‍Let's Empower Recreation Here at The Center of the World.

‍

‍Let's GO:

‍

Through an Underlying Affiliate Marketing Engine Incentivizing Crowd Sourced Deals & Loyalty Rewards. ‍

‍

The FIRST Affiliate Marketing Engine for Brick & Mortar.

‍

"Hold on, tiger. That's ambitious. You're starting to talk about what must be a multi-billion dollar TAM. Who are you, and what problem are you solving?" - You, probably

Who Are We?

Allow us to introduce ourselves.

‍

We're nobody. Actually, we're several nobody New Yorkers who decided to pay attention to what people actually want in their communities. And to how SMBs actually interact with the customers that walk through their doors.

‍

‍But who are we more specifically?

‍

We'll let Quinn Zsido, our CEO & Co-founder take center stage for this one

Quinn is the middle of 7 kids to a military family from upstate New York, so he's never been afraid to fight 😉

‍

‍

He fought 🔗 while an all-state wrestler out of NY

‍

‍

He fought to 🔗 lead Carnegie Mellon's defense even through an ACL rupture

And he has fought...

.

.

.

‍

‍

to pay back that $65K annual CMU education while gaining invaluable corporate marketing experience for leading B2C companies here in NYC.

‍

All while bootstrapping GO from 5-9. Click the picture to follow alongside his 🔗 LinkedIn.

As GO CEO, Quinn is an experienced and ridiculously ambitious Campaign, Growth, & Product Marketer in NYC with 6+ years of tech experience inside of major B2C & B2B environments having set YoYoYoY acquisitions records and directly owning $15+ million of paid media.

‍

‍He knows how to bring products to market patiently and precisely. ‍

‍

And he's not afraid to do so...

‍

Growing up near farm country upstate Quinn just wanted to "be a part of it.🗽".

‍

That beautiful city on the horizon just beyond reach 🏙️. Through 12 years upstate he remembers only ever visiting NYC two times. Both of which times he and his 6 siblings were in the hands of their mom and dad, and one of which times the mini-van got towed, leaving to a play-day at the police station.

‍

But it was enough for Quinn to see the city out of reach. So when he finally broke in after his time at Carnegie Mellon and discovered that so many other nobodies saw that same city they were living in as out of reach then he immediately started creating Gotham Oracle. If only as a passion project, he imagined a better future.

‍

‍

Joining Quinn on GO's journey are...

( +a couple of different angel investors, advisors, and associates of the company )

‍

If you’re reading this, it’s because you’ve made or are considering making an investment in this city you live and love as well. ‍

"So what's the Problem?"

‍

The Problem

Contemporary Mobile Billboards Have Never Existed. Could never exist. Until Now

‍

Supply & Demand of recreation in the city, or rather the B2B2C Marketplace that should be connecting the two.

‍

B2C Demand

There is obvious local desire & no directive resources for citizens

New Yorkers gladly pay $X to save $Y > $X while engaging & discovering what they'd already do

But there are only pigeon holed outlets & recommendations (e.g. socials, newsletters, rewards apps)

B2B Supply

Desire But No Central & Equitable Resource for SMBs 

No central marketplace allowing small businesses to advertise promotions through a localized brand

No incentives. No connected affiliate marketing engine to reward SMBs and pay middle men (e.g. Influencers / Affiliates)

‍

Consider the objects you see in society below. All objects that present value based on two microeconomic drivers: Vicinity & Offering.

‍

"I am in need of fuel, food, services. There's what I want.. in my vicinity.. at price points, deals, and offerings that are advertising towards me."

Is it so crazy to imagine these concepts could be digitized? 

‍

No. But for thousands of reasons we're intimately familiar with a digitized and accessible solution is nearly impossible in today's get rich quick, ai driven world. These are people-first problems that are impossible to apply a quick fix.

They are ever changing real world prompts that are impossible to automate. They necessitate years of extremely thoughtful, intricate, and people-first conversations and solutions built out. Happy to provide examples. Grab us afterwards.

