Lets get concrete

OK so summary of progress:

We have 6 paying customers, two ProductHunt launches driving traffic (both top 10). We joined the latest cohort of the RIOT Accelerator Program and the FoundersTrec “Elite 8 program” (8 best veteran based companies in the US that are pre-seed). Key points in funnel order:

1.) Launched our live platform and have onboarded paying customers.

2.) 21 Feb We launched on Product Hunt and got Hashtag inventor Chis Messina (#1 Product Hunter in the world) to hunt us!

3.) Since high at PH launch of 34 Monthly Active Accounts (MAA) we have retained 13 Weekly Active Accounts (WAA)

4.) 6 Paid, accounts: Piacet, a Covid-19 vaccination tracking app (still in beta- we are onboarding its 10K+ users right now). A Alzheimer's tracking app, Piece, a social giving app, Off Duty Blue an overtime and extra duty management app for first responders, and Rootly, a YC Cohort Summer 2021 SRE SaaS tool, all as paying early adopters.

5.) USAF Contract: A powerful logo to build trust in us, and deliver $40k in revenue at once.

6.) Ongoing Customer discovery: we have talked to even more potential customers, more businesses, more developers. During one of these conversations with a North Carolina based App Development firm, they were so convinced of the opportunity that they not only signed up to be a customer but invested $45K into Rownd.

7.) In addition, we partnered with a professional polling company to get deeper insights about the overall direction Data Privacy is going in the US to create focused advertising and to help us create a better product.

8.) Active fundraising to fuel our mission : 1/6 Seed funding committed.
