Summary
$99 Interface is Natura’s new smart ring, built to let users trigger AI agents with a finger press while also tracking heart rate, HRV, sleep, activity and skin temperature.
At launch, the ring will work with agents and apps including Claude, ChatGPT, Grokbot, Meta’s Muse and Instinct, with responses delivered through headphones, an iPhone Live Activity or Natura’s app.
Pre-orders open next month, shipping is slated for December or January, and Natura plans a $9 monthly subscription after a free three- to six-month period while keeping the initial hardware price low to drive adoption.
Battery life is rated at 6 to 12 days with a 100-minute recharge, positioning the device against health-focused rings like Oura and Samsung Galaxy Ring as well as AI-centric rivals such as Pebble and Vocci.
Founder Carlo Edoardo Ferraris says the ring is meant as a phone-light interface for always-on personal agents, targeting early tech users first before broader adoption as AI assistants spread.
