Starkey Edge AI hearing aids are built with one of the most advanced sound processors available. Inside each device is a dedicated chip that constantly monitors your surroundings and adjusts how you hear in real time. This allows the hearing aid to respond naturally to everyday challenges—like following a conversation in a noisy room or hearing someone speak from across the table. One of the key tools in this system is a feature called Edge Mode+. With a simple tap on your hearing aid, you can activate this mode for extra help when you need it. The device will instantly analyse the sound around you and make quick adjustments to bring speech into focus. It works especially well in places like restaurants, family gatherings, or busy public spaces, where background noise can easily get in the way. The smart technology inside Edge AI doesn’t just adjust volume—it pays attention to the direction of speech, softens loud or sudden sounds, and improves clarity without making things sound unnatural. It’s designed to make speech easier to understand, even when your surroundings change from one moment to the next. This level of performance comes from years of research into how people hear in real-life situations. Starkey’s sound processor has been trained and tested using thousands of everyday listening environments, helping it respond more effectively to the needs of each individual. In addition to improving how you hear, this smart chip also powers wellness features like fall alerts, step tracking, and daily activity monitoring. These tools work quietly in the background and are available through the My Starkey app, which gives you full control over settings and personal preferences.
