vSpatial: Bring your Office into Virtual and Augmented Reality | Wefunder
We love technology, but it's supposed to enable more effective productivity, provide better connections to others, and allow us to achieve it all from anywhere. Instead of improving our lives, it tends to complicate and inundate; we deserve better. We need technology that sustains our careers and our personal lives, and we shouldn't have to sacrifice one to be successful at the other
Consider the "remote work" movement, where you have full control of your work/life schedule. You could have a productive morning then decide to hit the gym or have lunch with your kids at school – possibilities that don't exist when you work 45 minutes away. And yet the video conferencing tools and messaging apps, that remote workers are forced to rely on, simply can't provide the kind of presence needed to genuinely connect with a team or its company culture. If those relationships become stagnant, you may end up becoming devalued, while the more visible colleagues may gain favor and promotions in your absence
In 2015, when a group of ex-Cisco and Microsoft execs witnessed the vast capabilities of VR and AR, they started to connect the dots. Could an entire workplace become digital? Why not wrap the video conferencing app, group chat app, all your monitors and your office space into one? Can a virtual environment sufficiently connect you with your work and with others? Could such a platform become mobile enough to require only a VR/AR headset? Most importantly, can the adoption of this technology help us improve and balance our lives?
Founded in early 2016, quickly moved from idea to reality. Armed with our bold vision to “Help Humanity Work from Anywhere”, we sought out and found like-minded investors who invested $3.3 million to help bring to the world. In the fall of 2017, became a free early access offering in the Oculus and Steam Stores. vSpatial vSpatial vSpatial
The message was clear – people are ready to work in VR. Within months, we had thousands in our early access program providing feedback and encouragement. In 2018, we added 20,000 to that early access program, and hosted over 4,000 VR meetings in 107 countries. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive:
“The ultimate computer for me is the mixed reality world.” Satya Nadella, CEO, Microsoft
“In a few years, we’re not going to be able to imagine our lives without AR.” Tim Cook, CEO, Apple
“It is much better than a video conference...you can do work together.”(When asked about using VR for work meetings) Mark Zuckerberg, Founder and Chairman, Facebook
Our goal is to make the biggest splash we possibly can with our product launch this summer. The money will help fund the marketing of our product online, as well as the many face-to-face opportunities we'll have this summer to show off our platform. Additionally, the success of this campaign will give us the ability to continue to pay our developers to do this incredible work.We've built this platform for people like ourselves, investors like you, and all of the teams we've supported so far. With the success of this WeFunder campaign we'll finally be able to take this platform to the rest of the world, and since this will be the last opportunity to invest in a pre-revenue vSpatial we hope you’ll join us on our journey!
