To share and inspire the love of local history, the idea of HistorySoft was born in 2010. As a liability protection for electronic devices used in a Museum indoor location positioning system (invented by David Brinkman), HistorySoft LLC was created in May of 2011. For educational purposes and appreciation of history, numerous GPS enabled smartphone apps were created. In 2012, HistorySoft turned to archaeology and, with over 100 volunteers, found and uncovered the lost Colonial town of Granby and Fort Congaree II in Cayce, SC. In 2017, HistorySoft continued with more archaeological projects, and also turned its focus to education technology with Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) projects. In 2024, PC gaming became a focus and HistorySoft released its first game on Steam (the world's largest digital distribution service and storefront.) With over three billion active users, we believe Steam is a perfect outlet for history related applications. Although still evolving, a main goal of HistorySoft remains: Bring forgotten history back to life and make it fun.
