Scriben vs Limitless Pendant

A system you can buy—and carry forward.

Limitless facts checked on 13 September 2026 against Meta’s acquisition announcement, Limitless’s own help centre and contemporaneous reporting. We have no interest in overstating this: the Pendant was a good product and the team went to a good place. The only thing that matters here is that you cannot buy one and support ends.

Questions

The ones people actually ask.

Can I still buy a Limitless Pendant?

No. Sales ended when Meta acquired Limitless in December 2025. Existing Pendants are supported through 2026 and nothing has been committed beyond that. Checked 13 September 2026 against Meta’s announcement and Limitless’s own help centre.

What happens to my Pendant data?

That is a question for Limitless, and the reason this page exists is that the support window is finite. If you are moving across, our switching guide covers what changes day to day.

Does Limitless work in the UK or EU?

Service ended there on 19 December 2025, along with Brazil, China, Israel, South Korea and Turkey. Scriben is available and your data stays yours.

Is a pen better than a pendant?

Different, not better. A pendant is hands-free; a pen is something you were already holding and writes in real ink. If hands-free is what you need, a pen is not that.

What does Scriben cost to keep using?

The pen is a $129 one-time hardware purchase. Scriben software starts with a $0/month Free plan; Pro is optional for higher usage, advanced models and workflows.

If you already own one

You are not stuck.

Your Pendant keeps working for now, and there is no rush in the US. But the window is finite and it has already closed in Europe. We wrote a straight guide to moving across.
