Schemata

Schemata, formerly known as Traverse3D, is a San Francisco-based company founded in 2022 by James Brown, Huy Nguyen, and Quin Roberts. The founding team is comprised of engineers and operators from Stanford and Berkeley who have experience across the U.S. Military and the government sector. The company is positioned at the intersection of artificial intelligence and 3D simulation, developing spatial intelligence applications for a variety of sectors.

The firm's core business revolves around providing immersive simulation environments designed for operational planning and training. Schemata targets clients in the defense, enterprise, oil and gas, and infrastructure sectors. Its business model focuses on transforming 2D images or physical assets into photorealistic, interactive 3D environments. This service enables organizations to create high-fidelity training modules at a significantly lower cost and in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods. For instance, the company claims its process is ten times faster and 85% more cost-effective.

The platform leverages AI-driven 3D reconstruction to generate these detailed virtual worlds. A key feature is the AI-powered scene analysis, which allows users to interact with and query the 3D environments using text, voice, or visual commands for instant understanding and navigation. The system can also integrate technical manuals and other documents to provide context-aware responses within the simulation. By offering these tools, Schemata enables clients to enhance training effectiveness, automate a significant portion of customer support inquiries, and derive actionable analytics to refine operational processes. The company has secured $5 million in a Seed Round and is backed by investors including Alumni Ventures, Owl Ventures, and Plug and Play Tech Center.
