Oticon Intent Hearing Aids
Oticon Intent is Oticon’s latest hearing aid (February 2024). It supports natural brain sound processing and gives you improved access to your sound environment. The Oticon Intent improves sound awareness and speech clarity so you can better understand speech.
The Oticon Intent is the world’s first hearing aid with 4D Sensor technology. This technology combines information from your acoustic environment, head movement, body movement, and conversation activity. The hearing aid captures your listening intentions to further customize the sound settings for optimal hearing.

Prescription hearing aid
Sound Quality
Oticon Intent uses artificial intelligence to improve sound quality. This is made possible by its on-board Deep Neural Network (DNN). AI pattern recognition technology adapts to different listening situations so that it’s easier to hear and understand what someone is saying. This technology creates a listening experience where the user can better hear soft sounds without noise, understand speech, and have reduced listening effort.
Comfort
The Oticon Intent’s mini receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) style features an ergonomic fit behind the ear. The portion that sits inside the ear can be standard miniFit domes, grip tips, or custom molded MicroShells.
Dexterity/Controls
The Oticon Intent’s rechargeable battery helps with ease of use since there are no small batteries to change. Fast contact charging is supported with a full day of use (16 hours) after only one hour of charging, or you can get up to four hours of use after 15 minutes of charging. A fully charged battery lasts 24 hours. The Oticon Intent features the all new Desktop charger.
You have the option of automatic adjustments by the hearing aid or can also use manual controls (single push button). There is a remote control and the Oticon Companion App for additional adjustments.
Hearing Loss
The Oticon Intent hearing aid can be adjusted for mild to profound hearing loss. Available speaker/receiver power levels include 60 dB, 85 dB, 100 dB and 105 dB.
