Now Introducing — Legato Frames

Natural hearing,
hiding in plain sight.

We believe hearing is a superpower. So we've invented hearing glasses to make your hearing super. Unmatched clarity that reconnects you to the world, one conversation at a time.

Making hearing your super power

The Legato Frames.

Three breakthroughs in one frame. Designed to disappear, engineered to perform.

Audio Demo

You have to hear
it to believe it.

A noisy restaurant. Two settings. Same voice across the table. Tap play and toggle to hear what Legato actually does to a difficult conversation.

How it works

From the box to your
first conversation.

Wear
01 — WEAR

Put them on.

They auto-tune to your environment in under a second. No app required to start hearing better.

Tune
02 — TUNE

Dial it in (optional).

The Legato app lets you nudge balance, volume, and listening zone — but most people set it once and never reopen it.

Step 3
03

There's no step three.

No audiologist needed. No doctor visit. No ugly.

The science is loud,
even when the room is.

Independently tested against the leading hearing aids and open-ear audio devices on standardized speech-in-noise benchmarks.

Legato vs. traditional hearing aids

A different starting point,
changes everything.

Traditional hearing aids

Built like medical devices.

  • Visible in-ear hardware that announces itself
  • Multiple audiologist visits to fit and tune
  • $3,000–$7,000+ price tag, often out of pocket
  • Daily battery changes or short charge cycles
  • Stigmatizing — most people delay using them by 7+ years
Legato Frames

Built like the eyewear you already wear.

  • Indistinguishable from normal glasses, even up close
  • Self-fitting in 60 seconds — no clinic required
  • One transparent price. Insurance-eligible.
  • 14-hour battery. One charge per day, every day.
  • Eyewear that improves your hearing, not the other way around

people to repeat themselves.

Made by the team that built the category

We made hearing glasses for everyone, not just the few.

Hearing aids ask you to choose between hearing well and looking like yourself. We refused the trade-off. Legato Frames deliver clinical-grade speech-in-noise performance inside eyewear you'd reach for anyway — built by the team that created Bose Frames and Ray-Ban | Meta.
