Announcing MentraOS 2.0 and Our $8M Raise

MentraOS 2.0 Launch

MentraOS (previously called AugmentOS) is how you get smart glasses apps and how you build smart glasses apps. You can get it now at MentraGlass.com/OS


If you want to explore the apps available for MentraOS, checkout the Mentra Store: Apps.MentraGlass.com


If you want to build smart glasses apps using the open-source smart glasses SDK, checkout the developer documentation: Docs.MentraGlass.com

Mentra Raises $8M Seed

At the same time, we’re announcing we raised $8M to build the OS for smart glasses - backed by the founders of Android, YouTube, Pebble, Y Combinator, and more (see image below).


This raise will enable us to build the open source software and hardware needed to usher in the next personal computer.
