Problem or Opportunity
E-commerce faces persistent challenges:
Lack of immersive, interactive product experiences reduces engagement and increases return rates (up to 30% of all purchases).
Increasing demand for personalized and configurable products in digital environments.
High costs and inefficiencies in creating and maintaining product media (e.g., photoshoots, manual 3D modeling).
Opportunity: The global augmented and mixed reality market is growing at an 79.2% compound annual growth rate, with the total addressable market (TAM) expected to reach €994.25 billion by 2030. XR Upgrade is positioned to lead this transformation by providing innovative 3D and XR solutions, enabling businesses to enhance customer engagement and reduce operational inefficiencies
