2026-01-20, 5:34:46 a.m.

TORONTO, ON — January 20, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Nextech3D.ai, a leader in AI-powered event and spatial computing solutions, has expanded its KraftyLab in-person footprint to 35 major metropolitan hubs across the United States from just 20.

This expansion represents a significant increase in the company’s physical service capacity to support a growing roster of Fortune 500 clients. Nextech3D.ai continues to target a 90% gross margin profile for its 2026 fiscal year, although there is no assurance that the company can hit that goal.

To coincide with the geographic expansion, the company has officially onboarded 58 new premium offerings to its unified experience platform. These new experiences are designed to meet the evolving Q1 2026 demands of decentralized enterprise teams, including Wellness & High-Energy Fitness, Professional Development, Connoisseur & Culinary Suites.

This national expansion is supported by the company’s newly developing AI architecture, which integrates OpenAI’s Large Language Models (LLMs) with the Pinecone Vector Database. This “Semantic Memory” allows Nextech3D.ai’s platforms to provide context-aware, autonomous assistance. By utilizing Pinecone’s high-performance vector storage, the company’s AI concierge can now execute complex logistics – via natural language processing across its events.

According to Evan Gappelberg, CEO of Nextech3d.ai, the company is seeing a big flight to quality and have had specific conversations and requests from existing large enterprise customers like Oracle for in-person events.

Gappelberg said that by expanding their physical footprint to 35 cities, the company is providing the local ‘last-mile’ delivery that global brands require for their hybrid workforces, adding that the expansion serves as the physical hardware for their evolving AI-driven Operating System.

Gappelberg also said that a critical component of this OS is their recent BitPay integration, which allows for seamless, borderless transactions within their ecosystem. By merging AI-driven management with decentralized payment rails, they are building one of the first truly modern infrastructures for the global economy. The market is responding and the company is currently celebrating a series of significant client wins as organizations realize that true efficiency requires this specific blend of high-tech financial tools and high-touch local presence.

The move to 35 cities and the launch of 58 new offerings align with the company’s focus on high-margin, asset-light scalability. By maintaining a software-first approach and utilizing AI to automate event logistics, Nextech3D.ai continues to target a 90% gross margin profile for its 2026 fiscal year, although there is no assurance that the company can hit that goal.

Nextech3D.ai is an AI-first technology company specializing in live event solutions, 3D modeling, and spatial computing. Through its flagship Map D, Eventdex, and KraftyLab platforms, the company provides interactive floor plans, registration, ticketing, and blockchain-enabled credentialing for large Fortune 500 organizations worldwide including Google, Oracle, Microsoft, Netflix and others.
