LaunchPad
A VR-powered physical therapy platform that transforms pediatric balance and motor skill exercises into addictive games.

The Wow Moment
A 6-year-old with cerebral palsy who usually cries through therapy sessions is laughing, fully engaged, and unknowingly performing 50 consecutive balance repetitions because they're 'helping their character cross the canyon'—and their parents receive a notification that their child just hit a milestone that typically takes 3 months to achieve, in just 3 weeks.
