About
Floreo is a research-based virtual reality therapy modality built specifically for neurodiverse learners — including those with autism, ADHD, and other developmental differences. Developed by a multidisciplinary team of clinicians, behavioral therapists, engineers, and neurodiverse individuals, Floreo uses immersive VR environments to help users practice real-world social, communication, and behavioral skills at their own pace. The platform has received the FDA's Breakthrough Device Designation and has been accepted into the Total Product Life Cycle Advisory Program (TAP), underscoring its clinical credibility. Floreo's growing lesson library covers a wide range of skills — from interpreting social cues and practicing conversations to imaginative play and community navigation — all designed to transfer to real-life outcomes. Floreo is accessible across multiple hardware options, including iPhone with Google Cardboard, Meta Quest 2/3/Pro, and PICO G3/Neo3/4 headsets, making it a flexible and affordable option for providers, schools, and families. The platform is telehealth-ready, enabling therapists to guide sessions remotely. It is used across clinics, ABA therapy centers, special education programs, and family homes, offering a consistent, engaging, and measurable therapy experience for learners of all ability levels.
