Projected ARR: Realistic Mid-Case
Base Case: No Bullshit
No government funding, no grants, no large-company alignments, no state mandates. Marketing and grassroots social only. This is what the numbers look like with elbow grease, direct outreach to DLE companies, geothermal developers, and energy PE firms, and a product that closes on demonstration.
Year one is typically a wash: firming up systems, software, and AABOS AI processing. Close 3 enterprise accounts (1 DLE company, 1 geothermal developer, 1 PE firm), 12 Operator-tier, 35 Scout-tier. Revenue is real but reinvested. Foundation is set.
Distribution channels active. DLE Sourcing API producing. Geothermal Intelligence Module live. First government or defense relationship in pipeline (Encore Services SDVOSB vehicle). M&A portfolio scanner closing PE firms. Marketplace and industrial offtake agreements being structured.
Scale. Enterprise API licensed to energy analytics platforms. 20+ enterprise accounts, 55+ operator accounts. Transaction layer live. If any government, institutional, or large-company relationship closes, ARR compounds materially beyond this range.
Account assumptions driving base case
| Tier | Price | Y1 Accounts | Y2 Accounts | Y3 Accounts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Enterprise | $8,500/mo | 3 | 10 | 22 |
| Operator | $2,500/mo | 12 | 28 | 55 |
| Scout | $499/mo | 35 | 80 | 180 |
15% annual churn Y1 → 8% Y3. Federal/government contracts modeled separately and not included in base case.
ARR with Moderate Enterprise Integration & Trade Press Hit
If Two Catalysts Fire
One enterprise API deal with a major energy analytics platform (Enverus, S&P Global Commodity Insights, Wood Mackenzie) plus one trade press hit (Hart Energy, Oil & Gas Journal) multiplies the base case by 3x-5x within 24 months. These are not guaranteed: but both are achievable without venture capital or a federal contract.
Trade press hit drives inbound Scout + Operator signups. DLE company signs enterprise annual contract with API access. Platform gets cited in one DOE WOO grant submission by an operator: free credibility.
Enterprise API licensed to Enverus or equivalent: instantly accesses thousands of existing E&P customers. DoD DPA Title III contract closes via Encore SDVOSB vehicle. Data flywheel producing measurably tighter confidence intervals: competitors cannot replicate.
National Registry cooperative agreement with USGS or NETL. Transaction layer live: well rights, brine supply agreements, geothermal conversions processed through MLR marketplace. Acquisition conversation begins. Exit at 10-15x revenue is the institutional outcome.
Investor return outlook: upside case
At $18M ARR (Year 3, upside case) and a conservative 8x revenue multiple: consistent with comparable energy data SaaS acquisitions by Enverus, Verisk, or S&P Global: a $250,000 investment at 10% equity implies a $14.4M return on a $250K investment. A $500,000 investment at 20% implies $28.8M on $500K. These are the numbers if the enterprise API deal closes. The base case at $4.5M ARR and 8x still supports a strong return on the lower investment.

Investment Ask
$250,000 for 10% equity | $500,000 for 20% equity in the MotherLode Reservoir program
We have over 3,000 hours in build time and $300,000 invested into the platform so far. We are currently 85% complete to public launch. Once funds are acquired we are live in 30 days or less.
Use of funds
- Software hardening and platform infrastructure
- Expanding AABOS AI processing capacity
- Secure server deployment and security software
- Marketplace infrastructure build-out
Projected ARR: base case
- Year 1: $750K-$1.1M: Year one is typically a wash: firming up systems, software, and AABOS AI processing.
- Year 2: $2.1M-$3.5M: Distribution channels active, marketplace and industrial offtake agreements live.
- Year 3: $4.5M-$8.0M: Scale. If any government or institutional relationship aligns, ARR compounds materially.

Ownership structure (post-investment)
Investor return outlook
Even at the lower conservative base case: without any upside catalysts such as a DOE contract, state mandate, or international expansion: Year 3 projections support a strong return at $4.5M ARR on a $250,000 investment, or meaningful upside on a $500,000 investment. If enterprise API or federal catalysts fire, returns scale materially.
