• PeriopSim VR simulation — immersive, self-paced practice of surgical procedures for perioperative teams.
• Quantifiable assessment — automatic grading that shows how ready a learner is for the operating room.
• Curriculum tools — simulations and assessments that educators can build into nursing and surgical technology courses.
• Team readiness training — flexible tools aimed at teamwork and communication among operating-room staff.

Who it works with

• Hospital training directors, educators and surgeons preparing their teams.
• Perioperative nurses and surgical technologists practising unfamiliar procedures.
• Surgical technology programmes and their instructors.
• Nursing schools helping students judge whether surgery is the right speciality.
