PRYNTD.xyz

Equity Crowdfunding in 2021
Pryntd allows creators and audiences to create, interact, share and monetise 2D, 3D and 4D experiences that can be images, videos and livestreams, making it accessible on smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs and AR VR devices. People pay for this because it adds value to their processes, products and services. 4D allows time-based interactions embedded in images, videos and live-streaming experiences, making it ideal for use cases beyond content creation. A great example is how it is used to treat dementia patients, make them more independent, and improve their treatment. The ease of use makes it possible for the patients, their caregivers and relatives to create immersive interactive memories, allowing their caregivers to monitor and interact with them using 360 livestreams remotely and even for the training of caregivers. It works on the native browsers of smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs, and AR VR devices. Users can upload, embed and go live in 2D, 3D and 4D with just one button. The beauty of 4D is that creators have been content creators, caregivers, doctors, and lawyers using the technology to add value to their processes, products and services. The biggest problem in immersive experiences is the fragmentation of technologies, such as AR, VR, MR, 3D, XR, Spatial, NERF, Metaverse, digital twins, virtual tours, and so much more. There is an exhaustive list of names and uses of technologies in the sector, which add much more value if converging. The convergence of this tech is what makes 4D experiences possible. Immersive technologies can save businesses billions of dollars annually, and improve project planning by 75%. According to Meta, 3D is preferred by 93% of Gen Zs and can solve the behavioural-targeted advertising problem by making contextual advertising feasible and sustainable and so much more.

Psonar

Equity Crowdfunding in 2015
Psonar is a digital jukebox in the Cloud - bringing streaming music to people aged 12-25 worldwide with a unique payment model - Pay Per Play. With an expanding catalogue of over 600,000 tracks, a licence agreed with the largest major label and distribution partnerships with app store operators and social networks, Psonar is positioned to be the global music service of choice for teens and younger adults. Psonar is optimised for mobile with adaptive HTML5, iOS and Android apps. Music fans, especially those under 25, increasingly access music through mobile phones. Freemium streaming services (such as Spotify) aren't available on mobile and other free services, such as YouTube, are sub-optimal (annoying ads, poor playlist support, unavailable tracks and mixed quality). These fans want to access popular tracks easily, want to build playlists and share or gift them and want value for money. There are over 400 million active music fans in this demographic in the G20 countries. Pay Per Play - fans pay, typically, 1p / 1c / 1€c per play paying via mobile (contract or pre-pay) or by debit/credit card. They can gift plays to other people for the same price. Other digital services (gaming sites, virtual worlds, dating sites, online quizzes etc) can offer their users access to Pay Per Play music through the Psonar API (2 sites are building Psonar Pay Per Play into their services and several more are planning to do so) at the same price. Payments are made through the Bango platform. Psonar is the only internet music service offering pay as you go access to streaming music and has negotiated a unique licence with the world's largest music group as well as over 20 independent distributors. Users can access Psonar through an adaptive HTML5 web app or via native apps for iOS (available in the app store) and Android. Both apps have tight Facebook integration including login and personalised recommendations (derived from Facebook's OpenGraph API). Psonar's native Android app (in private beta currently) has been developed with input from both Facebook and Google and and will be released in early 2013. Psonar has a US business process patent application filed which is in examination currently.
