About us

A company built to make avatars actually work.

Avatar Solutions pairs a decade at the front of immersive technology with deep, hands-on AI engineering — so real-time avatars ship as finished, measured business outcomes, not experiments.

Why we exist

Two disciplines, one outcome

Avatar Solutions is a subsidiary of Bay AI, the Australian AI consulting and implementation firm. Its founder, Richard, teamed up with Jason — who has spent over a decade at the front of the immersive-technology (VR/AR) industry — to point that combined capability at a single problem: turning commoditising real-time avatar platforms into working, integrated, measurable outcomes.

Jason brings the craft of building immersive experiences audiences actually remember, and years of getting brands and retailers to adopt new technology. Richard brings 20+ years of full-stack software engineering and three-plus years building with AI models every day. Together that's the combination this work needs — someone who understands the human experience, and someone who can ship the system behind it.

We're both based in Byron Bay, and we work with organisations right across Australia.

The founders

Jason, Co-founder of Avatar Solutions

Jason

Co-founder

Jason founded AURORA XR in 2015, producing immersive VR and AR campaigns across Europe, APAC and North America for brands including Meta, Nikon, Atlassian, Red Bull, Cadbury, World Vision and Universal Music — as well as work for the Sydney Opera House, Transport NSW and the FIFA World Cup.

AURORA won Westpac's Businesses of the Future in 2017; its Meta, Nikon and Tourism NZ production “Pure 360” was experienced by a global audience of 8 million, and its work with the NSW Cancer Research Institute in collaboration with HTC VIVE was nominated for a Business NSW Innovation Award.

He built SAE's Virtual Reality platform and served as President of the Byron Bay Chamber of Commerce from 2021 to 2023. Earlier, 13 years in shopper marketing across Asia Pacific taught him how to turn retail environments and shopper data into experiences that drive foot traffic and loyalty.

Richard, Co-founder of Avatar Solutions

Richard

Co-founder

Richard is the technical half of the partnership. He has spent the past three years building with AI every day — working directly with models, learning how they behave under pressure, where they fail silently, and what they actually cost to run.

That sits on top of a 20-plus-year career in full-stack software development, building real products for some of Australia's most recognised brands.

He is also the founder of Bay AI, the AI consulting and implementation firm behind Avatar Solutions.
