Holoscribe is a successful early-stage tech startup setting new benchmarks for deepening online engagement and converting digital audiences via its easy-to-use SaaS products that help create powerful interactive VR, AR and 360° web experiences. Focal Labs founded, built, launched and continue to drive this fast growing startup that is already used by some of the UK's top media and online brands – including the BBC, EA Sports FIFA18, Amnesty International, Virgin Media, Perform Media, Goal.com, Activision Destiny2, Trinity Mirror, Liverpool Echo, Endemol, Celebrity Big Brother, and Save the Children.
I cannot be more thankful to Ben and the team for their great service and collaboration over the last two years. Focal Labs have been our co-creators and technical partners for the Amnesty Decoders platform. Focal Labs provided invaluable planning, design, development and help in shaping our user strategy to create a platform that ultimately engaged tens of thousands of users in ground breaking human rights research. This has brought amazing value to our organisation.

Focal Labs founded, built the team and managed (2013 to 2015) this now-global startup, whose product is used by the world's top digital storytellers and publishers – including the BBC, the Guardian, The Times, The Financial Times, and Hearst Magazines, as well as organisations throughout Europe, Australia and the US. Shorthand empowers content creators to publish beautiful and engaging multimedia stories on the web, without needing developers.
"Focal Labs' insight has proven to be invaluable. They have an incredible ability to get into the mind of the customer and have advised us on new product developments and product reinvention, from brand positioning and UX, through to internal workflows, back-end systems, internal business cases and stakeholder management. Focal Labs are now leading us on a journey to release 4 new products to market in the next 6 months."
