Livestream showings to overseas buyers with Meta smart glasses over WhatsApp and record consultations with Plaud
Carlos Melendez, founder of the Melendez Group powered by Keyes, in Florida Realtor magazine
Per Florida Realtor, he uses Meta smart glasses to livestream showings to clients via WhatsApp: "With a tap, he initiates a video call, allowing clients abroad to direct the tour in real time." When a buyer asks about flooring, the glasses' visual search captures an image and searches the web for likely material matches, "which Melendez then verifies." During listing appointments and buyer consultations he uses AI transcription tools such as Plaud to record conversations, "always with permission." AI summaries help keep requirements from being "lost in translation or buried in memory." He also uses AI translation built into wearable tech (tool not named).

The problem
He works with global buyers who are abroad. Requirements from listing appointments and buyer consultations, like a bedroom facing a certain direction or ADA accessibility for a family member, can get lost, especially when juggling time zones.
What happened
Florida Realtor calls the note-taking "a safeguard against dropped balls, especially when juggling time zones." No figures or sales results are given. His advice is to avoid "shiny object syndrome" and to ask: "Does this tool save time and improve efficiency, or does it add complexity?" He is the same Carlos Melendez whose ChatGPT business plan is in our library.

How to set it up yourself
- What the Melendez Group does: Carlos Melendez livestreams showings to overseas buyers over WhatsApp with Meta smart glasses so they can direct the tour. He uses the glasses' visual search for likely material matches, which he then verifies. He records listing appointments and buyer consultations with Plaud, always with permission, and uses AI summaries to keep track of requirements.
- Before any meeting or showing call, ask the client whether you may record, and note their answer. If they say no, take notes by hand. Follow your state's rules on recording consent.
- After each meeting, use the prompt below on the transcript. Check the AI summary against the recording, especially must-haves like room orientation or accessibility needs, before you copy them into your client file.
- On a live tour, treat any material match the glasses suggest as a lead only. Verify it with the seller, the listing documents or a professional before telling the buyer.
