Mira builds lightweight AI glasses that act like a second brain. They help people remember conversations, get answers in under a second, translate 60+ languages, and surface useful context in real time—all through a private display and without a camera. We’re a small team of engineers and builders in San Francisco working across wearable hardware, real-time AI, waveguides, low-latency systems, and privacy-by-design. Audio is converted to transcripts rather than stored, and users control their memories and data. We’ve shipped our first batch and are scaling the product from prototype to reliable consumer hardware.
