What Theoris does

Theoris is a privately-held French professional software services firm founded in 2002 and headquartered at 103 Rue Lafayette in the 10th arrondissement of Paris. The company operates in two complementary Industry 4.0 domains: interactive 3D/XR systems (augmented, virtual, and mixed reality) and embedded platforms / IoT. Its core technology spans Microsoft HoloLens-based mixed reality, real-time 3D rendering via Unity, and embedded software development across Linux, FreeRTOS, Android, RTX, and MicroEJ. The company has retained customer relationships averaging more than ten years across major French industrial groups in aerospace and defense, energy, transportation, automotive, nuclear, construction, and healthcare.

The product portfolio is anchored by the OmniRealities suite — OmniShare for collaborative design, OmniStep for assembly guidance and inspection, and OmniSupport for maintenance and MRO — built on a common platform framework that supports multiple XR devices and shares cross-functional capabilities such as hologram anchoring and real/virtual correlation. These off-the-shelf products are delivered alongside tailor-made development services covering feasibility studies, hardware/software co-design, integration, deployment, and customer-team training. Distribution leverages direct enterprise sales, the Microsoft Store for OmniStep, and co-marketing through Microsoft and Unity partner programs.

The business model is a hybrid of professional services (consulting, custom development, integration, training) and product revenue (licensing and subscriptions on the OmniRealities suite). Pricing is quote-based and contract-driven with multi-year terms typical of enterprise engagements. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise field sales targeting large industrial accounts; lead generation runs through the corporate website contact form, downloadable product flyers, and partner referrals. The customer base is concentrated among French industrial champions — Airbus, Thales, Safran, Naval Group, Nexter, DGA, EDF, Renault, SNCF, Bouygues, Framatome, ANDRA, and Germitec among them — with most retaining the company for over a decade.

Core offering

Theoris delivers industry-focused software solutions across two Industry 4.0 domains: interactive 3D/XR systems (Mixed Reality, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality) and embedded platforms/IoT. The company sells both off-the-shelf products (the OmniRealities suite — OmniShare for collaborative design, OmniStep for smart manufacturing, OmniSupport for maintenance/MRO) and tailor-made software development services covering consulting, feasibility studies, integration, deployment, and training for industrial clients.

Product overview

Theoris is a creator of innovative software solutions offering both off-the-shelf products and tailor-made services in two Industry 4.0 domains: interactive 3D/XR systems and embedded platforms. The product portfolio centers on the OmniRealities line, which covers the entire product lifecycle through three integrated modules: OmniShare for collaborative design, OmniStep for smart manufacturing, and OmniSupport for maintenance and MCO. All three products share a common application framework that enables cross-functional features such as hologram anchoring in mixed reality environments. The products are primarily focused on Microsoft HoloLens while also supporting VR headsets and tablets.
