What Chaac Technologies does

Chaac Technologies is a privately held Canadian emerging-technology company headquartered in Montreal, Quebec, founded in 2014. The company builds immersive technology solutions for workplace modernization, with its flagship product being FireGuard VR, a virtual reality fire-safety training platform developed in collaboration with experienced firefighters. FireGuard VR delivers hyper-realistic 3D environments replicating client facilities (warehouses, offices, kitchens) and includes 24 emergency scenarios across multiple difficulty levels, interactive step-by-step safety modules, multilingual support in English, French, and Spanish, and a performance analytics system that tracks metrics such as fire progression, extinguisher usage, and simulated smoke inhalation. Deployment packages include Meta Quest 3 headsets, controllers, and carrying cases.

Beyond FireGuard VR, the company has expanded into adjacent immersive offerings: Military Immersive Training, Custom VR Training, and the SHARP situational awareness module, plus drone-enabled services covering aerial surveying, photogrammetry/3D modeling, and geospatial data integration. In November 2025, the company publicly demonstrated an AI-powered mine detection capability at Canadian Forces Base Gagetown, signaling an early move into computer-vision-based defense applications.

Chaac operates a sales-led go-to-market motion, combining enterprise sales engagements (demos, specialist consultations, and site-specific customization services) with a direct e-commerce storefront reselling VR hardware such as Meta Quest 3 bundles ($1,450 CAD) and Cleanbox CX1 sanitization units ($4,300 CAD). Target customer segments span mining and construction, industrial and manufacturing, transportation hubs, healthcare facilities, office complexes, first responders, and the military, with no named enterprise customers disclosed in the input data. The company is founder-led, with Guillaume Nepveu serving as Founder & CEO and Maxime Phaneuf as Head of R&D, and reports a headcount of 1–10 employees. No funding rounds, revenue figures, or institutional investors are disclosed.
