Company profile
researched Aug 2026Cluster operates a virtual space platform, accessible under the domain cluster.mu, that lets users take part in gatherings, events and live performances remotely. The service is built around the concept of "eliminating unnecessary movement", allowing people to attend and participate from wherever they are rather than travelling to a physical venue. The cluster application is available across multiple device types, including smartphones, PCs and VR head-mounted displays.
Alongside the consumer application, Cluster distributes the Cluster Creator Kit, a Unity-based toolset with which creators build virtual spaces and game worlds and submit them to the platform, after which the worlds can be entered from the cluster app on phone, PC or VR hardware. The Creator Kit is supported by official documentation in English and Japanese, a template project for starting a world, the Cluster Creators Guide aimed at users new to Unity, official blogs and accounts publishing creator tips, and an official community where creators can interact with other users and the cluster development team. Cluster also runs a help center covering platform features such as custom avatar expressions, 6-point tracking and screen sharing.
Business model
Cluster provides a multi-device virtual space application in which users attend events and live performances, combined with a creator ecosystem: the Cluster Creator Kit lets third-party creators build worlds in Unity and submit them for publication on the platform.
