GIMME360

GIMME360 is a Toronto augmented-reality company founded in 2016. It began as a charity apparel brand whose hoodies unlocked 360-degree video of the water projects they funded, then pivoted to ARC, a drag-and-drop platform for building AR product experiences. Four Dragons invested $125,000 on Dragons' Den in 2018.

About

GIMME360 started in humanitarian work rather than in technology. Its founders were hired by an NGO to shoot 360-degree video in Cambodia showing donors where their money went, and built a clothing line around the same idea — garments carrying a chip you tapped with a phone to watch the water-filtration and delivery work the purchase funded, with partners including Ryan's Well Foundation and 1001 Fontaines. The Kickstarter for that virtual-reality hoodie raised just over $20,000. By the time they took the TechTO stage in May 2017 as Demo of the Month they had turned the underlying tech into the product: live augmented-reality demos run off a phone — a still image playing as video, a 2D floor plan standing up into a walkable 3D model, and a map pulling live business locations from the Google API. That work became ARC, the Augmented Reality Cloud, a drag-and-drop tool letting enterprises build 3D product experiences without AR expertise, aimed largely at healthcare and pharmaceutical customers. The company pitched on CBC's Dragons' Den in an episode aired 15 March 2018 and left with four Dragons in for $125,000. By 2019 it reported 12 employees and more than $1M raised.

Quick answers

What does GIMME360 do?

Augmented and virtual reality for enterprises, through a platform called ARC — the Augmented Reality Cloud. Customers build custom 3D objects and animations with a drag-and-drop interface, or pick from a pre-built library, rather than commissioning AR work.

How did it start?

With clothing, not software. The founders were shooting 360-degree video in Cambodia for an NGO to show donors where their money went, and built an apparel line around the same idea — tap the garment with a phone, watch the water project it funded. The Kickstarter for that hoodie raised just over $20,000.

What happened on Dragons' Den?

Josiah Crombie, Lucas Bruno and Daniel Bokun pitched in an episode aired 15 March 2018 and landed four Dragons for $125,000 at 20%, with an option for the Dragons to put in another $125,000 for a further 10% within twelve months.

Is there a website?

Not a working one. gimme360.ca redirects but never responds over HTTPS, and gimme360.com does not resolve — both checked 10 August 2026 — so no link is published here.
