LIV Creator Kit: A mid-year review

6 months ago we (publicly) launched LIV Creator Kit (LCK), the in-game camera toolkit for VR and MR. The idea is simple: capture XR moments as effortlessly as we do on our phones in the real world.

www.linkedin.com

LIV @liv.tv · Jul 9

Coming soon:
-Direct headset-to-platform live streaming
-Integrated in-headset video browsing
-Pause/resume video capture
-Separate microphone/game audio tracks

Our roadmap: bring everyday camera experiences to VR across every platform and app.

LIV @liv.tv · Jul 9

98% of videos are captured on Meta Quest, split evenly between Quest 3 and 2. Getting LIV to run cleanly on standalone hardware wasn't easy, but 9 years of video capture expertise paid off.

LIV @liv.tv · Jul 9

The results speak for themselves:

Underdogs: ~10,000 videos in first month (single player!)
Tactical Assault: 70,000 videos in first 3 days
Walkabout Mini Golf: >12,000 videos since June launch
Gorilla Tag: Over 1 million videos every month

LIV @liv.tv · Jul 9

Once the camera is in an app, user adoption follows swiftly. In the last 6 months:

-72M hours captured = 364 years of footage
-15% of users record content with LIV
-Average user creates 18 videos
-D90 retention is 11%

LIV @liv.tv · Jul 9

Integrations are existential for LIV. Without developers integrating LIV, our camera can't exist.
Out of 2,082 apps with SDK activity, ~7% have launched publicly. We've powered cameras in Gorilla Tag, Walkabout Mini Golf, Tactical Assault, Underdogs and others.
