Unity Software is a leading provider of a real-time 3D development platform that enables creators across industries to design, build and operate interactive, real-time experiences. Originally focused on the game development market, Unity’s technology now extends into sectors such as film, automotive, architecture, engineering and construction, delivering immersive content for mobile, desktop, console, augmented reality and virtual reality devices. The company’s core offering comprises a suite of authoring tools, runtime engines and cloud services that streamline the creation and deployment of interactive 3D applications.
The Unity Editor serves as the central hub where developers design scenes, script behavior and iterate on assets. Complementing the Editor, Unity offers a modular portfolio of services under two primary segments: Create Solutions and Operate Solutions. Create Solutions include tools for collaboration, performance optimization and asset management, while Operate Solutions encompass multiplayer networking, analytics, user acquisition and monetization through in-app advertising. Together, these services help customers improve productivity, scale projects and maximize engagement across platforms.
Since its founding in 2004 in Copenhagen, Denmark, Unity has expanded globally with headquarters in San Francisco, California, and regional offices across North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. The platform serves a diverse community of independent creators, mid-sized studios and Fortune 500 enterprises. Its Asset Store marketplace offers thousands of prebuilt assets and extensions, empowering developers to accelerate production timelines and reduce costs by leveraging shared resources.
Unity Software went public on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2020. The company’s leadership team is headed by Chief Executive Officer John Riccitiello, who joined Unity in 2019 and previously served as CEO of Electronic Arts. Under his guidance, Unity has pursued strategic initiatives to broaden its addressable market, invest in artificial intelligence and machine learning, and strengthen its position as the go-to platform for real-time 3D content creation and operation worldwide.
