OtoCo is raising $2.5M by way of SAFEs + Token Warrant — its first outside round!
OtoCo started as a hobby project by the Founder of Otonomos, creating companies onchain.
Now, 2 years and 2,000+ paying users later, it is clear companies belong onchain and people want OtoCo to exist!
Invest in Otonomos' sister company
OtoCo is independently owned from Otonomos and independently capitalized.
Where Otonomos is self-financing out of its revenue from forming and maintaining companies in the legacy world, OtoCo is out there at the frontier of Web3, minting blockchain-native companies that use smart contracts for their creation and governance.
In most jurisdictions, incorporating and maintaining companies requires analog filing with legacy Corporate Registries, and Otonomos is creating a digital dashboard that lets you remote control your companies worldwide from within your browser and with the help of AI. So think of Otonomos for everything offchain.
By contrast, OtoCo mints companies natively onchain by mapping smart contracts to jurisdictions where limited liability can be contracted and blockchains are recognized as the ledger of truth of ownership in companies. So think of OtoCo for everything onchain.
Perhaps in the future Otonomos and OtoCo will be combined, however for now they have separate teams and live separate lives, though there is cross-fertilization on some of the tech effort especially on the use of AI for both.
OtoCo's vision
Since we founded OtoCo, our vision has not changed: put companies onchain.
Essentially, OtoCo does for companies what stablecoins do for fiat: bypassing the legacy layer to set companies free from slow, parochial and expensive analog processes.
But stablecoins are just a subset of real world asset tokenization: Companies hold an estimated 85% of the world’s value, so bringing real-world assets onchain means bringing the companies that hold such assets onchain!
Doing so would mean anyone from anywhere - including AI! - can build, invest, or otherwise participate as an economic agent and add to human ingenuity.
That’s what continues to drive the OtoCo team.
Why you should invest
One of the most frequent requests from OtoCo's users and supporters has been how they can take part in our journey financially.
OtoCo really kicked into gear in 2024 and has since grown to over 2,000 companies created on our platform. The project is now approaching $100K in ARR — all without any outside marketing — clear proof that users need onchain companies and want OtoCo to exist.
We’re just getting started, and the opportunity ahead is massive!
Investing now means that, as an OtoCo user, you can become an equity owner — locking in the highest potential multiple ahead of our next A-round.
You will be joining early backers incl. Balaji Srinivasan and several senior Coinbase executives who believe in our mission, and are investing on the same terms, receiving future equity and token warrants when you contribute to our “Community Seed.”
Roadmap
We will use the $2.5MM we look to raise in this Seed Round to add to our distribution and continue to execute our roadmap, which includes:
- Expanding our APIs and adding support for even more global jurisdictions.
- Launching OtoCo Intelligence, your AI-powered corporate agent capable of generating documents, handling compliance, perform maintenance tasks, and more—all via a simple prompt.
- Integrating more powerful plugins and additional tools, enabling richer interactions and enhanced functionality.
- Letting users upload their legacy companies so their ownership is hashed on blockchain and can be transferred peer-to-peer.
