What Work Window does

Work Window is a Brisbane, Australia-based private company that has built a VR career exploration platform offering immersive job shadowing experiences across 24 careers, targeting Australian secondary schools, universities, workforce development organizations, and individual consumers. The company was founded in 2017 by Cam Martin, is bootstrapped with no disclosed venture capital funding, and operates with a small team of 1-10 employees headquartered at L6 / 200 Adelaide Street, Brisbane. The company currently operates exclusively within Australia.

The platform runs on Meta Quest 2 (formerly Oculus Quest 2), Pico Neo 3, and Meta Quest 1 hardware, paired with a companion desktop content management application. A sub-product, the Job Interview Simulator, uses performance analytics tracking metrics such as eye contact, speech volume, pace, and filler words to deliver feedback on interview practice. Career experiences cover roles including engineers, accountants, carpenters, park rangers, and firefighters. Content is co-created through partnerships with more than 30 Australian industry bodies and employers, including Lendlease, CSIRO Data61, Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES), Queensland Urban Utilities, and Apprenticeship Support Australia.

Work Window monetizes through annual B2B SaaS subscriptions across three tiers (Basic at 800 sessions / 1 headset, Standard at 2,000 sessions / 5 headsets, and Pro at 10,000 sessions / 35 headsets), alongside a direct-to-consumer subscription tier for personal accounts accessed via app.workwindow.com.au, and custom VR content partnerships. The company serves customers including Lourdes Hill College, St Laurence's College, RMIT, WOD TAFE, Gippsland East LLEN, CoAct, APM, NRL PA, and Scope Australia. User-engagement metrics cited by the company include 93% comprehension, 91% engagement, 88% focus, and 86% confidence.
