Welcome to 2023 and a Happy New Year to each and every one of you! We want to start by saying thank you for your support and enthusiasm for the Starchive campaign. 

Thanks to your investments, we are thrilled to announce that we have oversubscribed the campaign four months early!

We are now preparing to close the first funding of the campaign but we have decided to extend the opportunity to invest a little while longer to ensure we make room for every fan and member of Starchive who wants the chance to share in the opportunity for outsized success. If you want to increase your investment in Starchive, now is the best time to do that on the WeFunder page here: https://wefunder.com/starchive

In this first community campaign, we have 78 total investors, the vast majority of which are non-accredited investors like you who invested as little as $100 to be part of our story. This kind of community support makes us incredibly proud and it also makes the company more resilient. 

Each of you are now ambassadors for Starchive and your help spreading the word about the investment opportunity and about the power of the Starchive SaaS platform will only increase the value of your investment.

Below are some brief but exciting updates kicking off 2023. We thank you again for your investment and we look forward to growing Starchive  to be the standard bearer for digital media maximization for the coming decade.

With enthusiasm and gratitude,

Richard and Peter

Co-Founders of Starchive

Some Exciting developments

We ended 2022 with just over 90k accounts worldwide. We currently have 91,565 Starchive accounts representing every country in the world.

We now have real revenue and brought in a total $315,633 in 2022

We have direct evidence that the market wants a better solution. In April of 2022, we hit the pause button on our Marketing campaigns. Since then, we have added more than 22k new accounts with $0 in marketing! This is an incredible testament to the latent demand in the market. Imagine what this compounding effect will look like when our baseline is 500k or 1M accounts. 

Big Names and Opportunity

We continue to support and attract the world's greatest artists and archives alongside our tens of thousands of unknown creators.

Last week, we signed another management team with 5 artists under management, one of whom is a Platinum selling act.  More interesting - we have an exploratory partnership to use Starchive as a platform to support a new Artist-Fan engagement experience that two major managers are fired up about. It will allow artists to share new song ideas, early drafts of lyrics, personal photos and messages directly with their fans via subscription as a means to cut out the middlemen and generate more revenue. 

This month we had a call with 11 people from one of the 2 most powerful music and events companies in the world to explore Starchive supporting them and their A list artists. 

We are in pilot mode to help a major catalog owner maximize the value of their acquisitions of culture shaping archives including, Dean Martin, The Beach Boys, Nat King Cole, Linda Ronstadt, David Crosby and Steven Stills.

We have a project underway with one of  the world’s largest theatrical archives. This is a test case to support them extracting more value from the $4B in music catalogs they control.
