Rift: The GPS-Free Positioning Platform Pitching the Future of Spatial Intelligence

Algorithms and location systems power virtually every smart device on the planet. But can a next-generation positioning platform built without cameras or GPS convince investors it’s the future of spatial computing? In this episode of Capital Calling, Karolina Kaylani (Fedorowicz), Founder and CEO of RIFT Spatial Technologies Inc., pitches a privacy-first geolocation infrastructure that delivers high-precision 3D positioning without relying on GPS, cameras, or external hardware. RIFT leverages machine learning and multi-sensor fusion to enable precise indoor and outdoor positioning in complex, GPS-challenged environments; from industrial facilities and autonomous machines to logistics operations and mobility systems, with privacy and security at its core. Across the table, investors Zac Geinzer of Commonweal Ventures, Ella Molony Cook of DFX, and Max Rivera of GHOST Angels engage with Karolina’s pitch as it unfolds. They examine the technology’s positioning in the location stack, product-market fit across robotics and mobility, go-to-market strategy, monetization potential, and whether a GPS-independent approach to spatial intelligence can scale into a defensible venture-backed platform. Capital Calling provides a behind-the-scenes look at a real pitch from both sides of the table. Each episode begins with a live founder pitch and product demo, followed by direct investor questioning. After the pitch, investors enter into a private debrief conversation where they debate the opportunity openly: without the founder present. The founder, on the other hand, enters the On-Call Room to discuss the pitch one-on-one from their perspective. Then, the investors give their verdicts, where feedback is delivered candidly and decisions are made. Produced by Coeus Collective in partnership with the NYU Stern Berkeley Center for Entrepreneurship, Capital Calling offers founders, operators, students, and investors an unfiltered look at how early-stage investment decisions actually happen, and what separates compelling ideas from fundable companies.
