Pick glasses if
You want moments: photos and video of kids, travel, and things you see. See Ray-Ban Meta on Amazon
Pick a recorder if
You want words: meetings, calls, decisions and to-dos. I use Pocket for this every day. Get Pocket
Privacy
Both record other people. Glasses are more visible, which is good for consent and bad for blending in. A recorder is easy to forget is on, so tell people. Follow local recording laws.
See is an AI pendant worth it for more on recorders, and Ray-Ban Meta Gen 2 for busy parents for the glasses. Meeting software is another route: see best AI note taker with no bot .
What my agent can do with it
My agent reads my day through Pocket’s transcripts using the Pocket MCP server . Glasses footage doesn’t feed an agent that easily yet, which is part of why I lean on audio.
