KAROLINA FEDOROWICZ AND RIFT: THE INVISIBLE INFRASTRUCTURE OF SPATIAL INTELLIGENCE
Karolina Fedorowicz is building RIFT Spatial Technologies to power the future of spatial intelligence — the invisible infrastructure that will underpin how the physical and digital worlds interact.
Spatial computing is often marketed through spectacle: headsets, demos, futuristic interfaces. RIFT's orientation is different. It focuses on the systems that must work when precision, reliability, and scale matter — enterprise and industrial environments where errors are costly and "cool" is irrelevant compared to uptime and accuracy.
RIFT develops spatial computing systems designed for applications where the world must be measured, modeled, and acted upon with consistency. That includes workflows where humans and machines share context about physical space — maintenance, training, logistics, safety, and operations that have historically depended on tacit knowledge and fragmented tools.
The company is Seed-stage with early revenue, which matters in a category where many projects remain permanently experimental. Revenue is evidence that buyers are willing to depend on spatial intelligence as a production system, not a pilot novelty.
RIFT is a bet that the next decade of computing will not only be about screens, but about spatial state: where things are, how they move, and how software can align with the physical world without forcing humans to become the glue.
Fedorowicz's line captures the shift: she stopped building what the world can see, and started building what the world will run on — the layer beneath the demos, where infrastructure quietly decides what is possible.