‍

Well the TAM becomes fairly obvious, but to list a few relevant data points in New York City alone:

‍

1) $74+ Billion Dollars spent annually just on NYC tourism in recent years

2) 200M  Eventbrite Tickets Annually

3) 70M Citizens & Tourists in NYC (potential readers/users/customers)

4) 5M IG Followers between just 3 what-to-do-in-NYC profiles (people care about doing things) : (Secret NY, NYBucketlist, and Timeout NY)

‍

The Solution

Turn Local Flywheels

The Infatuation NYC x Seated

‍

Hinted at above, the solution here is an open-source B2B2C Media Marketplace + Native Consumer App where users access aggregated deals, purchase coupons, and engage rewards all around them.

‍

A one-stop shop for added value in the real world around people.

‍

1) Save Money while Living, Eating, Exploring the best of the city

2) Distribute Money through Native affiliate & loyalty rewards

3) Save Time doing what you would have done anyways. Better. Quicker.

4) Share Culture through local connection to the city & GO network capabilities.

‍

Build this flywheel correctly through people-first solutions while listening to and spreading from neighborhood..

‍

to neighborhood..

‍

to neighborhood.

‍

Uplifting the city, its local economies, and its citizens all along the way:

‍

"Alright, enough with the hypotheticals. Show me the product."

‍

‍

The Product:

Contemporary Mobile Billboards, Modern Marketing, & Old-School Customer Service

‍

Modern Solutions to Age-Old Problems

‍

Consider the below screen recording. It shows off 2 types of live deals (turn phone to watch)

‍

‍

You'll notice two sets of deals/events.

‍

1) Aggregates AKA "Search": Deals and events aggregated (everything in NY) that we'll eventually ask for affiliiate kickbacks from.

‍

For now, they're free advertising for others. Omniscience. Gotham Oracle.

‍

2) GO Deals: Our special sauce. GO Deals represent monetized deals and events through Partners (e.g. SMBs) often exclusive to Gotham Oracle and its readers / users.

‍

These deals arepurposely almost exclusively on those local SMBs' submitted terms.

‍

These GO Deals are things of beauty...

‍

1) NOT ONLY are they contemporary mobile billboards (LIVE happy hours, deals, etc.) for any NYC establishment online OR brick & mortar

‍

2) & NOT ONLY are they exclusively GO's by revealing secretpasswords, promo codes, and event admissions while recieving affiliate income back on every redemption

‍

3) But they're ALSO made for and by the local communities of citizens and SMBs they serve.

‍

‍

OK. Really cool idea. Big TAM. Good for the community. Basically my grandma's coupon book digitized. But... does it work?

‍

Beta testing throughout Brooklyn & Manhattan would indicate yes

‍

‍

‍

And that's exactly how they're marketed. By and for the community.

‍

Yes but how? And where? Through WHAT?

‍

You're looking at it. Or rather reading it. Or evenmore specifically... experiencing it.

GothamOracle.com

The B2B2C Marketplace Connector

‍

> B2B suppliers (e.g. GO Deals) can submit deals/events by 🔗 becoming a Partner

‍

> Gotham Affiliates 🔗 can represent those deals, write about them through Gotham Guides 🔗, and get paid royalties for every conversion (of which GO takes the Lion's Share) 

‍

> New Yorkers and tourists will flock through our organic, paid, and affiliate marketing to explore NYC via the GO website. They'll land on Gotham Guides that will show off and link them directly to guides in the 🔗 Gotham Oracle native app

‍

> And the mapped app will put the power of the city in their pockets. They'll redeem GO Deals and become customers in city around them. And in-turn more SMBs will submit deals onsite and become 🔗 GO Partners

‍

‍

Final Thoughts

‍

The world needs a Marketing Media (our website) powered by a Native Rewards Application (The GO iOS consumer app). Here at the center of the world NYC’s neighborhoods, communities, SMBs (small businesses), and economies serve as models for the best of humanity. Additionally, when corrupted by myopic greed and $22 hollowed hipster burger joints with no soul (fries extra) it can represent the worst. This is not an argument for turning back the clock to some better time. You can’t fight technology, but you can utilize it for good. Herein lies our competitive advantage and driving force. GO’s B2B2C marketplace is an evolution alongside and ahead of technical trends to right the ship.

‍

We’re studied, resourced, sympathetic, and we ship pragmatic software at the speed of light. We hope you’ll join us. And so together, let’s briefly explore how we’ll achieve this. We've started to get a sense of how this thing can really work across a metropolis. Our MVP exists. And our Go-To-Market strategy is primed; a naturally scaling and thoughtfully monetizing critical mass takeover expanding from locality to locality propelling SMBs, Customers/Users, and GO along the way.

