EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA – Starkey’s Livio AI was named the winner of a Silver Stevie® Award in the Health & Pharmaceuticals Product category in the 18th Annual American Business Awards®. 

Created in 2002 and judged by 200 executives across the U.S., the Stevie® Awards recognize excellence in the workplace. During the evaluation process, judges noted, “The list of features of Livio AI is astounding. Starkey is taking great steps towards more inclusive living for hearing impaired individuals.”

A gateway to understanding a patient’s overall wellbeing, the ear is increasingly being recognized as a highly effective place to measure key health indicators. Taking advantage of this knowledge, Starkey launched Livio AI, boasting a wide range of features and benefits. It is the world’s first and only hearing aid to utilize artificial intelligence and integrated sensors to provide superior sound quality and the ability to track both body and brain health. 

“Allowing people to more proactively control their health was a crucial addition to our devices. Mounting evidence shows treatment of hearing loss with hearing aids can help prevent serious health issues such as cardiovascular disease and dementia. We are proud to be paving the way forward in hearing health technology, and we are humbled by this recognition.” 

Starkey President, Brandon Sawalich

In 2019, Starkey added a variety of new features that continue to deliver on the promise of helping people hear and live better. They include fall detection, voice-to-text transcription and direct streaming.
