LettsGroup HQ
2024 has been a transformative year for LettsGroup. Its initial cohort of 5 branded ventures have all launched in their respective markets and the group's groundbreaking AI VentureFactory was released to outside ventures, beyond its own branded ventures. As a result, the group will expand its advisory board in preparation for its ventures moving from startup to scale-up. Advisory board members input to group strategy, as well as guiding and mentoring branded and partner ventures through their stages of growth - we call it co-piloting. With the AI VentureFactory available in limited release to outside ventures, today we announce EAglobal joining the platform. The NewsFlash is extending coverage to this agentic AI company accelerating corporate diligence processes. LettsGroup is getting regularly approached by entrepreneurs and investors interested in signing up to the platform.
LettsCore
LettsCore has made significant progress in 2024, and the next generation Web3 content and media management platform is busy building out its public website in preparation for lower-friction, online customer acquisition and onboarding later in Q1 2025. In December the team continued development of LettsCore's SaaS system with deeper integration of organisational pricing options inside each content atom. They've gained access to Magic Eden api’s and initial work is underway to create a Solana standard NFT Collection and Items, with auto-distribution built in. Following this, LettsCore will add support for OpenSea. The team has built out its integration documentation ready to support their 2nd corporate customer as they will begin work integrating LettsCore into their news publishing system.
LettsNews
The LettsNews team has been focused on making its software available in full public beta from January 2025 . LettsNews delivers simple, yet powerful newsroom tech for journalists, corporate content managers and small and medium media companies. Its private beta has been successfully completed proving its subscription-based web app, supported with fully sync'd mobile apps, is highly effective at rapidly gathering news in-office or in the field, and running the editorial-to-publishing process with team inputs and approvals prior to auto-distribution to leading news sites. Its 2025 roadmap will include auto-posting to social media sites post news distribution, AI enabled headlines, summaries and tags, company subscription plans and development of its news content marketplace in beta.
LettsArt
LettsArt has completed its startup phase, with hundreds of galleries and thousands of users adopting its no-code AI software. It has proven that customers sign up at scale, its product/market fit and early revenues and KPI's - with its early adopter, emerging artist customers wanting to sell art better online with a branded art gallery. From next year the company will scale revenues through higher value customers - both high selling artists, commercial gallerists and art dealers. We highlight one artist that personifies LettsArt's roots with ambitious, emerging artists. Soft Wasp is a post-modern street-style artist using LettsArt's software to build and manage a commercial gallery that sells his art on canvases. There is a certain 'Banksy' about him. His prices are attractive and he is highly prolific. His gallery has 100's of artworks on show and a number available for purchase.

LettsSafari
LettsSafari is gaining attention as the nascent nature-tech sector begins to form. Its subscription-based digital offering is building a quiet movement around mass market rewilding. Its early adopter subscribers, including nature leaders, green entrepreneurs and influencers are increasingly attracted to its novel approach to eco-services. Word of mouth is extending to the US, Europe and into Africa. Its on the ground action, with its own network of safari parks, its pioneering smaller-scale rewilding system, and its digital, mediatech wrapper is naturally suited to a wide geographic audience focused on nature restoration and rewilding.
EAglobal
EAglobal is the latest 'partner venture' to have adopted LettsGroup's AI VentureFactory to help it scale-up more efficiently than otherwise possible, which is important given the considerable market interest for its form-filling AI platform that completes diligence questionnaire's (DDQs) regardless of format. The team is led by the ex-head of AI at Fidelity. This UK-based agentic AI company offers its solution to B2B companies receiving DDQ questionnaires from their customers - including ESG disclosures. We're excited to welcome EAglobal to the growing network of LettsGroup ventures - delivering higher venture success rates and better returns.

The likes of Paul Graham from Y Combinator and Brian Chesky of Airbnb swear by 'Founder Mode'. It's a friendly way to say that corporate managers are crap and founders should trust their control freakish tendencies. After all, it did wonders for Steve Jobs.
