Company profile
researched Aug 2026Hologram (Hologram Labs) operates a digital avatar platform that lets individuals, brands and communities appear as virtual characters across video calls, livestreams and content creation. Its stated use cases include VTuber avatars, digital fashion, content creation, livestreaming and gaming, with users able to join video calls or streams as a chosen character from a webcam on "one click, any device."
The product line comprises Hologram Studio, a desktop application distributed for Mac (Apple M1 and Intel chips) and PC; Holo Desktop, which turns a user into a digital avatar inside Zoom, OBS and other desktop applications; Holo Extension, a browser extension that overlays an avatar on video in the browser; and Holoworld, an application for bringing characters to life with AI. The platform also promotes character interaction features, including chatting with characters, using them as a personal assistant, and playing with them in games such as Fortnite and VRChat.
The company positions its ecosystem around four audiences: IP and brand owners seeking to enable user-generated content around their characters; artists who create or sell 2D and 3D characters, wearables and assets integrated across the Hologram ecosystem; content creators building a virtual identity for videos and livestreams on Twitch, YouTube and TikTok; and PFP NFT communities bringing their profile-picture characters to life.
Business model
Hologram distributes consumer-facing avatar software (a downloadable desktop studio, a desktop avatar tool and a browser extension) alongside a web application, and supports an ecosystem in which artists create or sell 2D and 3D characters, wearables and assets that integrate across its products.
