Kumospace Raises $3M for its Immersive Video Chatting Platform That Mimics Real World Interactions
Zoom fatigue is real; so much so that researchers at the Virtual Human Interaction Lab out of Stanford (yes, this is a real institute) have come up with Zoom Exhaustion and Fatigue Scale. A growing number of startups have entered the space with creative twists on how to make video chatting more engaging. Kumospace has built an immersive video chat platform that focuses on spatiality that traditional video chatting platforms do not offer. Taking elements inspired by the gaming industry, Kumospace offers a video chatting experience that is more reflective of real-world interactions where multiple conversations are going on in the same space simultaneously. This functionality serves groups wells and can be used for video calls, virtual happy hours, meetups, or even holiday parties. AlleyWatch caught up with Cofounder and CEO Brett Martin to learn more about the future of video calls, the inspiration for the venture, and latest round of funding led by Boldstart Ventures.
