AATE VR

What AATE VR does

AATE VR (legal entity AATE VR ApS) is a Danish VR software development company headquartered in Aarhus, Denmark, founded in 2015. The company builds virtual reality applications targeted primarily at the healthcare sector, spanning medical and nursing student simulation, CPR and AED training, pediatric ADHD therapy, multisensory calming therapy, and stroke rehabilitation. Its product portfolio includes SundSim VR (a healthcare simulation training platform), CPR Simulator (a CPR/AED training application also distributed via the SideQuestVR marketplace), Breathing Space (a VR therapy tool for children with ADHD), VR Snoezelen (a multisensory calming experience for therapeutic environments), VRiAT (an arm training application for stroke patients), and previously Gonio VR (a physiotherapy rehabilitation product spun off as a separate entity in 2018).

The underlying technology is custom VR content and experience design built on commercially available VR hardware, with products structured as simulation, training, or therapy experiences rather than as general-purpose tooling. Several products were co-developed with named clinical partners, including Hammel Neurocenter, Fenrishus, AscendFys, and First-8, indicating a co-development model with public-sector healthcare institutions.

AATE VR monetizes through custom VR development engagements, project-based work, licensing, and subscription arrangements with Danish public-sector buyers (municipalities, regions, and hospitals), supplemented by direct distribution of the CPR Simulator via the SideQuestVR marketplace. The company operates with 1-10 employees, has not publicly disclosed any external funding rounds, and has historically pursued a sales-led, direct-partnership go-to-market focused on the Nordic healthcare market.
