AI to “read text visible on the fridge”. It had no problem doing this, and even read text including dates on invitations, without needing to take a new photo.”
–Chase C.
