<p><b>Startup description</b></p><p>An AI EdTech SaaS that was founded to deal with the issue of hallucinated citations / references. The product has experienced rapid growth in ~2.5 months since launch, scaling to $2,758 MRR. It's able to detect fake citations with very high accuracy and finds the best possible replacement paper for any fakes. It also has the functionality to find the best fitting citations for any argument or text excerpt.</p><p>The platform has immense B2B potential. Universities have confirmed they are not using the AI detection features of Turnitin / other software due to unreliability, and one has confirmed they are manually checking for fake citations on suspect submissions. This tool in its current form could automate that entire process and solve the AI detection issue, presenting a huge B2B opportunity.</p><p><b>Key highlights:<b></b></b></p><ul><li>$2,758 MRR</li><li>$33,096 ARR (extrapolated / projected)</li><li>83% net profit margin</li><li>36.4% churn</li><li>16,000+ email subscribers</li><li>Launched a little over 2 months ago</li></ul><p><b>Team</b></p><p>The team is just me as founder - I have full responsibility.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><p>Next.jsReactTypeScriptTailwind CSSFirebaseStripeGoogle Analytics.</p><p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>100% of growth to date has been organic - there has been no marketing spend on paid ads or influencers.</p><ul><li>Tiktok and Instagram have been the 2 platforms utilised</li><li>No other channels attempted yet (X, Youtube Shorts, Reddit etc)</li><li>Affiliate platform just launched, but not utilised yet</li><li>No SEO attempted</li></ul><p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><p>Everything related to the financials of your project (ARR/MRR, profit, CAC, LTV, Retention, Churn, GMV, and other important metrics based on your project type).</p><p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>With the correct team, this project could reach $10k MRR in 3 months and $50k MRR in 12 months, as validated by the CEO and Founder of an EdTech with $5m ARR.
