Company Description

Lyfmap.com is a network that connects people over shared history: History of ourselves, our ancestors, and the places where we live. While initially targeting people age 50+, Lyfmap is for everyone, 100% free, and available NOW. Lyfmap allows users to save all their photos and memories at the map locations where they happened, preserving forever these moments of history. Then we notify you when others save memories at those locations, to reminisce with others over the great places of your life. We are sort of like a Facebook for Locations.

We hope to achieve $100M ARR from our unique localized advertising platform. We also plan to have free paper photo scanning for everyone in the US and VR recreation of any city in any time period in history that you select, as we will have Billions of unique vintage photos in our database. We are building a TIME MACHINE powered by the memories and paper photos of the world! These projections are not guaranteed.

Valuation

Security Description

A SAFE is an agreement between you—the investor—and the company in which the company promises to give you a future equity stake based on the amount you invested. It also involves some kind of a triggering event that must take place in order for you to get your future equity stake. Be careful as you may only get equity if a particular event is triggered.
