About Mentra Live Camera Glasses

While other AI glasses lock you into closed ecosystems, Mentra Live's open-source architecture means your experience constantly grows and improves.

The first truly open source smart glasses, you can interact with AI, livestream to social media, take calls, listen to music, set reminders, and much more.

Mentra Live is one of the most comfortable and lightweight smart glasses ever created. We tested dozens of glasses and spent thousands of hours to ensure that Mentra Live is the most all-day wearable smart glasses on the market.

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, OnlyFans), 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.

Can I use Mentra Live without internet?

What is the Infinity Cable?
