**Who are we and what do we do:**
Holofy is at its core a technology that specializes in digitizing the real world so it can be transacted at the speed of light. In order to achieve that, we've built an entire sales engagement platform on top of video, as we believe it's the most powerful tool to story-tell beating any other medium ( such as 3D ) hands over fists.