At the moment details are a little sketchy other than 'ditch the corporate mumbo-jumbo jargon folk'! You know, the empty suits with Adidas Campus sneakers - and manage from the middle (we added that) with tonnes of reports and control. Do what your gut tells you, just not the Sam Bankman-Fried kinda gut.
The Mafia have apparently been practising 'Founder Mode' for ages. They call it 'keeping it in the family'...

LettsGroup HQ
A month after LettsGroup launched its AI VentureFactory to a wider audience it has already started onboarding 3rd party ventures. Its hybrid-AI approach, its software suite for early stage tech-driven companies and the approach to co-piloted 'startup intelligence' is clearly appealing. LettsGroup is excited to bring its unique approach to system-driven scaling and automated demand creation to more entrepreneurs. A number of entrepreneurs and investors have registered , even while the AI VentureFactory is in limited release. From a technology perspective the team has been developing automated connectors between widgets, processes, commands and end-apps to further extend its AI driven automation. Watch this space.
LettsCore
As LettsCore starts the planning to onboard its 2nd corporate customer, the Media-as-a-Service platform has been busy extending its technology further, including organisational management - invite / edit / remove users to organisations, plus adding content atom pricing support for media owners, enabling a single billing account to manage the purchase of content by any user within the organisation. This functionality includes the full range of pricing/monetisation options, with perpetual and per-use based pricing fully integrated to the user's wallet. The team has been researching auto-distribution of NFT content directly into NFT market places. Magic Eden and OpenSea will be first up. Also, LettsCore's web based customer onboarding system is nearing completion for wider roll-out in Q1 2025.

LettsNews
LettsNews has nearly completed V1 ready for full beta release in January. The team have worked hard to complete the functionality necessary to get its simple, yet powerful newsroom tech to freelancers and SME's, with software that automates the process from news gathering, story development, tagging, search, virtual team collaboration and approvals through to filing, publishing, archiving and auto news distribution. The roadmap for V2 has been mapped out, to include AI news creation, tagging, AI connectors, advanced search, AI 'Content Item' suggestions, an enterprise subscription plan and a groundbreaking news item marketplace. Users can register for LettsNews beta release with its web app synced to the mobile app to be released on the Google Play Store and App Store by January.
LettsArt
LettsArt had a stellar month in November, with 2 new art galleries a day signing up to its no-code AI software platform (just 12 months after its soft launch). LettsArt is heading towards 800 artists and gallerists using its software to manage, distribute and sell art. Early subscription and transaction revenues are shaping and the art available at galleries using LettsArt is increasingly diverse and appealing - with multiple price points. Its nearly 2,500 users are becoming a valuable engine for viral, organic growth enabling LettsArt to scale efficiently. Hundreds of artworks were added to LettsArt galleries last week alone. In early 2025 LettsArt will deliver auto-distribution of NFTart from its dashboard to other leading NFT marketplaces. It has become the most advanced software to fully support any kinds of art - both physical and digital.
LettsSafari & LettsRetreat
LettsSafari has just kicked off its first digital advertising campaign for climate enthusiasts to subscribe to its platform. Being National Tree Week, LettsSafari has been running a series to educate its subscribers about planting and nurturing trees for wildlife. Next week the team will spend 4 days in its parks planting out new trees - a mix of deciduous 5 year old trees grown in designated areas in LettsSafari parks using their rewilding system. Meanwhile, LettsRetreat is gearing up for a busy Christmas and early bookings for company retreats and stays in 2025.

LettsGroup HQ
In October LettsGroup's AI VentureFactory was offered in limited release to select 3rd party startups, scale-ups and corporate incubators. Already utilised by LettsGroup's own branded ventures, the AI VentureFactory is now ready to co-pilot outside companies. Its startup methodology, venture building tools and processes, are proven over many years and with multiple tech-driven startups. It can transform both innovation delivery and financing - doubling venture success rates while considerably enhancing returns. Businesses beyond Seed investment and venture backers can register at https://letts.group/register/. Also this month the team has been expanding its software suite with investor management and comms capabilities. Next up is transactional extensions which will provide interesting new opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors.
