New self-expression with AI

Who we are

At Shader, our mission is to help creators interact with and create AR, even if they are no-code users. We want to provide voice AR creation for customers as a new option to generate a unique AR experience on their smartphones.

The main idea is to use speech recognition technology and AI to create AR in the app. Users no longer need to try to decipher difficult interfaces and buttons; communication with AR will work by using their voice. Spark your creativity with your voice!

Backed by best investors: Betaworks (AI Camp Augment), OnDeck, Differential Ventures, Greycroft, Mozilla Ventures. Shader was founded by Darya Sesitskaya (AR Platform Design Lead at Snap). The app is currently in private beta. The company has raised $580k.
