More on Frame

The Frame Metaverse collaboration platform has been steadily growing this year and notably over the past few months.

In February 2023, Frame launched its v3.0 series of updates, which included several new features and improvements, including performance enhancements, multi-language support, and user display options to create a powerful and versatile collaboration tool.

The platform’s 2023 updates help to boost the platform’s user base; this agenda is also supported by the platform’s WebX framework, which operates Frame as a browser-based XR application.

The Frame platform is a rapidly growing platform with a strong team of developers and a vision for providing an interoperable virtual collaboration service.

Additionally, Virbela is the parent company of Frame. Virbela runs its own Metaverse platform for enterprise end-users. The service runs on many of the same core values and technologies that empower Frame. 

The firm is currently working hard with companies to create a united workplace culture on Metaverse platforms. Firms such as eXp Realty, a residential real estate brokerage, use Virbela to host virtual offices supporting roughly 83,000 agents in the US and Canada. The move saves eXp Reality capital on real-world offices and related costs.
