Frequently Asked Questions

CatapalloVR is a women-owned company that builds immersive VR, AI, and custom LMS training experiences for the moments where standard training falls short — high-risk industrial tasks, autism skill-building, employee onboarding, and sales readiness. We're built on a clinician-led, diagnostic approach: matching the right training solution to an organization's actual need, rather than selling technology for its own sake. Our work is organized under four products — CORE, REHEARSE, ARRIVE, and SPAR.

Immersive and simulation-based training puts someone inside a realistic version of a real-world situation — a sales call, a hazardous work environment, a social interaction — so they can practice the moment before it actually counts. Instead of reading about a scenario or watching a video, the learner acts within it, makes decisions, and sees the outcome. CatapalloVR builds this kind of practice using VR, AI-driven simulation, and interactive digital content, depending on the product and the need.

No. While REHEARSE and CORE are built primarily in VR, ARRIVE is a custom LMS and onboarding platform, and SPAR is an AI-powered conversation simulator that runs in a browser. CatapalloVR chooses the medium — VR, AI, or a managed LMS — based on what actually solves the customer's training problem.

No. CORE and REHEARSE modules can run on any VR headset with a browser, but REHEARSE and ARRIVE content can also be delivered on a tablet, laptop, or through a client's existing LMS. SPAR runs entirely in a web browser and never requires a headset.

CatapalloVR works with autism providers and clinics (CORE), high-risk industrial employers like manufacturing, mining, food processing, and healthcare organizations (REHEARSE), companies scaling their onboarding across teams or locations (ARRIVE), and sales organizations of any size (SPAR). Our customers range from single-location service businesses to multi-site healthcare and manufacturing operations.

SPAR is CatapalloVR's AI-powered sales practice and coaching platform. Sales reps practice live discovery, demo, and closing conversations against AI buyer personas modeled on the organization's actual customers, and every session generates a scored coaching report. It gives sales leaders real visibility into how a rep is performing — where they're strong, where they're struggling — before that shows up on a live call.

ARRIVE is CatapalloVR's fully managed, custom-built onboarding and LMS platform. We design the curriculum, produce the content, and host the experience inside a Learning Management System built around the organization's own brand and workflow — built for multilingual, global teams, not a generic template with features nobody uses.

REHEARSE is CatapalloVR's custom VR training product for high-risk, high-stakes, or difficult-to-replicate situations — built for industries like manufacturing, mining, food processing, and healthcare. Each REHEARSE module is built from the customer's own facility, protocols, and real incident history, not pulled from a generic stock scenario library.

CORE is CatapalloVR's subscription VR training library built specifically for autism providers. It offers a 180+ module library across four skill domains — Communication, Occupational, Ready to Live, and Emotion Regulation — designed for clinics, day programs, schools, and provider organizations supporting autistic adults and neurodiverse individuals building real-world independence.

Both, depending on the product. CORE and SPAR are ready-to-deploy subscription platforms you can start using quickly; REHEARSE and ARRIVE are fully custom-built around your organization's own facility, protocols, brand, and workflow. Which path makes sense depends on what you're trying to solve — that's exactly what a Book a Chat conversation is for.

It depends on the product. REHEARSE modules can be deployed via a browser or tablet link through your existing LMS, so you don't need to change platforms to use them. ARRIVE typically hosts your onboarding experience inside a Learning Management System we build and manage for you — if you have an existing LMS you'd want to keep using instead, that's worth discussing directly.

Yes. For custom REHEARSE and ARRIVE engagements, organizations regularly provide us with existing materials — protocols, facility details, incident history, branding, or current training content — which we use to design and build the custom experience.

Yes. ARRIVE is built to deliver consistent onboarding across languages, locations, and teams, so organizations with a multilingual or globally distributed workforce get the same branded experience everywhere.

For REHEARSE, the process starts with your protocols and incident history, moves through design and production, and typically launches in 6–8 weeks. For ARRIVE, we move through discovery, curriculum design, content production, and launch, with timelines that vary by the scope of what you're building — a single onboarding path looks different from a multi-role, multi-language rollout. Exact timing is scoped during your Book a Chat conversation.

It depends on the product. CORE is priced per seat starting around $70/month, billed annually; SPAR has tiered annual plans starting around $3,000/year plus a one-time setup fee; REHEARSE is a flat fee per custom module, with no per-seat licensing; and ARRIVE is scoped and quoted based on your specific onboarding needs.

Yes. SPAR has a live, working demo you can try directly from its product page, and REHEARSE offers two real training modules — an OSHA Safety Escape Room and a Hospital Competency scenario — that you can launch and try immediately on its product page, no signup required.

CatapalloVR is founded and led by Dr. Kryn McClain, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with a clinical and instructional-design background. Every product is built on a diagnostic approach — understanding the real, identified need before recommending a solution — rather than selling VR or AI technology for its own sake.

It depends on the moment that matters most. For onboarding new hires consistently across locations, ARRIVE builds a custom LMS. For high-stakes physical or safety tasks, REHEARSE builds custom VR simulations from real incident history. For sales teams that need to practice live conversations before a real call, SPAR provides AI-powered practice with scored coaching reports. For life-skills and autism-focused workforce development, CORE offers a ready-to-deploy VR module library.
