The company
Metagravity is an innovative deep-tech firm that's reshaping the boundaries of virtual worlds and games.
Modern game engines and servers cap out at around 100 players in a self-consistent instance, but the future of online games and metaverse experiences demands far more. Think, tens of thousands to millions of players and AI avatars!
Our client is overcoming these limitations, crafting distributed computing infrastructure that scales limitlessly, enabling creators to conceive truly vibrant, immersive worlds.
The company has already raised over $10m from leading investors and have a host of Tier 1 client evaluating their technology. The founding team are serial entrepreneurs with deep-rooted experience in distributed systems, supercomputing, game engine development and AAA game production.
The founder, Rashid Mansoor recently discussed his vision on a really interesting podcast: https://bit.ly/metgravity-podc...
