  • Investors

    Hello investors,

    I don't do 'death by PowerPoint'. Everything you need to know about what I want funded is on this Website to see. It's early stage, so writing some fantasy Business Plan that is exactly wrong is not something I am going to do, This is the Seed funding stage.

    I am looking for Seed Funding of less than 100,000 US dollars in exchange for 30% of a newly formed company to accelerate my Vibe Coding venture built on Google Firebase Studio.

    My IP is a growing number of software assets that can be rapidly created, used, reused and assembled into scalable, low-cost Web apps delivered on the trusted Google Cloud Platform.

    My ICP is small-to-medium enterprises who are professional services firms who operate with a billable hours model but where AI is increasingly replacing their business-as-usual revenues.

    My Value Proposition is this: enable the services firm under onslaught from AI to productise services, turn brainware into software and monetise Web apps, fast.

    For my customer this is Going Non-Linear.

    Unlike billable hours services, where costs grow linearly with sales, a business based on selling subscriptions to Web apps grows exponentially where revenues can grow non-linearly, relative to costs.

    There are two other inherent advantages for a services firm in Going Non-Linear:

    1. Reach moves beyond geographic constraints of a low-growth economy to open up entry to a high-growth economy. Thanks to AI, language translation is no longer a barrier either.

    2. From an exit valuation perspective, a business built on a foundation of Annual Recurring Revenues (ARR) from Web apps can achieve a 5-10x multiplier v. a billable hours-only firm.

    I look forward to exploring this further with you.

    Best regards, Ian
