About

Israeli augmented reality startup Sightful laid off 20 employees, representing one-third of its approximately 60-person workforce, in early July 2024. The company, which had raised over $60 million, is making a strategic pivot away from hardware. Following the recent launch of its Spacetop G1 AR laptop, Sightful is disbanding its hardware department to focus exclusively on developing and distributing its spatial computing software and operating system. This shift is a response to rapid advancements in the computing market, including new AI-powered computers from major tech firms, as the company aims to accelerate its business model by licensing its software to various hardware partners.
