Look.
Ask. Understand.
Iride is the iPhone app that connects your Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 glasses to the AI of your choice — cloud or local. Look at whatever sparks your curiosity, pick a context, get a report about what you're seeing: a plant, a dish, a painting, a building, a mechanism, a book. All hands-free.
An AI that sees with your eyes
Frame what you want to understand with the Ray-Ban Meta — or with the iPhone camera. Pick a context (the custom prompt that steers the AI): travel, nature, food, art, study, foreign language. The app produces a readable, listenable, shareable report.
You look, the AI looks with you
Ray-Ban Meta snap a photo on a temple tap. The photo goes to the AI with the context you've chosen. Recognises objects, landscapes, text, symbols, animals and plants. Iride does not identify or describe the people in the frame.
Customisable prompts
6 ready-to-use contexts (describe, detail, recognise objects, translate, tell a story, default) plus the ability to author your own prompts with custom instructions and tone of voice.
On-device AI (zero-cloud)
Download SmolVLM2 2.2B, Qwen2-VL 2B/7B or Phi-3.5 Vision straight to the iPhone. With local models (Apple MLX) no photo leaves your phone; with cloud models the photo is sent to the provider you choose. Works on airplane mode.
Cloud AI of your choice
Anthropic Claude (Opus 4.7, Sonnet 4.6, Haiku 4.5), OpenAI GPT-5, Google Gemini 2 Flash. The keys are yours, encrypted in the iOS Keychain — no middleman, no markup.
Voice + wake word
Say "Hey Iride, what am I looking at?" or press the temple bar: the app reads the report aloud — handy when your hands are busy. Iride is not a medical device or an aid for visually impaired people.
Shareable report
Each observation becomes a card with photo + description + structured data. Export to PDF or Markdown, share via Mail / WhatsApp / AirDrop, save to Files. You decide what to do with it.
From a glance to a report
Four simple steps — from "what is that?" to a shareable report — without pulling out the phone unless you want to read the result.
-
You look
Single tap on the Ray-Ban Meta temple. The photo enters the session buffer. Repeat for each detail or angle you care about: tap, tap, tap.
-
Pick the context
One tap on a preset: Describe, Recognise objects, Translate, Tell a story, or your own custom prompt. The AI knows what to look for and how to answer.
-
The AI answers
Double tap: all photos go to the model (cloud or local) in a single multi-image call. You get a structured answer — text, data, references — ready to read or have read aloud to you.
-
Shareable report
Triple tap on the temple: the iOS Share Sheet opens with the PDF report + all photos. Mail, WhatsApp, AirDrop, save to Files, read aloud: it's your call.
