What Mawari does

Mawari operates a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) purpose-built for spatial computing, delivering real-time 3D and XR content to AR/VR devices including Apple Vision Pro and Meta Quest 3. Founded in 2017, the company replaces traditional centralized CDN architecture with a distributed node network and Web3-native token economics (buyback-and-burn) to reduce latency and infrastructure cost for immersive content delivery. The technical stack centers on a proprietary Spatial Streaming SDK, three granted patents and eleven pending applications covering 3D streaming methods, and infrastructure partnerships including a 2025 alliance with Caldera to power AI-powered immersive experiences.

The company monetizes through three streams: enterprise SDK licensing on a subscription basis, a planned node license sale scheduled for Q4 2024 to decentralize and scale the network, and usage-based infrastructure services analogous to CDN pricing for immersive workloads. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales, with approximately 40 clients including KDDI, Netflix, and BMW across telecommunications, entertainment/media, and automotive verticals. Operations span engineering offices in Los Altos and San Jose, California, alongside a Tokyo registered entity, with stated expansion priorities in Asia and the Americas.

Mawari has raised approximately $17.4 million in disclosed funding across multiple rounds, anchored by a $6.5 million seed in February 2023 (Blockchange Ventures, Decasonic) and a $10.8 million strategic round in September 2024 (Anfield LTD, Borderless Capital, 1kx, with Samsung Next, Animoca Brands Japan, and Draper Dragon participating). The company is positioning within the broader DePIN market opportunity that Borderless Capital sizes at over $2.2 trillion. Leadership comprises founder and CEO Luis Oscar Ramirez Solorzano, co-founder and CTO Aleksandr Borisov, and co-founder and CBO Takeo Yatabe.

Revenue model

1. Spatial Streaming SDK Licensing: License fees from enterprise customers using the Spatial Streaming SDK for developing spatial computing applications. Enterprise clients like KDDI, Netflix, and BMW represent revenue from technology licensing.
2. Node License Sales: Planned Q4 2024 node license sale to decentralize and expand the Mawari Network infrastructure. Node operators will pay for licenses to participate in the decentralized physical infrastructure network.
3. Infrastructure Services: Revenue from providing decentralized infrastructure for 3D content streaming and spatial computing, similar to CDN services but optimized for immersive content delivery.
