First treadmills, now STATIONARY BIKES! We are excited to announce that with the release of 4.0 this Thursday, November 23rd, Octonic will support stationary bikes. Just like our treadmill option, our bike option wirelessly connects the Quest 2, 3, and Pro with bluetooth enabled FTMS bikes, allowing users to bike through our library of worlds. The speed of the world will synchronize with the speed at which you pedal, allowing for seamless and safe riding. In addition, you’ll be able to control the resistance completely within virtual reality and push yourself to your physical limits.

Also new in this update is a revamped UI/UX that significantly simplifies the wireless connection process to both treadmills and stationary bikes. Now, you’ll be able to connect your headset with your fitness machine within seconds (just like you would connect your phone) and enjoy our fitness worlds with less friction.

Enjoy our new version of Octonic with a limited-time 25% BLACK FRIDAY DISCOUNT, running through next Wednesday. Use Code OCTONIC25 to redeem your offer.

To commemorate the 4.0 launch, users who log in or sign up by 4:00 PM UTC on 11/30/2023 can enjoy FREE access to our full Sky Island trail with their bike or treadmill for ONE WEEK!

We had the pleasure of being invited to NYVR last week, where our CEO, Ilya Polokhin, presented our company to an audience of VR professionals and enthusiasts. Also joining Ilya in presenting that evening were leaders from across the industry, including Yvonne Grzenkowicz of Animation Nights of New York, Ryan Canuel of Petricore, and David Lobser of both Light Clinic and VisitationsVR. We offer our thanks to DJ Smith of The Glimpse Group for this opportunity and for organizing the event.

With the Apple Vision Pro set to come out in early 2024, our team is at work to make sure that Octonic is ready at release. Over the course of the summer, we’ve made amazing progress in developing the app, according to Apple’s specifications. This involves giving users the freedom to view into our virtual worlds through windows in the real world, allowing them to adjust the size of the window according to their preferences. In this way, users will be connected with both the real and virtual worlds as they exercise.

The Apple Vision Pro will be a game-changer, not only for the XR space, but also for our company. With its release, we expect the industry to accelerate in growth, and we are poised to capitalize on this opportunity. With one day until our campaign’s close, you have limited time to join us on our journey to revolutionize the fitness industry. As the XR space expands, your investment will both support our effort and put you in an advantageous position as the industry hits an inflection point. Invest by 11:59PM PT tomorrow before time runs out: https://t.co/4DXSih1McB

We are excited to announce that Octonic has been accepted to PICO Lab and is now available to anyone with a PICO 4 headset. Our team conducted in-depth tests over the summer to optimally port and build the product for the PICO’s ecosystem before submitting the app for review with ByteDance. Now, anyone with a PICO 4 headset can find and download Octonic by searching for us in their library.

Users will have the exact same features, running worlds, and functionality as they have with our Quest version, with the additional benefit of having a smaller design, due to PICO 4’s pancake lenses, as well as a lighter weight. As a result, users can have an even more comfortable exercise experience as they get in shape.

Our team is focused on expanding distribution of Octonic across the world, and availability in PICO’s ecosystem is a critical move in this endeavor. Currently, PICO 4s are available in Asia and Europe, which will allow us to grow our footprint in those regions. And we hope to do the same in North America once ByteDance releases the headset here.

Looking forward, we are planning to make Octonic available across all major platforms. Both the Apple Vision Pro and HTC Vive XR Elite are next in line for us, but we expect numerous additional entrants to come to market in the coming years. Your investment will be essential to helping us build a top-of-the-line experience for all major headsets. With your support, we will be able to build out our world-class development team and ensure that we are able to ship a quality product for all platforms. But time is running out with only six days left in the campaign, so invest today to help us on our journey: https://t.co/gieSAHp0r1

Octonic is continuing to expand our social running capabilities. Our team has been developing a coaching platform on top of our spectator mode which will allow instructors to view class participants in VR, coach them, and monitor their progress. Octonic will not just be a social experience, but also a platform where group running classes can take place remotely, all within VR. We are not only building a fitness app, but a community of fitness enthusiasts.

Connecting people through fitness in XR is one of our main objectives and we have big aspirations to elevate our social features. In order to accomplish our goals, we will need your support, which will be critical in further developing and marketing Octonic. With less than 12 days until the close of the campaign, time is running out to partner with us on our journey. We are offering numerous investment rewards, including bonus shares and free subscriptions to our app, among others. Invest today to partner with us as we make fitness more enjoyable and social: https://t.co/vVbX56JSWQ

Soon, you won’t need a headset to observe VR exercising with Octonic. Our development team has been working on a screen mirroring mode that allows users to spectate other runners in VR on external devices like mobile phones and TV screens. This will allow others to watch your workouts and competitions, without needing to be in VR. We are getting this feature ready for use in gyms, so races can be observed by other gym goers, but you’ll be able to use clips from your workouts for streaming and on social media as well. In the end, your exercise routine will be a shareable experience with anyone, even if they don’t have access to a VR headset. Check out a clip of what we’re working on below.

