Supermedium
VR space of immersive utilities
We are building Supermedium, a VR platform for people to read books and comics, watch videos, view art, browse the Web, send messages, and access social media. Our product creates a comfortable, focused virtual environment where users can have larger and more flexible screens in VR, even while lying down, replacing traditional flat screens with a more immersive experience.
We live and work in San Francisco, CA. The company would remain based here after YC.
San Francisco is where we're building the product because it's where VR developers, early adopters, and hardware advances are concentrated. Being here lets us stay close to emerging technology and user feedback.
