Chapter 3: What is the current pricing model for Procesio's services?

63.256 - 68.121 Nathan Latka

No code is a hot space. Tell me who's buying your product. Yes, it is.

0

68.782 - 92.37 Marianne Avoiku

Actually, we are building a no-code and low-code approach to classic coding, but we are for technical mindset. So the system is used by companies that have, let's say, a technical department or for the software development companies that build software and provide outcomes to customers. So we are a bit technical as a mindset.

0

92.951 - 96.255 Nathan Latka

I see. And so what are customers paying you on average to use the technology?

Chapter 4: How much capital has Procesio raised and what is their funding strategy?

97.872 - 108.772 Marianne Avoiku

Yes, they're paying us, but I must say that we just launched and have like four clients paying customers and starting to build our pipeline of sales.

0

109.153 - 112.118 Nathan Latka

That's awesome. Okay. So four customers, how much are they paying per month?

0

112.958 - 123.677 Marianne Avoiku

In total, like 5K, and we are having like 1,000K in pipeline, and we are hoping to close this year with 50K.

0

124.458 - 130.008 Nathan Latka

So you have five customers paying on average $1,000 a month, so $5,000 in monthly recurring revenue?

0

130.168 - 137.481 Marianne Avoiku

Sorry, not for a month. It's annual recurring revenue because we are selling only annual recurring revenue.

137.461 - 143.587 Nathan Latka

Got it. So you have five customers paying $400 a month and you're doing about five, which is about... Like that.

Chapter 5: What is the valuation Procesio is targeting in their next funding round?

144.909 - 156.441 Nathan Latka

Huh? Like that. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So five customers total pay $400 a month altogether. So you're doing about $5,000 in ARR. Yep. That's exciting.

Chapter 6: How does Procesio plan to acquire more customers?

156.501 - 162.507 Nathan Latka

We're getting you at the perfect stage. You just turned on the paywall. So what are you learning? Is your price point the right price point? Are you too cheap?

0

163.567 - 184.527 Marianne Avoiku

Actually, nobody complains about the price. So I'm assuming that we are a bit too cheap. But I think we are on the right spot because we are selling the value that we offer to our customers because they will pay what they will use. We do not charge per user, per processes. It doesn't matter for us.

Chapter 7: What is the team structure at Procesio?

184.927 - 192.274 Marianne Avoiku

It matters only what they will use. And this is really helpful for us because we will understand the value that we provide for them.

192.457 - 195.081 Nathan Latka

And when did you start writing this platform, the first line of code?

0

196.984 - 220.641 Marianne Avoiku

First line of code, like at the beginning of 2020, in March 2020. And have you raised capital or are you bootstrapped? Yes, we are also bootstrapped from our parent company. But with this capital, we had to seed rounds in total of 1.2 million. And now we are reaching out for round eight.

264.418 - 275.372 Marianne Avoiku

The parent company is the Ringel company. It's a company from the energy space. It's a top provider for software for CRM and ELP for power and gas industry in Romania.

276.834 - 279.838 Nathan Latka

And how much equity did the parent company keep when you spun it out?

280.628 - 288.06 Marianne Avoiku

Actually, we didn't spin it out. We are still part of the company. We are built like a startup inside the company, but we are still part of the company.