Our team continues to build out our product with a shoestring budget and we have many more concepts that we’d like to pursue. But in order to accomplish that, we will need your support to provide us with critical resources to catalyze our growth. With less than 15 days left in the campaign, time is running out to not only partner with us on our journey, but also get access to rewards like free Octonic memberships, as well as rebates for the purchases of Quest headsets and certain treadmill equipment.

We have been fortunate to receive a growing amount of media coverage for our work across numerous publications, including VRScout and Mixed Reality News, but we’ve often found that the best way to convey our passion for what we do has been through our podcast interviews. This year, some of our core team members had the good fortune of being invited to podcasts, including VR Fitness Insider, hosted by Preston Lewis and Ryan DeLuca, and XR Magazine, hosted by Diana Olynick. We greatly enjoyed discussing our backgrounds, our stories of how we met, and our outlooks on the future of XR, among other topics.

We hope that hearing us in our own words gives a clearer sense of not only who we are, but also what gets us so excited about Octonic, fitness, and the potential for XR to make an impact on our world. You can check out a video from our VR Fitness Insider interview below, and check out the comments section for a video of our XR Magazine interview.

Our passion for Octonic has carried us to a stage where we’ve built a successful product that’s getting rave reviews, with just a small budget. We have big plans to take the product to the next level, but need your support in order to make our vision come to life. With only 19 days left in the campaign, time is running out to join us on our journey, so invest today to help Octonic reach our full potential: https://t.co/r08uX844QK

Since Octonic’s early days, we have been collaborating with our long-standing partner, NoblePro, in developing and testing our app, while ensuring that it delivers a truly immersive experience. Our partnership has resulted in the first ever fully integrated treadmill mode that not only synchronizes controls, but also introduces a VR treadmill model which can be calibrated with the real world one. So when people reach out to their VR treadmills, they will touch their real NoblePro treadmills in complete synchronicity. We also have actively promoted each other’s products with joint appearances at major conferences. For example, we shared a booth at the UK National Running Show to demo an early version of our app to active running enthusiasts, which you can see in this video.

Our NoblePro partnership is just the first of many. While Octonic currently connects wirelessly with 40 treadmill brands, we are in active discussions with numerous treadmill manufacturers to not only offer a fully integrated treadmill mode for their ecosystems, but build a customized and tailored version of Octonic for their brands. In order to do this, we will need your support to further build our team and develop our product. With 22 days until the end of our campaign, time is running out to join us on our journey.

Building a VR app for fitness treadmills was not an easy feat for us at Octonic, and part of the reason for that was the need to build an interactive app design that’s both intuitive and simple to use. Our team spent years coming up with just the right UI/UX. With our proprietary, mixed reality interface, users are able to create a passthrough viewbox into the real world that allows them to see the treadmill’s physical controls and moving belt while exercising. And if they feel the need to go into full passthrough mode, they can do that with the push of a (virtual) button. See below for a brief demonstration.

As we continue to build the app, we are actively listening to feedback from our community about our UI/UX and implementing their suggestions. For example, we’ve added the option to hide the running avatar for a more unobstructed view of running worlds. In addition, we’ve implemented a swappable hand-tracking/controller interface that allows users to navigate the app using either input method (we still require running without controllers for comfort).

Innovation is the driving force behind our work. We have a host of other innovative ideas that we would like to pursue, but in order to do so, we’ll need your investment in this campaign. And with less than a month before we wrap up, time is running out for you to join us on this journey. Invest today to help us bring our innovative ideas to fruition, and help us revolutionize fitness: https://t.co/tawFUoygcN

Octonic currently wirelessly connects with 40 treadmill brands, allowing users to adjust treadmill controls, including start/stop and speed, from within VR, but we are not stopping there. During the last week of July, some of our core team members embarked on a Midwest roadshow to meet with numerous treadmill manufacturers at their headquarters, with the goal of finalizing partnerships for Octonic’s integration into their product ecosystems. We had extremely productive meetings with company leaders at all our visits, which included facilitating product demos to show how our app would work with their treadmill products. Moving forward, we have a number of deliverables for each manufacturer we met with, and hope to finalize agreements in the near future.

Partnerships are just one piece of the puzzle for our company’s growth, which will also require scaling up our development team to keep innovating, in addition to augmenting our marketing effort to ensure that more potential customers know about us. But in order to accomplish these objectives, we need additional resources. With your support, we will be able to take Octonic to new heights and truly make an impact on the fitness industry.

Our team at Octonic is lucky to have a loyal and growing group of believers in our product, which includes many of you who have invested in our company. One of our earliest believers is Waarde Capital, which led a $500,000 early seed investment in 2022. Since then, they’ve been one of our closest advisors.

Waarde has invested over $3 billion in over 100 companies across 27 industries (see select portfolio companies above), so they have seen just about everything in the startup world. We were thus incredibly excited when they decided to invest in us.

We are thankful for the support that Waarde and our community have given us, but we have to keep the momentum going to help us reach our goal. Invest today to help us make fitness fun, enjoyable, and social for everyone: https://t.co/0H8NFITXXw
