What we run

Always a unit ready to go.

Each headset cycles through five stages and returns to stock. We run every stage — you submit the request.

Stages 2–5 repeat for every demo the unit runs.
Our warehouse runs on weekdays, so turnaround is counted in business days — a unit returned Friday is back in stock early the following week.

How teams use it

The fleet size you start with decides how you'll use it.

Every program starts at the 5-headset minimum. From there, the size of your fleet naturally sets the pattern — these three cover the full range, no gaps, no overlap.

One person wearing a VR headset in a private office, with a second headset stored in an open carrying case on the desk.
5–8 headsets

Single evaluations, steady rotation

One or two units out with a prospect at a time, the rest held in reserve at the warehouse. The right size for a lean program just getting started.

Six people wearing VR headsets together in a team workshop, with a facilitator holding a tablet and a case of spare headsets nearby.
9–15 headsets

Team workshops, parallel accounts

Several units out at once — a group workshop at one site, or two or three smaller evaluations running with different accounts at the same time.

A trade show booth where staff help attendees try VR headsets, with a cart of headsets charging in the foreground.
16–25 headsets

Conferences & trade shows

A large block ships to one event, runs for the length of the show, and returns to the warehouse together. Above 25, we scope it as a custom program.

Pricing

A flat program fee, plus a rate per headset.

One formula for every fleet size. No tiers, no loan-window limits, no feature levels to compare.

Minimum 5. Above 25, we'll quote it.

All five stages of the loop — provisioning, MDM enrollment, warehousing, deployment coordination, returns, condition check, cleaning and reset — plus per-deployment tracking, reporting, and program support. No loan-window limit: your devices stay out as long as your deal needs.

Two ways in

Buy the hardware through us, and handling is on us.

Either way the devices are yours and the program fee is the same. What changes is whether picking, kitting, and packing each deployment is included.

Buy hardware through Knoxlabs

Most programs. We're an authorized distributor for Meta, HTC VIVE, Pico and others.

  • Handling and kitting included on every deployment
  • Hardware and accessories quoted with your program
  • Units arrive already in our warehouse — nothing to ship in
  • Protection plan per device, from $40 (2-yr)
  • Freight at cost, from ~$36/headset — or your own carrier account + handling fee

Ship us devices you own

For teams with a fleet already in hand.

  • Same program fee, same operation, same reporting
  • We inspect and enroll each unit on arrival
  • Handling and kitting charged per deployment
  • Protection plan per device, from $40 (2-yr)
  • Freight at cost, from ~$36/headset, including shipping them to us — or your own carrier account + handling fee

Make it yours

The prospect never sees us.

A case with your logo, a headset with your logo, your leaflet inside, and a device that boots straight into your app. No manufacturer home screen, no setup steps, no Knoxlabs.

Headset branding

Your logo on the front of each headset, or a full skin wrap across headset and controllers.

Minimum order applies

Branded case or sleeve

Custom printed case or box sleeve, so the kit arrives looking like yours before it's opened.

Minimum order applies

Printed inserts

A leaflet, quick-start card, or pitch sheet packed with every shipment.

Per printed piece

Asset tagging

Every unit tagged to your organization, so a device in the field is always traceable to your fleet.

Per headset

Kiosk lock

The headset opens into your software on wake. Included in every program at no extra cost.

Included

Software account linking

Each device linked to your platform account before it leaves the warehouse.

Per device

Branding and customization are priced per unit with minimum order quantities. Ask for the à la carte sheet with your program quote.

Getting started

Signed PO → first units demo-ready in 14 business days → after that, approved requests ship in 1–2 business days.

Questions

Before you apply

Is there a limit on how long a device can stay out?
No. They're your devices — keep them with a prospect as long as the deal needs. The only practical limit is that a unit in the field isn't available for the next request, which is what fleet size is for.
What's the difference between buying hardware through you and shipping my own?
The program fee and the operation are identical. If you buy the hardware through Knoxlabs, handling and kitting are included on every deployment. If you ship us devices you already own, handling and kitting are charged per deployment. Protection and freight apply either way.
Who is DemoReady not a good fit for?
We'd rather say so early than take on a program that won't work. It's usually too soon if:
  • Your app has no stable build yet
  • You sell a consumer-only product
  • You already run a mature in-house demo operation
  • You need fewer than five headsets
Which devices do you support?
Meta Quest, Pico, and HTC VIVE make up most fleets, and we work with other VR and AR devices as well. If your app runs on something we haven't handled before, say so on the application and we'll confirm before quoting.
What does the prospect actually see?
Your app, on wake. Each unit is locked to kiosk mode, so the headset opens straight into your software rather than the manufacturer's home screen. Add branding and the case, the headset, and the printed insert are all yours too.
What does the $199 onboarding cover?
The one-time setup before your first unit ships: standing up your device-management account, building the kiosk profiles your app runs in, and QA on the first batch. It's billed once, separately from the recurring $25/mo base fee and the per-headset rate, because it only happens at the start.
What happens if a device comes back damaged?
Every unit carries a protection plan covering accidental damage, drops, and spills, with claims handled through a third-party provider. Plans start at $40/device for 2-year coverage — the rate scales with the device's replacement value, so a higher-value headset costs a bit more to cover. Accessories and worn-out items are replaced and billed as used. Where a single part can't be replaced on its own, we replace the full kit — hardware and accessories together. Loss, theft, and in-transit damage aren't covered by the plan; we agree who carries that risk before your first shipment.
Can I ship on my own FedEx, UPS, or DHL account?
Yes. Give us the account number and we'll ship on it instead of ours. You're billed our standard per-item handling fee — from $8 — instead of freight at cost.
Will this generate leads for us?
No — it converts them. You bring the prospects; we make sure the hardware experience works when they're ready to try it. You track demo outcomes and conversion; we report on fleet and operations.
Why a 12-month term?
Provisioning, device-management enrollment, and protection setup are front-loaded. On a shorter cycle you'd pay for setup and barely get to use it.
