Topia
Topia is a browser-based platform for interactive virtual worlds where people can explore, create, collaborate, communicate and play. Participants’ audio and video connect as they approach one another and disconnect as they move away. World owners can customize spaces and embed live streams, websites, music, apps, games and collaborative tools. Access can be restricted with passwords, account authentication, approved guest lists, scheduled opening hours or SAML SSO. Topia lists integrations including Slack, Miro, Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Sheets and Calendly, alongside an SDK, APIs, JavaScript and C# client libraries, and webhooks for custom applications and data flows. The free Demo plan has a 50-person capacity, with broadcasting and screen sharing each limited to one. PRO is billed at $4 a month per user and starts at $100 per month; enterprise pricing is custom. At capacity, arriving users wait until space becomes available. Topia recommends Chrome, Edge and Brave; Firefox and Safari support is in beta. Mobile use is audio-only and in beta, with desktop or laptop recommended.