‍

We've already raised part of our pre-seed. But not enough to properly Go-to-Market. We'd love to introduce to our involved advisors and investors. They've become initmately familiar with how just how much fight we've got in us. We believe a better world of recreation around our cities is possible. And we know the way. We hope you'll join us.

‍

Let's GO.

Footnotes for interested investors: Pricing, SAFE Example, and more formal Google Slides Pitch Deck

‍

‍

Pricing

‍

Approach this from an investor's mindset. For example, while this flywheel isn't spinning yet, what respectively small investment is needed to make this first Bushwick flywheel (N) spin? We believe that initial amount to achieve critical mass (Σ) is < $50,000. And between this cohort, we're closer now.

‍

‍

What incremental open source momentum naturally occurs for every next flywheel once N is spinning? We believe localities N+1 (e.g. Bedstuy + Ridgewood) will only need (.8)(Σ) = $40,000,  N+2 (e.g. Williamsburg+) will only need (.6)(Σ) = $30,000, and so on into Manhattan and across NYC via network effects, FOMO, and microeconomic incentives.

‍

‍

So perhaps most importantly when considering the Total Addressable Market (TAM) and evaluation... If GO works in one neighborhood, why can’t it work in every neighborhood? In time, why can’t it work across a % of NYC’s 50,000+ Restaurants, 9M Citizens, & 65M Annual Tourists?

Terms: 

‍

Pre-Seed Raise of $250,000 at a 15% Discount via SAFEs (Simple Agreement for Future Equity)

Deadline for your deposit of your first SAFE: June 30th, 2026

‍

FAQ below. Quinn can answer all your questions before the January 31st deadline. Please text or call him: (845)863-4241

• Q: Will this be my last chance to invest in GO's 2026 Pre-Seed? 
  
  • A: Perhaps. Perhaps not. It is by far the cheapest opporutnity. Unless we raise the full $250K (we haven't yet), we'll be offering lower discounts through the year (5%, 10%)
  • A: Priority will be offered to current SAFE holders first. So if you secured a $45,000 15% discounted SAFE investment before, you'll be first to hear about the 10% discounted SAFE (e.g. in Q3 2026)
• Q: Will I know how and where my investment is contributing? 
  
  • A: Yes. Formally and informally we'll continue to update our Advisory Board on where investments are and why.
  • A: Perhaps one of the most attractive parts of a GO investment is how we scale. Through patience and preparation, our team has bootstrapped a near zero-overhead product that scales 1:1 alongside additional Partners, users, and monetization. In other words, before making further 2026 Pre-Seed investments you'd be privy to how GO is scaling. This transparency is an absolute rarity for most early stage investments.
• Q: How much should I invest? 
  
  • There is no right answer. The average commitment is hovering around two 2-3 tickets or $10,000-$15,000. Against the advice of startup minds in our network, we'll mention that we don't believe we need more than $100K (40% of the Pre-Seed) to Go-to-Market. Hence the scaling comments in the above question. But such flexibility and upside is the benefit of having bootstrapped a product thoroughly and not being beholden to major share-holders or production constraints.

‍

What is a SAFE? (Best read on desktop)

‍

‍A SAFE allows investors to make an investment now which will convert into shares in the next priced round at a valuation to be determined in that round.

‍

‍

About your investment

‍

You’re investing some multiple of $5,000 (e.g. US$10,000) in Gotham Oracle, which will convert into shares when we do our next priced round.

‍

If we have a new priced round, your investment will convert into shares at a valuation that’s the lower of:

‍

(i) a discount of 15% applied to the price per share paid by new investors in that priced round, and

‍
(ii) a YC post-money cap of US$2,500,000.

‍

‍

How will I invest? 

‍

We've partnered with SeedLegals to help shepherd our journey through Series A and beyond. The below example document can answer the most specific questions you might have about your SAFE.

‍

PDF example below best navigated on desktop.

‍

Please see example SAFE that you'll receive version of if you decide to invest. Right now is the cheapest discount you'll ever receive on this SAFE. And every month that discount decreases.
