An Important Update from ELIXMODE

We want to sincerely apologise to our customers, supporters, and everyone following ELIXMODE.

Over the next couple of days, ELIXMODE will be slowing down temporarily. Some of our planned future upgrades and improvements will be delayed, and our ability to respond to or resolve ELIXMODE-related issues may also be limited during this period.

We are currently dealing with some personal matters while also preparing for our 10th-grade examinations. We believe it is important to handle these responsibilities properly rather than rushing our work or making commitments we cannot maintain.

ELIXMODE is not stopping. We are simply taking a short step back so we can come back stronger and better prepared. We truly appreciate your patience, support, and understanding.

— Team ELIXMODE

Angel Round — $31,000 USD (₹26 Lakhs)

We are actively raising our first angel round of $31,000 USD. We know exactly what we're building, what it costs, and how we'll use every dollar. There is no padding in this number — it's the precise capital we need to scale to the next milestone. We are not entertaining vanity rounds and we are not chasing inflated valuations. We want the right investor, not just any investor.

YC S27
Next Target
Skipping W27 to prepare properly. Applying S27 — better timing, better story.

Preparing — applying S27

We were rejected from YC S26. We decided to skip W27 and take more time to prepare properly for S27 — better product, better numbers, better story.

Techstars
Accelerator Programme
Application in progress

Actively applying to Techstars alongside YC. We believe in casting the right net — both programmes align with where we're going.

WHAT WE NEED
🎯
We are looking for investors

We are actively seeking angel investors who believe that age is not a proxy for capability. We are 16. We have built a live platform with real revenue in 30 hours for $21. We are applying to YC and Techstars. We have over 100 real users. We are not asking for a leap of faith — the numbers are already there.

What we need is an investor who brings more than money — someone who can open doors, make introductions, and help us navigate the next stage of growth. The $31,000 is not what we're optimising for. The right partner is.

Open to conversations

If you invest in founders,
you should talk to us.

Two 16-year-olds. $21 to build. 30 hours of work. 100+ users. $235 in revenue. A $31K angel round and two accelerator applications in flight. If that doesn't get your attention, nothing will.
