This week in consumer products.
Recent launches from Agari, Flowtica, Antigravity, and Nik Bentel.
1. Agari AI Smart Cooker – Low-Temp Cooking Meets Instant Sear
What it is:
A countertop cooker that scans your food with AI, cooks it gently under pressure, and finishes with a high-heat sear.
Key features:
AI-powered 3D scanning calculates size and starting temperature
Cooks with pressure at low temps for sous-vide level tenderness 3x faster
Switches to a 550°F sear in under 60 seconds
Produces consistent doneness from edge to edge
Works for proteins and vegetables alike
Why it matters:
Sous-vide offers precision but requires bags, long waits, and extra searing. Agari compresses that workflow into one device, making restaurant-style results accessible with a single button press.
2. Flowtica Scribe – Recording and Notes Inside a Pen
What it is:
A working pen with built-in AI-powered microphones that record, transcribe, and summarize conversations.
Key features:
Dual microphones capture clear audio up to 16 feet away
AI filters noise and separates up to 15 unique voices
Tap to highlight key moments with FlowMark™
Transcripts and summaries generated automatically in 39 languages
Syncs handwritten notes with audio through the Flowtica app
Why it matters:
Meetings, lectures, and conversations no longer require juggling listening and writing. Scribe ensures ideas are captured fully, searchable later, and linked to the context of when they were said.
3. Antigravity A1 – The World’s First 360 Drone
What it is:
A lightweight drone built in collaboration with Insta360 that records 8K video in 360 degrees.
Key features:
Dual-lens setup captures every angle in 8K
Advanced stitching makes the drone itself invisible in footage
Immersive goggles and Grip controller allow head-tracked 360 flight
“Fly first, frame later” — reframe any angle after the flight
Weighs just 0.55 lbs, staying under registration limits in most regions
Why it matters:
Most drones require pilots to frame shots mid-flight. The A1 captures everything at once, so creators can focus on flying and reframe in editing later, reducing missed moments and opening up new possibilities.
4. Nik Bentel Studio Tati Fête Bag – A Musical Handbag
Price: $350
What it is:
A handbag collection that integrates audio technology, including Bluetooth speakers and mixers, into transparent acrylic shells.
Key features:
Speaker Bag includes a stereo Bluetooth speaker with enhanced bass
Three hours of playtime on a charge
RGB LED lighting and TWS pairing for dual-bag sync
Mixer Bag doubles as a portable multichannel audio controller
Handcrafted acrylic design with visible wiring and exposed hardware
Why it matters:
The Tati Fête collection reimagines accessories as functional electronics. It’s fashion that also acts as a portable sound system or live music tool, sparking new intersections between design and technology.
That’s all for this week!
