LettsGroup HQ
LettsGroup had a busy January extending the AI VentureFactory with added features, onboarding processes and pricing plans for new users, while also migrating its venture building process, Innov@te, to a more advanced platform, including a wiki-type system with AI. The team continue to extend the installed AI apps and infrastructure, while adding more connectors across core business processes - getting to a level of automation that can fundamentally alter venture-building economics. The power of the AI VentureFactory will be further tested this year as LettsGroup's more developed 'branded ventures' begin recruiting dedicated, specialist leaders to take them beyond startup, through scale-up, with the AI VentureFactory acting as the bridge from the first-start team to the scale-up team.
LettsNews
LettsNews launched in beta last week offering 'newsroom tech for everyone' . It had a strong first week with a number of businesses signing up. Alongside its fully featured web app, which is now available to everyone, LettsNews is adding mobile apps for Android and Apple devices in the coming weeks. The mediatech Cloud software company offers 4 paid single user subscription plans, and will be adding a Company plan. The platform adopts a viral growth model as users invite co-workers, freelancers and agencies to their LettsNews Teams to share news items and stories, gathering inputs, copy edits and sign-off's for stories prior to release with LettsNews' auto-distribution tech. Any journalist, writer, content manager or PR can now sign up to LettsNews' web app at LettsNews.com.
LettsCore
LettsCore, the web3 distributed media platform, started building its full commercial website ready for market launch later in Q1. The team also completed the platform's subscription plans and billing mechanisms with a pricing model that reflects the underlying economics of web3 - similar to other leading blockchain platforms. They have also implemented individual subscription wallets for every subscriber so their accounts can be auto topped-up following subscription payment and one-off credit purchases. The platform offers flexible pricing with 3 tiers for individuals, plus a company plan with secure, managed top-up for higher levels of activity / content and larger teams. This work continues through February delivering integrated subscription / top-up directly in the SaaS portal. Further to this the team implemented NFT minting and auto-distribution to Magic Eden's NFT Marketplace - a leading marketplace for Solana NFT content.

LettsArt
LettsArt now has over 800 artist and art galleries using its subscription based, no-code AI software platform. A year after its market launch LettsArt is increasingly establishing itself as the all-in-one platform for artists and gallerists. In conventional art marketplaces, artists often struggle to stand out and connect directly with potential buyers. LettsArt turns this model on its head by providing each artist or gallerist with their own independent online gallery. From managing and distributing art to coordinating sales and managing collectors, LettsArt consolidates all of these once-siloed tasks into a single, streamlined dashboard. It's early validation with emerging artists will be extended in 2025 to higher value customers including professional studios, commercial galleries and art dealers.
EA Global AI
EA Global AI, which pioneers 'autofill' technology for company reporting, had their busiest month yet in January, with 2 enterprise customers, Hogan Lovells and Novartis, and 5 SMEs entering trials. Another 7 companies will kick off trials in February. On top of this, EA was featured in Asia Media’s ESG Investor publication. The senior team uses LettsGroup's AI VentureFactory to automate and accelerate processes, currently focused on organic and content marketing (with LettsNews in the stack) while also streamlining its SME onboarding, aiming to complete this in Q1, to increase capacity and confidently acquire smaller customers at scale and with lower friction.
LettsSafari
LettsSafari enjoyed a large jump in subscribers over the Christmas period and into January. This pioneering rewilding and nature restoration platform now boasts many known wildlife and conservation experts and influencers as subscribers, which should serve it well as it starts to extend its reach and capabilities. It has exciting plans for 2025. For any land owner or wildlife enthusiast that dreams of building their own mini rewilding safari park - here's how!
