STYLY Inc. just picked up all of Palan Inc.’s shares and the two are now gearing up to merge their operations and eventually run under a single brand by FY2026. The move is pretty straightforward. Both players want to speed up how XR gets adopted in the real world and push out experiences that don’t feel like science-fair experiments anymore.
With the two teams coming together, businesses in Japan and outside get one combined stack that covers pretty much the whole XR spectrum. You get simple WebAR that runs on phones and tablets, spatial experiences built for AI-powered smart glasses, and location based entertainment setups that rely on head-mounted displays. Basically everything from lightweight stuff to heavyweight immersive builds.
Both companies started back in 2016 chasing the same mission democratize XR. STYLY built its name around city scale and commercial space installations, working with landowners and more than 100,000 creators worldwide. パラン carved out its spot in the WebAR scene, with roughly 3,000 companies using its tools to create and share AR experiences without heavy lifting.

And the timing fits. With spatial computing devices and smart glasses popping up one after the other Apple Vision Pro, XREAL models, Meta Ray Ban Display, Galaxy XR the appetite for digital plus physical blended experiences is only going to grow.
This integration is basically the next chapter for two early XR veterans. They want to shape how spatial experiences evolve and build a platform that can pitch a wide range of XR solutions without fragmentation. The long game is simple blend their strengths and push a Japan born XR platform that treats spatial computing like something you wear instead of something you visit.
