Unified reality headset to live between worlds

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We are building a reality headset that lets users move fluidly between virtual and real environments. Unlike existing VR devices that isolate you, ours is designed to let you dive into virtual worlds and return with new value, blending presence and utility at once.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live and work in Mountain View and San Francisco, and the company will remain based in the Bay Area after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

The Bay Area offers access to top talent and investors in VR and hardware, which we need. Being close to tech hubs and our team supports fast iteration and recruitment.
