Recapping SPC Winter 2025 Demo Faire
On January 15th, 2024, 11 SPC companies gave us a preview of the future of tech with a remarkable lineup of demos in front of a packed audience of top investors and engineers.
In case you haven’t been to our Demo Faire—we take "demo" seriously. All presentations must feature live demos. No slide shows allowed.
These demos ranged from personalized online shopping, prompt-to-edit image manipulation, photo-powered nutrition insights, and a socially intelligent hive mind. Some were off-the-record, so if you want to see them before they become the next big thing, reach out to the founders. And make sure you join us live for our next Demo Faire!
Weave
Nobody likes shopping for clothes online. Jeff Shaw revealed how Weave is fixing that exact issue—no more guessing your size. With Weave, customers see exactly how clothes fit in high an ultra-high fidelity simulation. The future of personalized fashion is here.
Vamana
Founder Fellows Abhinav Shrivastava and Shishira Maiya gave us a preview of how Vamana transforms video archives into searchable & actionable assets. If you have a lot of video data, you want to make it legible to new models. But that same data relies on legacy codecs and pipelines that make it inefficient for streaming–Vamana is fixing both problems at once.

New Computer
Samantha Whitmore & Jason Yuan from New Computer revealed Lorekeeper, a socially adept entity they unleashed into the SPC community.
