Friend is an AI companion pendant — a sub-two-inch wearable with a microphone that pairs with a phone app and communicates back to the user via text messages rather than speech. Originally announced at $99, the product shipped (after delays) in 2025 at $129 in North America. Friend is a consumer hardware company with no public developer API, SDK, or partner program; only the consumer site, an app, and the Wikipedia / press coverage exist as references.
