Simia's growth strategy revolves around a scalable, creator-driven flywheel fueled by user-generated content, organic social distribution, and community-driven virality. Key components driving growth include:

• Creator Acquisition: We target high-engagement creators on platforms like TikTok, Wattpad, and Webtoon, incentivizing them with our creator rewards program and proprietary in-app currency, Neon.

• Remix as Distribution: Every piece of content created on Simia can be remixed and shared, creating a viral loop that invites new users.

• Paid Acquisition: With a CPI of $5.92 (below the global iOS average), our cost-efficient campaigns yield strong conversion and retention, especially among younger users.

This strategy, backed by a 28% visitor-to-user conversion rate and 50% month-over-month traffic growth, is building a scalable acquisition engine that continues to grow our user base through organic virality.

Simia has been built at the perfect moment for several reasons:

• Industry Shift: Audiences are moving away from passive consumption toward interactive and personalized content.

• Tech Enablement: Advancements in Generative AI and real-time rendering now make real-time, user-driven storytelling possible on mobile devices.

• Customer Behavior Change: Gen Z is driving a massive shift toward interactive content and real-time engagement.

Simia’s first-mover advantage positions us to capture the market before larger incumbents catch up, putting us at the forefront of this new wave in entertainment.

Simia's unfair advantage is grounded in three key areas:

1. Proprietary IP: Our patented "three-way authorship" framework (U.S. Patent Application No: 17/861,870) is a key differentiator that protects our core innovation. This patented framework for real-time, interactive storytelling between the creator, audience, and AI ensures that no other platform can offer the same seamless, generative experience. We’ve filed a patent continuation to further protect this innovation.

2. First-Mover Advantage: While others may try to retrofit existing tools, Simia is built from the ground up to embrace remix culture, user-driven content, and real-time AI generation, positioning us as a leader in this space.

3. Deep Expertise: Our team has decades of combined experience in generative media, having pioneered innovation in games, film, TV, and music. This expertise allows us to build a platform that combines cutting-edge AI with rich creative storytelling, putting us in a leadership position as this new category scales.

Simia's entry point is unique because we dramatically lower the barrier to creation, transforming passive audiences into active participants. Key elements include:

• Creator Outreach: We target niche, story-driven communities on platforms like Webtoon, Wattpad, and Reddit, offering creators tools to bring their ideas to life in real time.

• Network Effects: Every piece of content created includes a “Made with Simia” tag, creating a viral loop where each piece invites new users.

• Seamless Remixing: Combining content consumption and remixing into one action creates a natural flywheel of content generation, community growth, and virality.

The biggest risk is the fast-paced change in both technology and user behavior. The interactive generative content landscape is evolving rapidly, and we need to move quickly to capture this emerging space.

However, R&D is a core pillar of our strategy, and our team is experienced in navigating change. We leverage automation and agentic systems to scale efficiently, responding quickly to new innovations and user demands. We're confident in our ability to stay ahead of market trends and continue leading in this space.

Simia is set to redefine entertainment by creating a platform for real-time, generative storytelling that empowers creators and fans to build their own ecosystems. This convergence mirrors the success of platforms like Roblox and TikTok.

With a mobile-first, creator-led growth model, Simia is primed to scale quickly. We will unlock new monetization pathways through premium creator tools, in-app currencies, and brand partnerships, creating a scalable revenue model. Early traction with Neon, our in-app currency, shows significant engagement and creator incentives.

As we scale, Simia will enable gaming, brand co-creation, education, and virtual experiences, creating a multiverse of co-created content and opening doors to new, high-value partnerships. This positions Simia to become a $100M+ business.

We’re raising a $1.5M USD seed round to scale Simia and drive global growth. The capital will primarily enhance our core engine with advanced AI models and multi-agent systems, expand our creator ecosystem, and boost monetization. We’ll also refine Simia’s narrative capabilities, improve visual style, launch on Android, and ensure GDPR compliance for international markets. Additionally, we’ll continue protecting our intellectual property and explore strategic IP partnerships to expand our reach.

This investment will enable us to accelerate development, strengthen our global position, and unlock new growth opportunities for Simia.

Simia’s best customers are next-gen creators, passionate about storytelling and excited by its intuitive, real-time creation capabilities.

What compels them most is that Simia transforms every viewer into a creator, making content creation fast, expressive, and engaging. We’ve strategically soft-launched in early markets to gather key engagement metrics, allowing us to refine the product before a broader U.S. release. 

Here's what we’re seeing:

• User Engagement: Users are spending over 17 hours creating and interacting with content, averaging 6+ minutes per session, putting us ahead of platforms like TikTok and nearing Instagram Reels benchmarks.

• Conversion Rate: 28% of visitors are becoming users, demonstrating strong early adoption.

• Traffic Growth: We’ve seen 50% month-over-month growth, signaling robust organic momentum and market demand.

• Net Promoter Score (NPS): Our NPS of 61 reflects high user satisfaction, with early users recommending Simia and contributing to its virality.

As we continue to refine Simia, these metrics are trending upward, reinforcing our confidence in the product's scalability and the potential for rapid growth as we expand with your support.

If we could only use the funds for one thing, it would be to level up our simulation engine, improving its visual fidelity, narrative intelligence, and creative capabilities. This would directly enhance user satisfaction, encourage more creators to join, and create a deeper, more engaging creative experience. This investment will keep Simia compelling and fun, ensuring long-term user retention.
