Starkey
Flagship platform · Omega AI
Starkey hearing aids, selected, fit, and verified at North Shore Hearing in Glendale.
A strong option for patients who want hearing and health tracking in one device
If battery life, all-direction speech clarity, and health awareness matter alongside hearing, Starkey is one of the brands we demonstrate. We fit the full lineup, so the recommendation is based on your hearing, your life, and your budget, not on the feature list.
The only American-owned hearing aid company in the industry
Starkey is the only American-owned hearing aid company in the industry and the first to introduce AI into hearing aids. The Omega AI is the latest product of that ongoing investment.
Dr. Aussem fits every major brand and verifies each fitting with Real Ear Measurement. The right brand depends on your hearing, your lifestyle, and your budget.
American-owned, American-made
Starkey is headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota and is the only hearing aid manufacturer in the industry that is American-owned. That is a meaningful distinction for patients who prefer to support domestic manufacturing, and it has not changed since the company was founded.
First in AI, still deepening it
Starkey was the first hearing aid manufacturer to introduce AI into its products. The Omega AI platform extends that work with DNN 360, a deep neural network-powered directionality system that processes speech from all directions simultaneously rather than relying on a fixed beam or focus point.
Hearing aids that track more than hearing
Omega AI includes Balance Builder for guided stability exercises and an automatic Respiratory Rate Monitor, both accessible through the My Starkey app. These are not priorities for every patient, but for those managing fall risk or wanting a baseline on respiratory health, the added data has practical value.
Built to last longer in the real world
The Omega AI's waterproof coating is tested to last 10 times longer than the previous generation under demanding conditions. LED indicator lights confirm power and Bluetooth status at a glance, and double as a Find My Hearing Aid feature, an industry first.
The Omega AI, up close
The Omega AI is Starkey's current flagship, introduced in late 2025. Rather than focusing on sound from one direction, it processes speech from all directions at once, so a conversation that shifts around the table does not leave you behind. Starkey reports up to 28% better speech clarity in challenging environments compared to the previous platform.
Like every aid we fit, it is set and verified with Real Ear Measurement. TeleHear AI, a generative AI tool within the My Starkey app, helps troubleshoot sound concerns in real time with 93% predictive accuracy according to Starkey's data, meaning most common issues can be resolved through the app rather than requiring a return visit to the office. The TV streamer also reconnects automatically after interruptions, which removes one of the more common daily frustrations with streaming accessories.
Built for real days
The features people actually notice once the aids are in, plainly described. No spec sheet gymnastics.
51 hours on a single charge
Up to 51 hours on a single charge, among the longest in the category. Most wearers can go several days between charges. The waterproof coating is built to outlast previous generations.
Generative AI assistance and reliable streaming
Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast-ready. TeleHear AI in the My Starkey app helps troubleshoot sound concerns in real time. The TV Streamer reconnects automatically after any interruption.
All-direction speech, adapted continuously
Speech is processed from all directions at once, so you do not need to reposition yourself as conversations move. Edge Mode+ sharpens focus in loud environments on demand.
RIC form factor with visible utility features, verified to your ear
Available in RIC and mini RIC styles. LED lights confirm power and Bluetooth at a glance and double as a Find My Hearing Aid feature. Verified with Real Ear Measurement at every fitting.