LettsCore
LettsCore's tech team have been working on its content monetisation and customer subscription system as it moves to wider commercial release, developing subscription plans (partnering with Stripe), and setting pricing contracts for each piece of content - both perpetual licenses and pay per view contracts. These are working nicely - particularly pay per view which decrements wallet balances in real time as content is viewed. This opens up opportunities for content owners and creators to offer their content to AI LLM learning engines, that can be charged each time the content is utilised in the learning process. November will be finalising the UX flow for the SaaS front end and developing the approach to NFT auto-distribution onto 3rd party marketplaces. At the same time, LettsCore's first corporate customer is expanding its roll-out while the blockchain-based distributed media platform is getting ready to onboard its second corporate customer.
LettsNews
LettsNews is also busy readying for wider beta release to targeted journalists, corporate comms and PR firms. The team is getting its mobile app ready for wider release into the Google Play and Apple App stores while enhancing the web app. Over the last 6 months the private beta has delivered enough feedback to build a robust commercial V1 offering earlier than expected. The way in which LettsNews handles the news content process from gathering news, to publishing and auto-distribution is both highly efficient and innovative. The Team functionality links this process from corporate content managers to PR's and selected journalists and news publishers which can drive significant efficiencies across the industry. The next leg of the product to V2 will deliver AI enhancements and content monetisation with a news item content store. The combination could prove to be quite pivotal for its users.
LettsArt
LettsArt has approaching 700 art and artist galleries using its no-code AI platform with over 2,000 users in total. Various enhancements across its AI capabilities and art community features mean that LettsArt V2 is now ready for prime time - going from startup to scale-up and into Stage 4 of LettsGroup's venture building methodology Innov@te. In preparation, LettsArt has developed an algorithm to highlight some of its featured gallery users and is also readying for a mixed-gallery display of featured art from some of its leading gallery customers.
LettsSafari and LettsRetreat
LettsGroup's two emerging eco ventures have made solid strides in October. LettsSafari has just kicked off its first digital ad campaign expanding its paid subscribers and commercial KPI's in advance of wider market expansion later in 2025. It has started working with Wimbledon Park, amongst others, to develop a network for historic tree seed banks across the UK with other well known parks. LettsRetreat has just launched an innovative subscription membership programme ideally suited for organisations interested in eco retreats for their teams and as incentives for top performing employees. Members can subscribe to eco retreat stays for 5 days a year for teams up to 14 people at just £399 per month - find out more here.

September was spent extending LettsGroup's AI VentureFactory with new investor management capabilities adding automated investor marketing, communications and CRM. As a result we have integrated LettsNews, as the core investor communications system and Hubspot for investor email marketing and CRM, into the VentureFactory's AI software suite. It's similar to Oracle apps but for startup businesses and investors. We have also been busy behind the scenes getting ready to launch an 'innovation' AI Chatbot for entrepreneurs and investors which goes live in October. In the next months LettsGroup will be adding some impressive new team members.
This month LettsCore has continued to focus on optimising system performance essential to its core technical USP of concurrently linking and managing content, creators, owners, organisations and applications at massive scale with lower compute costs . The engineering team has implemented a sophisticated asynchronous write module which delivers fast scalable write performance, along with optimised caching for blazing read performance. These changes have been tested with our first corporate customer outperforming its instance of Google Firebase on both read and write tasks. Development is continuing on the SaaS dashboard for this groundbreaking new distributed media management platform with the team starting to build wallet management elements to enable LettsCore users to view their transactions in their wallet, port their own wallet into LettsCore, and transact initially on the Solana blockchain - sending Sol, as example, to another wallet.
LettsNews has also been focused on performance and optimising speed from news gathering to publishing, distribution and revenues. Indeed, the team believes that its software can cut cycle times and increase efficiency many times beyond what is currently available in the news publishing space - all while providing rapid team sharing and review, sign off and distribution to multiple news outlets and digital media sites. Indeed this NewsFlash went from creation to publishing and distribution across numerous media and email newsletters with just 3 clicks. LettsNews is currently working on company subscriptions to go beyond its freelance and single user plan for journalists, PR's and content managers.
