What the company owns
Physical products
A tassel + regalia storefront with a configurator and Stripe Checkout, dropship-fulfilled with per-order margin tracking.
School SaaS
A B2B event portal — branding, roster import, per-student token links, and metrics — sold as per-event plans.
Student identity network
QR-linked graduate profiles that families scan and share, creating organic distribution back into the platform.
Memory database
A private, account-based memory vault (timeline, photos, designs, time capsule) that compounds over time.
The moats
- DataA schema linking schools ↔ students ↔ families ↔ alumni across recurring class years.
- DistributionProgrammatic SEO (~150 schools + majors + class years) plus organic QR and share loops.
- ProductAn integrated flow — design → buy → identity → memory → school event — no point solution matches.
- NetworkEvery school event seeds consumer profiles; every shared page pulls in families and surfaces school demand.
Investor deck outline
Ten sections. Traction is intentionally left as a placeholder to be filled with real figures.
Vision
The digital graduation identity layer — one platform connecting students, schools, families, and alumni around a milestone that recurs for everyone, every year.
Problem
Graduation is high-emotion and high-spend, but the experience is fragmented across regalia suppliers, photo studios, announcement printers, and generic social apps. No one owns the connective layer.
Solution
A single flow: design a graduation look free, buy the matching physical tassel, get a QR identity page families scan and share, and keep a private memory vault — with a school portal on the other side.
Market
Every graduating student, every year, across high schools, colleges, and universities — a recurring, calendar-driven, family-funded milestone. Qualitatively large and evergreen; sizing figures to be supplied.
Product
Built and live: free studio, storefront + configurator, QR graduate identity network, memory vault, school B2B event portal, viral loops, and a ~150-school programmatic-SEO directory.
Traction
[to be filled] — pre-launch. No revenue, users, orders, or signed schools are claimed. Metrics will be provided by the founder in the data room.
Business model
D2C commerce (physical tassels/regalia via Stripe), per-event school SaaS (starter/professional/enterprise), a future creator marketplace, and companion iOS Pro subscriptions.
Moat
Four reinforcing moats — data (school↔student↔family↔alumni graph), distribution (programmatic SEO + organic QR/share loops), product (integrated end-to-end flow), and network (school events seed consumer profiles).
Growth
Consumer studio + SEO and the school portal are built; next is go-to-market (launch, seed schools, live fulfillment), then a marketplace and district expansion with compounding network effects.
Exit
A natural bolt-on for edtech/student-engagement, graduation suppliers, school-comms platforms, consumer photo/memory apps, and personalized-products marketplaces. Analysis only — no party is claimed to have expressed interest.
Diligence & contact
The platform documentation and structured data room are available for review. Confidential materials (financials, customer lists, legal agreements) are shared with authorized parties under NDA.
