AR & VR Development Company

What we build

AR & VR, built around an outcome

Fora Soft provides custom AR and VR development services — augmented reality apps, virtual reality experiences and immersive 3D — for mobile, web, and headsets like Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest. We’ve built AR and VR products since 2005, from 500K-download mobile AR effects to LiDAR-based 3D property tours.

Market context: the global AR/VR market is projected to reach about $693 billion by 2035 (Precedence Research, 2025).

AR effects and editors people actually share

Real-time face and world AR, AI-generated face masks, and VFX video editors.

StreamFog runs 300+ AR lenses as a virtual camera inside OBS, Zoom and Discord; SuperPowerFX passed 500K downloads with 20+ superhero VFX.

Virtual try-on and AR product visualization that lift conversion

AI object recognition overlays 3D products in real settings so shoppers buy with confidence.

Try clothing, makeup and accessories before buying — raising purchase confidence and cutting returns. Our AI Wardrobe app recognizes garment type, fabric and cut on-device with YOLOv8 and CLIP.

Immersive VR tours and 3D visualization

Turn 360 photos into real 3D property meshes users can walk through.

Built with the 360 Scan App, explorable in three modes:

Walking — step through rooms and between floors.
3D Dollhouse — the whole model, all floors at once.
Floor level — the entire floor from above.

Or stream 8K VR headset tours via the Pixvana SPIN Studio engine. We also build 2D visualization — pseudo-3D views stitched from 360° camera photos.

AR vs VR

AR vs VR: which do you need?

AR overlays digital content on the real world; VR replaces it with a simulated one. Here’s how they compare — and where each one fits.

	Augmented Reality (AR)	Virtual Reality (VR)
What it does	Overlays digital content on your real surroundings, in real time.	Immerses you in a fully simulated environment.
Hardware	Phone, tablet or AR glasses — no headset required.	A headset: Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest, or Samsung Galaxy XR.
Best for	Try-on, live-event filters, product visualization, AR navigation.	Property tours, training simulations, immersive games and events.
What we’ve built	SuperPowerFX, Unimerse, AR virtual try-on.	360 Scan App, VR-360 real estate tours.

AI inside AR/VR

How AI powers our AR & VR

Recognition, generative 3D, AI avatars, hints and personalization that make AR and VR useful, not gimmicks.

Object recognition & try-on

Identify real-world objects and overlay accurate 3D models — the engine behind virtual try-on and product visualization.

AR facial recognition and personalization

Facial recognition & personalization

Recognize users and serve personalized AR recommendations — for retail, hospitality and events.

Navigation labels & AI hints

Real-time AR labels and AI-generated hints for routes and landmarks — and immersive AI training in education.

Industries

AR & VR development — common questions

How much does it cost to build an AR or VR app?

Integrating a ready AR/VR component starts around $1,600 (~1 week); a simple standalone app around $3,200; a full custom multi-user app with analytics around $12,800 over ~2 months. Fora Soft gives a fixed estimate within 48 hours of a scoping call.

How long does it take to build an AR/VR app?

A component integration takes about a week, a simple app two to three weeks, and a full custom product around two months or more. Fora Soft ships working builds every sprint, so you test real AR/VR on-device early.

What’s the difference between AR and VR — which do I need?

AR overlays digital content on the real world through a phone or glasses; VR places users inside a fully simulated space through a headset. Fora Soft helps you pick during a free architecture review, based on your users and budget.

Which devices and headsets do you develop for?

iOS, Android, desktop, the web (WebXR), and today’s headsets — Apple Vision Pro on visionOS, Samsung Galaxy XR on Android XR, and Meta Quest 3 and 3S — plus AR smart glasses and haptics. We’ve shipped mobile AR with 500K+ downloads and 8K VR tours.

Do you build for Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest?

Yes — with Unity (PolySpatial) and RealityKit/visionOS for Apple Vision Pro, and OpenXR for Meta Quest and Samsung Galaxy XR (Android XR), plus ARKit and ARCore on mobile. We match the platform to your audience rather than shipping one app to every headset.

Can you build AR for live events or e-commerce virtual try-on?

Yes — both are specialties. We built Unimerse (5.0★), a festival AR platform with iBeacon collectibles, and AR try-on that overlays clothing and makeup with AI object recognition to lift purchase confidence and cut returns.

What technology and SDKs do you use for AR/VR?

Unity (AR Foundation, PolySpatial), Unreal Engine, ARKit, ARCore and RealityKit/visionOS, with OpenXR and WebXR for cross-platform and browser AR. Computer vision via OpenCV, PyTorch, YOLOv8 and CLIP; on-device TensorFlow Lite; and the Pixvana SDK for 8K VR.

How is AI combined with AR and VR?

AI object and facial recognition, AR navigation labels with AI-generated hints, and personalized recommendations. In education, AI plus AR/VR powers immersive simulations that improve retention; in retail it powers accurate try-on.

Do I own the source code and IP?

Yes — all of it: source code, designs, 3D assets and accounts. Fora Soft works full-cycle and in-house and has finished every project since 2005, so there’s no lock-in.

Can you take over and finish an existing AR/VR project?

Yes. Start with a free code audit: we review your codebase, flag risks, and propose a plan. We’ve maintained multi-year products like SuperPowerFX (8+ years on the App Store) and relaunched live apps before.