LettsArt's no-code AI software now powers 626 art and artist galleries plus approaching 1,400 art collectors. Thousands of artworks have been uploaded with many more added on a daily basis. With LettsArt V2 fully released artists are using its AI more widely, principally to generate curator quality descriptions and tags for their art. New community features are going down well, with gallerists and artists communicating better with their followers and collectors. LettsArt's Post feature with auto-generated email newsletters is also proving popular. LettsArt's users are increasingly depending on its subscription software to sell art better. The team are currently working on extending auto-distribution to include 3rd party art marketplaces which would be an industry first.
LettsSafari inspired us all last week with its announcement about endangered water voles thriving across its rewilding safari parks. Their fascinating approach to smaller-scale rewilding, delivering private safari parks and gardens en masse, was brought to life by this successful conservation project in a small setting with one of the UK's most recognised wildlife breeders. It's interesting to note that biodiversity and wildlife trends delivered at LettsSafari parks seem to find their way into the wider conscience including venues like the Chelsea Flower Show just a few years later. LettsSafari is becoming a living lab for biodiversity solutions and rewilding techniques. Its subscription-based digital platform is proving quite an innovation in itself. LettsSafari.com starts its UK wide digital ad campaign to climate enthusiasts from next month.
Talking of subscription economy innovations LettsRetreat launched a compelling subscription offering for its members. The membership plan gives exclusive access to an entire eco estate for 5 days a year. Kind of like Soho House but in the wild. An initiative designed for families, friends and teams to retreat. Their approach to blending historic architecture, eco surroundings and open-air art seems ideally designed for long weekend breaks and team retreats.
We highlight a few of our ventures in each monthly edition of The LettsGroup NewsFlash. To explore other LettsGroup ventures go to LettsGroup/ventures.
The reintroduction of water voles in Britain has become a critical part of the country's rewilding efforts, aiming to restore ecosystems that have been significantly damaged over time. Water voles, often referred to as "Ratty" from Kenneth Grahame’s The Wind in the Willows, were once widespread across Britain.
A project to reintroduce water voles a few years ago, at LettsSafari parks , even including Exeter's Capability Brown gardens, has been quite a success. As a result we have worked on continuing to extend our wetland areas to widen their habitat. Now our central bog and wetland areas cover over 5 acres.
Water voles are an important keystone species in wetland ecosystems. They create complex burrow systems and eat large amounts of aquatic plants, which helps to manage wetland vegetation. This behaviour contributes to healthier waterways by maintaining plant diversity and reducing overgrowth, which in turn supports a broader range of wildlife.
A lesser-known fact about water voles is their fascinating ability to engineer their habitat by creating "rafts" out of floating vegetation. These rafts are used by water voles not only for feeding but also as vantage points to avoid predators. Water voles are highly skilled swimmers and will construct these floating platforms by intertwining plant material such as reeds and grasses. This behaviour demonstrates their adaptability and resourcefulness in navigating their watery environments.
Additionally, water voles have a unique way of communicating through scent. They possess specialised glands located on their flanks, which they rub against objects like grass or stones to mark their territory. These scent markings help maintain their social structure and signal presence to other water voles in the area.
One of the standout successes in reintroducing water voles occurred at LettsSafari's rewilding centre in Devon, led by conservationist Derek Gow. Gow, a leading figure in water vole conservation, has been instrumental in captive breeding and reintroduction programs across the UK.
At Mamhead Park South, Gow’s team released hundreds of water voles into carefully managed habitats. These efforts have been part of broader restoration activities aimed at improving the biodiversity of the area and encouraging a healthier ecosystem. The reintroduction of water voles at LettsSafari parks exemplifies the power of rewilding in the UK. These initiatives are not just about restoring a single species but rebuilding entire ecosystems.
