What we do
We are creating a platform for publishing interactive and dynamic augmented reality content. That means each user has our app installed, and they use it as a viewer for AR content created by other users and companies.
For companies, we are creating tools and an ecosystem where all all you need to do is focus on creating content. For end-users, we are creating a communication platform which is compelling enough that they will use it on its own merits, increasing the likelihood that they will consume business-related content.
Imagine you want to create a Christmas Tree right there in augmented reality. Currently, you’d need to contract a company for that. With Equinox, you can drag and drop the Christmas tree.
If you are a marketing agency, instead of acquiring physical billboards and then not knowing how many people saw it, create a virtual one and track exactly how much visibility it has – it’s addressable outdoor marketing: we can target content to specific users.
If you are a sports brand, you can create a treasure hunt like Pokemon Go where users collect virtual items across the city and get virtual points and rewards.
Our immediate prospects for doing business include marketing agencies, retail chains, publishers, music festivals and tourist boards. Marketing agencies have a pain to seek new ways to acquire users (eyeballs) for their messages. Retailers have a pain to increase engagement with their customers, as well as their loyalty. Publishers need to present new ways to attract advertisers with dynamic content. Music festivals need to navigate people across large venues. Tourist boards need to keep people walking in certain areas.
We do that.
