Final Day to Invest in This Pre-IPO Company at $0.66/share

How do you follow 4,000% valuation growth? By preparing for an IPO. 

That’s what Immersed did, reserving the NASDAQ ticker $IMRS. And the real opportunity for investors is now, before public markets do.

Why? Immersed changed the game in AR/VR, developing the Meta Quest store’s most popular productivity app. More than 1.5M people, including Fortune 500 teams, already use it up to 60 hours a week.

But that’s not all. Immersed’s soon-to-be-released Visor headset has 2M more pixels than Apple’s Vision Pro for 70% less money and with 70% less weight. No wonder they’re projecting $71M in first-year sales.

Here’s how they’re redefining the $250B+ future of work:

  • Breakthrough Platform: Immersed built the first full-stack remote productivity system, combining immersive AR/VR software, an AI assistant that works alongside you, and its own lightweight Visor headset to replace the traditional desktop.

  • Massive Momentum: Immersed is preparing to ship Visor, its first productivity-focused headset, with 75,000+ already on the waitlist. Meanwhile, its AI assistant, Curator, is rolling out new features to deepen user engagement and adoption.

  • Opportunity: You can join 6,000+ pre-IPO investors who have already secured pre-IPO shares in Immersed’s growth.

They have partnerships in place with Qualcomm and Samsung. Executives and founders from Intel, Reddit, and Sailpoint are shareholders. You can be, too. But there’s no time to waste. You have until TONIGHT at 11:59 PM PT to invest in Immersed at $0.66/share.
