Two years ago, we backed @AutoVRse when enterprise spatial computing was still finding its footing. Earlier this year, we doubled down.
So what did we see then? And what made us reinvest?

A world class engine to help some of the world's largest enterprises deploy AR/VR using AI, modernize how they train and upskill their workforce. That's @AutoVRse for you.
When we first met them, they were building in VR and gaming. There was a lot of discussion around the utility of mixed reality, simulation technology and how game tech could be applied far beyond entertainment. Today, here we are.
It turns out those same capabilities for simulation and rendering virtual environments are incredibly valuable when you need to create state of the art tech for training a semiconductor technician or teaching someone how to safely perform a high-risk industrial task.
They built an end to end tech stack at 1/10th the cost AND while replacing global legacy solutions!
Entrepreneurship is hard. But this team functions at a super human level of persistence and patience. Fantastic to collaborate with our friends at MK Ventures @SingularityAMC@ashish_nathani
For Concept Artist Andrew, XR opened new doors to artistic explorations that would have never happened if he had stuck around in traditional mediums.
Let's have a look at how he evolved with the medium as an artist while conforming to traditional practices.

Breaking into #XR as an Experience Designer or LXD?
Swathi highlights a core truth: XR lets us safely show real consequences, making learning stick. And balancing over-guiding vs under-guiding so users stay engaged without feeling lost.
VR back!
Anmol from the VRseBuilder team breaks down how he created the new in-VR Menu UI shader — aiming for a cleaner, modern, glass-morphism look that works across VR environments.
It was also his first time using AI to create custom shaders.
New hires struggle with complex machinery despite detailed explanations from trainers.
"Watch and learn" doesn't cut it anymore.
VR training lets workers practice hands-on, make mistakes safely, and build real confidence—all without touching expensive gear or creating risks.
