In this episode, AREA Executive Director Mark Sage chats with Alicia Caputo, CEO of Avrio Analytics and Founder of SpaXial, a startup that produces a 3D development environment.

Alicia shares how her team is redefining enterprise AR by leveraging AI to drive tangible business outcomes. With roots in public safety and defense, SpaXial’s technology integrates real-time data into 3D environments—enabling decision-makers to interact with critical information spatially and intuitively.
From situational awareness in smart cities to mission-critical planning, Alicia emphasizes that AR isn’t just about augmentation—it’s about action. She also dives into the challenges of scaling AR solutions in traditionally risk-averse sectors and how SpaXial addresses them through modular, standards-based platforms.

A passionate advocate for cross-industry collaboration, Alicia explains why Avrio Analytics joined the AREA and what the ecosystem must do to move from prototypes to production. This is a must-listen for anyone building AR to solve high-stakes problems. Sign up for the beta at SpaXial.ai.
