How Incus Hearing Aids Help with Hearing Loss
All Incus hearing aids can be customized to fit your unique hearing condition.
Kite 2 boosts speech clarity without over-amplifying noise or already-loud sounds.
Hear Up to 30X Clearer
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) patented Intelligent Noise Reduction technology reduces background noise and makes speech up to 30 times clearer.
Dual-microphone arrays are used to locate and separate sounds in the environment.
An AI-based technique distinguishes between noise and sounds you want to hear.
Focus On What Matters
Focus Mode is ideal for conversations, while Environment Mode allows you to keep situational awareness.
It's Time for Change
A pair of decent traditional hearing aids starts at HK$20,000 (that's not a typo!), and premium hearing aids can cost HK$50,000+.
Yet, they are noisy, hard to use, with a medical look.
Why?
Why Traditional Hearing Aids Are So Expensive
Because the "Big Five" have cornered the market. >98% of hearing aids worldwide come from 5 corporations.
They know untreated hearing loss can severely impact life quality, so people will still buy hearing aids at high prices.
We founded Incus in Hong Kong in 2016 to provide premium hearing assistance technology at 10% of the price of traditional hearing aids.
It turned out to be easier said than done.
This Breakthrough Makes Premium Hearing Assistance Technology Affordable
Cheap is not difficult. There are plenty of low-end hearing devices, but they sound cheap.The performance of a hearing aid is mainly decided by the digital signal processing algorithms it runs.
So the most important component in a hearing aid is the chip, which has to run high-performance algorithms with unnoticeable processing delay.
We discovered there were no suitable chips available in the market. So we spent millions of dollars and 5+ years to develop the first high-performance hearing aid chip in Greater China: Magic Flute 620.
How Magic Flute 620 Compares to Traditional Hearing Aid Chips:
-
10X Peak Computing Power
10 times more computing power. Adapts in real-time to the environment by analysing 64 audio channels and making hundreds of adjustments each second.
-
90% Price Reduction
With our own chip, we're able to provide premium hearing solutions at 10% of the price of traditional hearing aids.
-
28nm
28-nanometer chip is more efficient than 65/130nm chips found in traditional hearing aids.

Why Customers Love Kite 2

Ms. Lee ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
My hearing declined after retiring. I could not hear clearly. Now, I can have normal conversations. I have used Kite 2 for over 1 year and I feel much better than before I started wearing it. The price is an important factor, of course. It is a very cost-effective solution. I use it for conversations and listening to e-books, and I will strongly recommend it.
