Modest Tree's Xplorer software is developed to allow users to create interactive mixed-reality presentations. The software is developed with drag-and-drop features to allow users with limited experience to work with the software while still developing interactive and engaging presentations. The software is a cross-platform software capable of being presented simultaneously with users to allow for real-time interaction and collaboration and can be used in a desktop experience, augmented reality experience, or virtual reality experience.
Modest Tree's LEAF software is a secured communication platform, developed to allow users to engage in chat, video calls, or VoIP calls from a single platform with end-to-end encryption. The communications platform also offers secured document sharing to ensure users can collaborate digitally without having to worry about external security risks.
Modest Tree's other software project, Tech Companion, is a mobile and mixed-reality virtual technician and maintenance software project that was developed in collaboration with Canada's Ocean Supercluster. The software is developed to use maintenance data on marine equipment during build and in-service to give maintenance professionals and technicians a mobile or mixed reality assistance in maintenance operations.
