## Q&A
- Q: What are the KPIs of the company ? Can you tell us more about your traction ? Users ? revenue ?
- Q: What does the corporate governance structure at RUMOR look like? How does it differ from the structures of Alphabet and Facebook, which give founders dictatorial powers?
- Q: They are officially out of business.
- Q: Hi William - Is this the same technology you were fundraising for under the ONE Technologies brand in late 2016? I see they are related but I am unsure if this is the same tech or new. Thanks!
- Q: Is there any updates or is this company dead?
- Q: You're currently asking for a $3m valuation, $5m for late rounders investing, yet your App is not currently released which is the foundation of this company. Can you explain to us how you've come to that valuation and why it's realistic for us as early round investors to achieve a positive return in the future?
- Q: I have 4 questions :1) how many apps have you been able to integrate till date and what all segments(booking hotel, ordering food etc) do they represent ? ,2) are you aware of any competitors ?, 3) whats your launch date?4)if your cap is 3mm ,in ur first round you were able to genrate only 66m , can you tell your future plans to raise money w/o approaching to VC?

- Q: Interesting idea. Can you provide us with an execution timeline please - say for the next year? When will the app be launched? You mentioned about 10 000 people on the waiting list, could you explain how those leads were generated? Regards, Andre
- Q: Is the app going to be similar to qazing app
- Q: I see that you are currently not involved with the venture on a full-time basis. When do you plan to take a full-time role? I look forward to learning more about ONE!
- Q: How is this app different from China's WeChat?
- Q: When do you propose to be running a beta test?
- Q: Hey Guys, I'd love to invest, but I invest in "people" not the product necessarily itself. While I like the product, I'm wondering if you three can be a little more transparent, about your background, what your hustle looks like and if we can trust that are the right people to make this start up successful. I tried to look all 3 of you up on social media platforms, and I find zero. I think some Q & A lives or videos, plus some interviews you can put out via you tube etc. I wouldn't mind being introduced thoroughly to you guys actually are! I'll probably invest a little, but I would invest a lot more if you can introduce yourselves and "sell " yourselves to us.! I do believe this is the missing link. Thanks!. Happy Holidays!!! Tanya
- Q: Is this round still active. it looks like a lot of questions are not being answered.
- Q: I liked what One Technologies was doing, and your pivot vis-a-vie Rumor doesn't excite (personally speaking), perhaps one reason why this fundraise has stalled out. A detailed investor letter explaining everything might do some good with your loyal base "One" investors.
