Non-game leads
Non-game apps now out-earn games on in-app purchase revenue.
Why Now
Mobile spend has shifted and GenAI is accelerating.
Non-game apps now out-earn games on in-app purchase revenue. GenAI app revenue is compounding fast, while retention remains the category-wide weakness — leaving room for operators who can both monetize and retain.

GenAI compounds
GenAI mobile app revenue continues to accelerate year over year.
Retention is open
Retention remains the category-wide weakness — and the operating opportunity.
How We Win
A repeatable operating advantage.
Three pillars — built to compound learning, retention, and portfolio leverage.
Faster learning
velocity
Full-funnel experiments across creative, onboarding, paywalls, pricing, features and content. Every cohort improves the next.
Gaming-grade
retention & live ops
Content cadence, segmentation, credit economies and feature loops turn conversion into loyalty.
Portfolio
compounding
Every app reuses generation, CMS, subscriptions, attribution and cohort models. Learnings transfer.
AI-Native Studio
AI-native across every function.
Studio velocity at a fraction of the headcount of a traditional studio.
Ideation
A daily AI agent scans third-party market data, creative practices and emerging trends — then briefs the team on what is working now.
Design
An agentic layer reasons over visuals, company goals and memory; it recommends the stronger direction, then generates wireframes and mockups.
Development
AI coding under human control. Design and auto-drafted tickets feed agent-driven builds; AI-assisted QA shortens dev-to-live.
Data Stack
Our own attribution, ingestion and processing stack spans growth and product — the deepest capability we have.
Decisions
AI agents consolidate meeting notes, internal messaging, task history and company memory, so decisions are made fast with every angle on the table.
CORE GROWTH LOOP
The growth unlock we discovered.
A genuine loop — every cycle returns stronger than it started.
