Typically when a Start-up comes to you they have an idea, or a demo or at best an MVP; in this case we have actual working software systems, that is an integrated Social network & Search engine, that are being used by Millions already. With these actual working software systems having been developed under non-profit Search engine & Social network of Anoox, ready to be moved and made operational with appropriate Seed funding under the Start-Up WasTopia.com

The Search engine part has been developed to the proof of concept. That is proving the concept that Crowd Wisdom powered search engine can produce best search results. But to the proof of concept only since to operate a Search engine at level of Google™, Yandex™, or Baidu™ requires to Index 100s of Billions of pages which requires 100s of Servers and 24/7 NOC which require substantial funding such as DuckDuckGo™ an alt Search engine that has rasied $175Mill to date

The Social networking part is developed to a rather full extent making it highly useful as is. In fact the Social networking part is so value rich that for many it is the Hub of their daily lives, including many in USA, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, etc. And the value of the Social networking part was recently increased by orders of magnitude with the release of the Instant Messenger

Now it may seem this is an unusual investment opportunity, since the core technology has been developed under a non-profit to be moved to this new Start-up with proper funding. But in fact there is a great example of such model. That is OpenAI™ of ChatGPT fame was founded as a non-profit internet company, almost the same year Anoox was made into a non-profit Search engine & Social network AND based on many of same philosophies that Anoox was formed into a non-profit Search engine & Social network. And just like we are interested to launch a for-profit spin-off from Anoox non-profit, OpenAI launched a for-profit version called OpenAI LP™ since a non-profit internet company is just not financially viable given that a non-profit is primary dependent on donations and one just cannot reliably rely on donations to operate and grow a tech company with its immense expenses for hardware and for qualified talent whom will only go to companies that are properly funded.

Although we would like to build this new Start-Up based on both the Social network & Search engine offerings, we are open to the idea of dropping the Search engine from this new company and focusing on the Social network part only, if you are of the position that it would take too much to fund a Search engine, which indeed is the case. This is a decision we look froward to make with you our lead investor

We will take Steps to set the for profit version of Anoox apart and allow it to grow rapidly with Public support behind Us

• We will focus on connecting people in new ways such as our state of the art Instant Messenger
• We will focus on preserving freedom of expression, while addressing spread of fake news and hate messages
• We will not track you, ever, and respect Peoples data as being theirs - privacy simplified
• We will be a B Corps and adhere to strict Climate Change standards
• Anoox non-profit will have 5% equity of this new for-profit version of Anoox for giving it all its Source code for Free. So as the for-profit version grows due to having received funding, it can support the Research efforts of the non-profit version

In 2008, 3 Years after Anoox was formed, came DuckDuckGo™ Search engine and they emulated one of the key aspects of Anoox, that is We do NOT Track you and to date DuckDuckGo
has raised $175 Mill and has Multi-Billion Dollar Valuation

In 2007, 2 Years after Anoox was formed, Reddit™ Social network offically launched and they emulated one of the key manifestos of Anoox Social network, that is we are home to the most open and authentic conversations on the internet and Reddit raised $1.3 billion in VC funding and recently had its IPO at $6.5 Billion valuation

In 2009, 4 Years after Anoox was formed, WhatsApp™ Instant Messenger was launched and at its initial release WhatsApp™ was not as feature rich or stable as Anoox Instant Messenger ("AIM") was, and WhatsApp™ went to raise $60 Mill in VC funding and was acquired by Facebook™ (now Meta™) for $19 Billion valuation
