About Mentra Live
Mentra Live is open-source smart glasses with a full SDK, camera, audio, and AI. Build and deploy custom apps for field work, inspections, remote support, and any hands-free workflow.
The MiniApp Store lets you deploy apps to your team and update them over the air.
At 43 grams, Mentra Live is light enough for all-day wear across shifts, field work, and real-world deployments. We tested dozens of frames and spent thousands of hours to make sure these are smart glasses people actually keep on.
Mentra Live is a platform. It's designed to be powerfully customizable for your exact use case and deployment. At the same time, it comes with multiple apps out of the box:
Mentra AI
Ask questions and get answers hands-free. Give your AI app real-time visual context through the camera.
Photo & Video
Capture high-quality photos and video for documentation, QA, and training content.
Stream your View
Stream a live video feed to a remote colleague or expert. They see what you see, hands-free.
Calls & Audio
Take calls through any platform your team already uses. Built-in stereo speakers and three microphones.

Product & Features
What can Mentra Live do?
Mentra Live is the only smart glasses with an app store, so your experience constantly evolves. Ask AI questions about what you see, capture photos and videos, livestream to anywhere (Twitch, X, YouTube, TikTok), listen to music, take calls, get live captions and translations, utilize AI note-taking, and much more.
What makes Mentra Live so unique?
Mentra Live is the only smart glasses with an app store, which means your experience can constantly evolve. With other glasses, your experience is locked into a closed ecosystem. Your data and information is used to serve you ads and gain information about your life. (i.e., Meta!) With Mentra Live, it's your data, your apps, your glasses. They're also all-day wearable. Other AI glasses claim the same, but they're over 50 grams and uncomfortable after a few hours. Mentra Live is build to become a seamless part of your everyday life.
Does Mentra Live have a display?
No. That's on purpose – lighter, longer-lasting, and more comfortable. Displays add weight and drain the battery. Mentra Lives are some of the lightest smart glasses on the market (not to mention amongst the most affordable). However, Mentra Display will be coming later on in 2026.
Does Mentra Live work with my prescription lenses?
Yes. You can swap your Mentra Live lenses through any optician.

We've optimized Mentra Live for long battery life. All-day wear: 10+ hours of mixed use | Music: 5+ hours | Live streaming: 40+ mins | Video recording: 1+ hours
Is Mentra Live waterproof?
You cannot swim with Mentra Lives, but they are fine for light rain, sweat, and everyday use. Don't wear them in heavy rain.
Can I use Mentra Live without internet?
Yes, you can take videos, photos, calls, listen to music, and more without internet.
What comes in the box?
Mentra Live glasses, charging case, infinity cable, microfiber cloth.
What is the Infinity Cable?
The Infinity Cable is a special cable that plugs into your glasses and lets you charge them while you wear them for infinite battery life. It's powered by a battery pack, your phone, or anything with USB-C.
