Highlights


  • Modern financial planning & wealth management platform accessible to all
  • Disrupting the $52B+ US financial planning market
  • Raised $1.4M in a pre-seed round from 1,000+ investors

Problem


Financial planning & wealth management is broken

  • 😢 Money should be easy—Money management & investing are purposefully kept obtuse (the more complicated, the more middlemen are needed).
  • 💸 Incentives are broken—Financial services and investment management fees to "help" customers range from thousands to millions.
  • 🔥 Retirement isn't the goal—Consumers are no longer satisfied with the outcomes of  "traditional" retirement, and want to know how to gain financial independence in the prime of their lives.

Solution


Modern financial planning & wealth management tools accessible to everyone

  • ‍🏫 Tools that teach—Empowerment through software and education
  • 🔭 See the future—Set goals and see the path to reaching financial independence
  • 🚫 No middlemen—Investment management without the middleman

Product


Consumer-focused
financial management

  • Centralized financial, asset, equity, loan, and account management

Customers


Maybe is for anyone who wants control over their financial future

Maybe was created to answer consumers' desires for a modern financial suite. In fact, many of our users were already hacking their own tools together. We’re simply a next logical choice for concerned millennials looking to solve their financial confusions with a modern, technology-focused offering. We aren’t a budgeting tool or a simple stock tracker—it's the entire view of your finances and investments that helps clients understand where they've been and where they’re going.

Business model


Maybe charges a monthly/annual SaaS fee

  • 💰 Flat monthly/annual recurring fee for access to a suite of tools
  • 🚫 No assets under management fees. Clear pricing based on feature usage.
  •  😡 No harassing the user to upsell on financial services

Maybe utilizes a flat monthly/annual recurring fee for access to our suite of tools.

We provide clear pricing based on feature usage, not assets under management. We won’t be a middleman to other financial upsells like credit cards, insurance, or mortgages. We also will never harass the user to upsell them on financial services.

We’re intentionally incentivizing ourselves to build an amazing suite of tools worth paying for.

Market


A multi-billion dollar market, ripe for disruption

Maybe is starting with the $52B+ US financial planning market with a projected 3.5% growth in 2021...a market dominated by over 263,000 financial advisors, which Maybe will replace.

That’s just the US market—we plan to support users all over the world. Financial management has become increasingly democratized. We believe that all ages and income levels can benefit from methodical, technology-enabled financial advice, not just the wealthy.

Competition


Out with the old, in with the new

  • 💼 Financial advisors—Incentivized towards complexity. Use outdated, unnecessarily difficult software with their clients.
  • 📄 Spreadsheets—Difficult to set up, time-consuming to manage, and ripe for mistakes
  • 🤖 Robo-advisors—Don’t solve the issue of financial literacy. You’re still left unempowered and overcharged for asset management fees.

Vision and strategy


Maybe will launch the tools needed to visualize financial futures

  • We're offering a holistic approach to financial management.
  • Accounting for things like income, savings, returns, inflation, historical data and time, we believe we can show customers what’s financially possible when they ask “Maybe?” about their finances.
  • Using this round of funding, we’ll be able to start answering the maybe’s of their life with our suite of financial planning & wealth management tools.

Funding


Raising $2M in SAFE

Using this round of funding, we’ll be able to start answering the “maybes” of life with our suite of financial planning and wealth management tools. We have a $10M valuation cap.

We previously raised a $1.4M pre-seed round via Republic Reg CF, AngelList RUV and the founder.

FAQ

What must I do to receive my equity or cash in the event of the conversion of my Crowd SAFE?

What must I do to receive my equity or cash in the event of the conversion of my Crowd SAFE?

Suppose the Company converts the Crowd SAFE as a result of an equity financing. In that case, you must open a custodial account with the custodian and sign subscription documentation to receive the equity securities. The Company will notify you of the conversion trigger, and you must complete necessary documentation within 30 days of such notice. If you do not complete the required documentation with that time frame, you will only be able to receive an amount of cash equal to (or less in some circumstances) your investment amount. Unclaimed cash will be subject to relevant escheatment laws. For more information, see the Crowd SAFE for this offering.


If the conversion of the Crowd SAFE is triggered as a result of a Liquidity Event (e.g. M&A or an IPO), then you will be required to select between receiving a cash payment (equal to your investment amount or a lesser amount) or equity.  You are required to make your selection (and complete any relevant documentation) within 30 days of such receiving notice from the Company of the conversion trigger, otherwise you will receive the cash payment option, which will be subject to relevant escheatment laws. The equity consideration varies depending on whether the Liquidity Event occurs before or after an equity financing. For more information, see the Crowd SAFE for this offering.
