AI Pendant with Always-On Memory
According to The Information, Meta is developing an AI pendant that could enter testing within the next year.
The device builds on technology from Limitless, a startup Meta acquired that created a wearable pendant capable of recording conversations and generating summaries.
The pendant can be clipped onto clothing or worn around the neck, acting as a personal AI assistant that remembers everything said throughout the day.

New Smart Glasses and Enterprise Subscription
The same memo indicates Meta is preparing several new smart glasses models scheduled for launch by the end of 2026.
These devices will continue Meta's focus on AI-powered experiences, building on the success of its Ray-Ban smart glasses.
Meta is also exploring a subscription service called Wearables for Work, aimed at business users.

The enterprise-focused subscription could include meeting transcription, note-taking assistance, and integration with workplace platforms.
This strategy positions Meta's wearables as productivity tools rather than purely consumer gadgets, potentially expanding into professional environments where hands-free information access is valuable.
Meta's wearable portfolio already includes smart glasses and virtual reality products, with other hardware projects reportedly in development.
