Investor Overview

Loop-ahβ„’: 10-Lever ARR Engine

Recurring cartridge revenue under contract; dispensers are a simple one-time line.

The co-operative network activates 10 revenue levers across supply, rollout, and ESG alignmentβ€”compounding durable, contract-backed cash flows while reducing operational risk for partners.

Contracts drive predictable ACV; replacement cadence sets ARR. Dispensers recognize once; cartridges repeat.

Seed Ask: $1.25M to Loop-ah at Portfolio Scale

Three tranche-gated milestones from prototype to portfolio launch and full seed deployment.

Milestone 1 β€” Lean Pilot (~$0.57M) Dispenser + loofah tape MVP; Portal v1 + boutique hotel pilot.
Milestone 2 β€” Portfolio Launch (~$0.85M) Manufacturing + first production run; peel-and-stick installs across hotels.
Milestone 3 β€” Full Seed Deployment ($1.25M) Supply, QA, 3PL + ops buffer; prep Residential (Phase 2) entry.
β‰ˆ11-day modeled payback from seed-funded pilot to ARR; funds are tranche-gated across M1–M3 with a 10% buffer.

Pilot & portfolio KPIs we track

  • Usage/room/day and refill cadence.
  • Stockouts ≀2% and delivery OTIF.
  • Minutes saved/room and reduced wash cycles.

Tranche triggers

  • M1 β€” MVP live, training complete, boutique pilot running.
  • M2 β€” 30–45 days of KPI data + installs across first portfolio.
  • M3 β€” pilot conversions/LOIs + readiness for Phase 2 (Residential) entry.
Investment Thesis

Why Loop-ah Works as an Investment

Hotel leaders are asked to free up housekeeping time, curb laundry cycles, and hit ESG targetsβ€”without denting guest experience. Loop-ah meets that brief with a contract-first model: dispensers recognize once; cartridges repeat, so ARR, GM, and payback live in the cartridge line.

Contract floors + reorder portal β†’ predictable cadence. Recurring cartridges compound portfolio GP as rooms under contract scale.
Why Loop-ah Works as an Investment β€” thesis, levers, and risk posture
Thesis, levers, and risk postureβ€”why contracts and cartridges create durable value.

The day-to-day reality: extended droughts elevate water stewardship, net-zero paths push kWh & COβ‚‚ reduction, and detergent discharge and textile waste face scrutiny. At the same time, managers need more guest-facing hours without more headcount.

Loop-ah replaces high-turn cloths with a plant-based, single-guest loofah tape in a clean, wall-mounted dispenser. Contracts set minimum room commitments; a portal sets cadence. The result is predictable ARR and high-GM refills that roll up cleanly from room β†’ property β†’ portfolio.

Market

Large, replaceable spend in hospitality; hygiene and convenience favor recurring refills.

Margin

High-GM cartridges repeat; dispensers recognized once (sale) or as lease MRR.

Risk

Co-op supply + compost network minimizes single-point failures as rooms under contract scale.

Fit

Plant-based, biodegradable system aligned with brand standards and compliance goals.

Per-Unit Engine

Unit Economics & Margins

Contracts convert rooms into predictable ACV. Revenue is recognized upon cartridge delivery (ASC-606), so ARR and GP live in the cartridge line.

Use the footprint sliders to mirror your portfolio and see how ARR and GP scale.

Portfolio View

5-Year Portfolio Projection

Enter contracted rooms for each year. Revenue recognizes on delivery: rooms Γ— carts/room/yr Γ— price. Usage does not affect recognition.
Cartridge ARR and GP drive the model; the dispenser is a small one-time enabler that pays back quickly and then gets out of the way.
