SpringboardVR licenses the games. Clutchr runs the arcade.
SpringboardVR solves one hard problem — licensing VR titles to commercial venues. It does not solve bookings, POS, cafe, payments, tournaments or payroll. Clutchr is the arcade's operating system, and most modern VR arcades use both products together.
TL;DR
SpringboardVR solves VR content licensing. Clutchr solves the rest — booking, POS, cafe, payments, tournaments and staff payroll. They're complementary for most VR arcades.

FAQ
Is Clutchr a SpringboardVR replacement?
Only partially. SpringboardVR's core value is VR game licensing — Clutchr does not license VR content. Clutchr handles everything else a VR arcade needs: billing, bookings, cafe, payroll and reporting. Many operators use both.
Can Clutchr run a pure VR arcade?
Yes, for the operations side — POS, headset timers, waivers, bookings, cafe, loyalty and staff payroll. You'd typically pair it with a content platform like SpringboardVR for VR game distribution.
Does Clutchr capture digital waivers?
Yes. Customers sign a liability waiver at booking time; the signed PDF is stored against their customer record.
What about per-pod utilisation reports?
Clutchr shows utilisation heatmaps per pod per hour so you can tune pricing and peak-time specials.
Does Clutchr know when a pod is occupied?
POS staff mark sessions as started / extended / ended. A hardware-integrated occupancy sensor is on the roadmap.
Is there a minimum contract?
No. Month-to-month after the 14-day trial.
