Spatial engineering startup Rypplzz has raised $3 million in seed funding to scale its geospatial technology platform. The funding round was led by KB Partners and follows Rypplzz’s pre-seed funding round in June, bringing its total capital raised to $6.8 million. The company plans to use the funding to further scale its product and expand its team with a focus on technical talent.
Rypplzz’s Interlife platform offers geolocation capabilities that surpass the accuracy of GPS with an algorithm that tracks devices down to six-inch accuracy in three dimensions. The platform enables the programming of digital files to precise coordinates in the real world, allowing for engagement applications in sports, entertainment, security, augmented and virtual reality and retail.
The company’s technology can enhance fan experiences, wayfinding, traffic analytics, geotargeting and crowd management. Gearing up to enter its commercialization phase, Rypplzz has formed partnerships with several brands and venues, including the Tucson Convention Center and a major U.S. sports league for a wave of new deployments.
