LEAD-INVESTOR:IN
Nicholas Cator
I’ve been investing in consumer products companies for 15 years in companies
such as Chewy, Byju’s & Lazada and for the last 10 I have been focusing amongst
others on companies that are doing right for the planet. I was an early investor
in Oatly, and was part of its meteoric rise to success. And I love platforms
that tackle a specific vertical, bringing consumers and brands together. Vikas
and his team have built the best online platform for the vegan space and I think
the opportunity to grow into the most recognized brand in sustainability
globally is a real possibility. I’m amazed at what his team sitting in Singapore
have achieved in the last 2-3 years, building a global platform that’s being
used all around the world, by people and by over 200,000 companies. Building
user-generated content platforms and social networks is incredibly hard, and
it’s impressive how much growth and product market fit abillion has achieved.
I’m excited about seeing them grow into the largest social media platform for
good.

Our everyday choices, like the food we eat or the clothes we wear, add up to the
biggest failures and opportunities for people, animals and the environment.

abillion is the social marketplace dedicated to sustainability. We’re on a
mission to mobilize a billion people to save the planet, one meaningful
interaction at a time.

It’s no secret that our planet needs help. Millions of people want to make an
impact, but few know where to begin.

64% of consumers say products that are branded environmentally sustainable or
socially responsible add up to more than half of their purchases. And 83% of
consumers would shop more sustainably if they had more information about how
their purchases make an impact.

Many want to “live sustainably” - by adopting a plant-based diet, for example,
or buying from ethical manufacturers - but the market lacks an intuitive,
accessible tool that makes long-term personal change and finding trusted options
easy.


The solution? A social commerce platform that’s built by its community, with
authentic, user-generated content that informs, inspires and leads people to
make better choices about their products and the brands they support.

Say hello to abillion, the social commerce platform dedicated to making the
world a better place.

We’re creating a product that can mobilize a billion people to build a cleaner,
fairer planet - all through the inspiring power of community, content and
commerce. By connecting intentional consumers and sellers, abillion enables
anyone in the world to drive the sustainability movement forward.

We’re making it easy for consumers to shop and discover eco-friendly businesses,
while driving engagement with user-generated content from around the globe.

As a community driven by member-generated content, we've invested in building
product-market fit for the core user-experience, before building the bridges to
drive revenue at scale.

We don’t spend money on ads; instead, abillion prioritizes:

 * Community and product led growth
 * Onboarding, activation, and personalization
 * Gamification that creates real-world impact

Post our Series A in 2021, we have built and launched the two primary revenue
drivers for our business: our SaaS platform enabling brands to engage with the
abillion community, and our in-app marketplace, enabling a new generation of
entrepreneurs to create businesses that are better for the planet. We earn
annual subscription fees from premium tier SaaS customers and we earn a
commission on transactions on our marketplace. 

We have no costs relating to raw materials, manufacturing, inventory, shipping
or supply. We believe we’re on a clear strategic path to $56M in EBIT by 2026.

abillion is already building a tremendous global sustainability movement. The
abillion app has been downloaded 800K times across 180 countries, with a 4.9/5
average App Store rating. Our community-driven marketplace is available in 42
countries, including the U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece,
Singapore, and Australia.

93% of online purchases are influenced by a consumer review. With 2.5 million
authentic consumer reviews, abillion is becoming a global benchmark for
sustainability. We work with over 4,700 food & beverage and consumer products
brands to increase their visibility and build a strong brand reputation with a
high intent audience.

By partnering with abillion, brands can claim their listings and boost exposure
for their products to abillion members in-app and through abillion.com. Product
purchase links can be added for any product that’s sold online, whether direct
to consumer or through a brand’s retail partnerships.

SaaS subscribers can unlock paid features for marketing, analytics, purchase
links and additional functionalities to help grow their businesses on abillion.

abillion is positioned to directly challenge the multi-billion dollar
e-commerce, social media and utility markets as a first-mover platform tackling
sustainability.

With a 25-person team of finance and tech leaders from the world’s leading
finance, technology and consumer products companies, abillion is well positioned
for rapid growth.

abillion Founder and CEO Vikas Garg is a finance industry veteran and life-long
activist, devoting his efforts to creating educational opportunities for
disadvantaged youth in his hometown of New York City, and furthering animal
rights and welfare projects around the world. In creating abillion, Vikas united
his purpose with his work.

We've been featured in a number of lifestyle and corporate publications over the
past few years:

Bloomberg

Vegconomist

CNBC

Plant Based News

Tech In Asia

We’re building an organic flywheel with a low CAC – we’ve generated 20x content
user-generated growth in just the past two years. Our growth has been fueled by
a community that wants to create impact in the world.

Retention is one of the best metrics to understand the potential of a
product. Our retention numbers indicate strong product-market fit because
we solve many pain points for our members, people that have chosen to live more
sustainably but are lacking options, guidance or a community rallying around
them. For our engagers and content creators, retention numbers are double -
sometimes triple - that of the leading social platforms like Instagram and
Twitter.


Our team is raising from a position of excellence.

Since our launch we’ve raised $16M from venture capital funds including 500
Global, Blue Horizon, SDG Impact Japan, and 1/0 Capital. Angels from Google,
Twitter, Goldman Sachs and more have invested, too.

And today we want to open our doors so that anyone can invest in abillion. We’re
raising capital to bring on the next million members and power our team with
more sales, product, and software talent.

Join us in mobilizing a billion people to make better choices for the planet.
