2. The Problem Hololink Solves

The Problem Hololink Solves

City centres, high streets and shopping districts across Europe are losing footfall. Online shopping, hybrid working and changing habits mean fewer people spontaneously explore physical spaces. When people do visit, they follow familiar routes — missing dozens of shops, cafés, cultural sites and local businesses.
Trade associations, handelsforeninger, cityforeninger, retail chains, tourism offices and museums need a cost-effective way to give visitors a reason to explore — to walk further, discover more and return more often.
Existing solutions are either too generic, too expensive or too technically complex to implement and maintain without specialist staff.

Hololink's Solution to the Problem

An AI-powered no-code WebAR platform that allows these organisations to build, customise and launch immersive AR experiences — treasure hunts, city walks, in-store games, cultural heritage overlays — quickly, affordably, and without any developer or technical resource.
