Octi began as an AR-focused social app where users could utilize augmented reality to collect and create content with digital collectibles and earn in-app tokens.

Now, Octi is set to launch their newest web3 social network, Ultraviolet, which will make owning, earning, and creating on the blockchain simple and fun for anyone.

Justin Fuisz, the Co-Founder and CEO of Ultraviolet, took developing and creating to the next level by evolving Octi, an AR-focused app, into Ultraviolet, an all-in-one social web3 platform created by and for the community. 

The app will revolutionize the way much of Gen Z thinks about NFTs by eliminating the roadblock of complicated buying processes and transaction fees. 

In response to the new changes coming to the social marketplace, Fuisz describes exactly why this new app is going to revolutionize the way Gen Z thinks about NFTs. “We remove the barrier of entry for many new users interested in trading and buying NFTs,” said co-founder and CEO Justin Fuisz. 

“It's important that the future involves an accessible cross chain platform in a social marketplace made simple enough for anyone to use. We want to take the value and utility and make it available for everyone.”

The startup's core product began with Octi debuting at #1 on the iOS App Store while still in beta. Octi season 1 beta amassed over 350,000 users who participated through in-app trading, collecting, and creating to earn both physical and digital items.

Now, Octi plans to release Ultraviolet as the stepping stone into web3 for a larger audience. NFTs will act as a way to earn in-app currency and exclusive items which can be swapped for their upcoming