The success of water vole reintroductions offers hope for the future of Britain’s wetlands and highlights the importance of continuing to protect and restore natural landscapes for the benefit of both wildlife and people. Plus, what could be more enjoyable than the sight of a water vole tip toeing on shimmering wetlands in the golden sunset.
LettsSafari is on a mission to build rewilding safari parks across the UK. To become a LettsSafari Member go to LettsSafari.com .

It's been a busy summer for LettsGroup and its ventures. Its AI VentureFactory is nearly 6 months into internal release and with its first cohort of ventures. It supports the entire venture building process from idea to exit using the Innov@te methodology and its 7 core stages, 49 steps and 100's of sub steps. The software platform for early stage ventures and investors provides a suite of integrated apps, templates and tools with AI throughout. It is designed to double venture success rates, reduce the cost of venture building and scale ventures more effectively. Most recently the team have been expanding key processes in the platform, including deeper tech and automation from data to customer feedback to product enhancements, plus faster customer data to CRM and a new, developing approach to business planning, financial forecasting and investor marketing.
August was a breakthrough month for LettsCore. After going live on the public blockchain and across the IPFS, this new gen distributed media management platform is already logging faster 'read' times than traditional media with lower compute costs. Its first corporate customer is switching out of its traditional CMS platform and is fully connected to LettsCore's API's and began to roll out its first cohort of users. The engineering team delivered enhanced update speeds and rate limiting capability which led to a 10 fold improvement in both read and write performance. Its first customer is stress testing the platform with, initially, hundreds of users and thousands of content items. The team extended the SaaS dashboard to include a Public Content View, My Content View, Organisation Content View, Application Content View and Application and Organisation Setup - preparing for smaller and mid sized media customers to sign up and get going all online later in Q4.
LettsNews' private beta is almost complete and ready to go live in public beta at the end of September. This new software platform to deliver advanced, cost effective newsroom tech to any journalist, content manager or publisher is already generating early revenues which is very positive. LettsNews 1.0 is basically complete having implemented subscription management, payments, team chat for each 'Content Item' or 'Story' and advanced search. The next few weeks will focus on UX and UI enhancements alongside final preparations and product performance prior to public beta. The LettsNews team have a clear vision to build a software company that can genuinely change the business process and economics of the news industry. It fundamentally alters the way in which news is gathered, published and distributed providing strong cost benefits and alternative revenue sources to its users.
9 months after LettsArt's market launch the art-tech venture is growing at quite a pace. Already 575 art galleries use its software to manage, distribute and sell art with more than 1 new art gallery signing up a day. This subscription based, no-code AI platform helps its users sell art more effectively, generating transaction fees for the platform. A growing number of galleries have already upgraded their subscription plan, building early subscription revenues. LettsArt 2, a major software upgrade released last month, is proving to be a commercial success attracting quality independent art and artist galleries and accelerating the process of building an online gallery with modern software to manage a professional, scalable art business. LettsArt 2 offers a host of new features including multi-art shows and sales, AI generated artwork descriptions, AI generated tags on artworks, AI generated posts based on featured art, AI generated art from text prompts and an upgraded AI help system. Galleries using LettsArt software have attracted over 1,200 collectors and even more followers. This burgeoning $550bn industry is in need of a technology driven shake up. LettsArt is well positioned to help make that happen.
LettsSafari is out of extended beta and gearing up for its full market launch in October. This digital, subscription based climate venture has had quite an impressive beta launch attracting 600 subscribers with zero external marketing. Its promise of 'building rewilding safari parks with you' looks quite timely. The team's expertise in smaller-scale, mass market rewilding is unparalleled. We are excited about its new Company subscriptions and a higher tier 'Patron' offering for individual subscribers. Their technique for natural tree growth. planting for enhanced carbon storage and the very concept of eco wild spaces in miniature is quite alluring. Their established rewilding safari parks and gardens are a sight to see.
We highlight a few of our ventures in each monthly edition of The LettsGroup NewsFlash. To explore other LettsGroup ventures go to LettsGroup/ventures.
