Making complex data accessible

Fracture Reality’s virtual collaboration platform, JoinXR, enables non-expert users to browse, manipulate and discuss data – such as building plans, product designs or 3D scans – in an intuitive 3D environment. Enabling more stakeholders to get involved earlier in planning and design processes has significantly extended the potential market within non-engineering sectors (including healthcare, retail and logistics), and within the non-engineering roles and divisions of large organisations.

The company has been generating revenue for over five years, and over the last two years has pivoted from an agency-driven approach to being product-driven. Adopting a SaaS, cloud-hosted model has led to a more affordable and scalable proposition for clients.

"Digital Catapult has been a fantastic connector for us… as evangelists for immersive tech, they have been instrumental in connecting us with other startups driving innovation and with industries benefiting from it."
Rob Minson, CTO, Fracture Reality
