ORYKSA in one minute
Most small businesses cannot answer every call and message, especially in the evening and at weekends, and every unanswered contact is a lost sale. ORYKSA is an AI employee that does that work: she answers customers on the phone, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Telegram, the website and email, in the customer's language, books appointments, qualifies leads, sends quotes and hands the conversation to a person when needed. The owner sets her up in 5 minutes with a short job interview, and she arrives already trained for that type of business.
Where we are today

The problem
Small businesses lose customers every evening and weekend.
A restaurant, a clinic or a salon gets calls and messages on five or six channels, at all hours, while the owner is busy doing the work. A receptionist for every shift is too expensive, and the chatbots on the market need technical setup, cover one channel and sound like robots. The result: slow replies, missed calls and customers who book with the competitor.
Product
One AI employee, every channel, the business's own voice.
Ready in 5 minutes
No technical setup. The owner answers a short job interview, connects the channels and ORYKSA starts working. She reads the website, documents, products and prices to learn the business (the Brain).
Trained for each business
18 industry kits (restaurant, clinic, salon, real estate, hotel, auto repair, law firm and more) come with the right flows, dashboards and a free business website.
Real voice
She answers and makes phone calls with a natural voice, understands WhatsApp voice notes and replies by voice when it helps.
The owner stays in control
Rules for what she handles alone, pause and take over any conversation, a summary of every call and one view of leads, bookings and sales.
Wherever the owner works
Web dashboard, apps for Android, Windows, Alexa and Fire tablets, a Chrome extension that does tasks in the browser, and the iPhone app next.
Infrastructure: Microsoft Azure, Cloudflare and Stripe. Several AI providers with automatic failover. GDPR (EU) and LGPD (Brazil) processes.
Competition
Others sell tools. ORYKSA delivers a ready employee.

WATI and ManyChat are messaging tools for marketers, Twilio is an API for developers and n8n is a do-it-yourself automation platform. None of them gives a small business a ready AI employee that also answers the phone.

Go-to-market
One market and one industry at a time.
- Order of markets: USA first, then Portugal and Europe, then Latin America (Brazil).
- Industry kits as the wedge: campaigns aimed at one sector (restaurants, clinics, salons...) with a live demo of that sector.
- Campaign landing pages with Google and Meta ads, and a phone offer where people hear her on a call in seconds.
- App stores and marketplaces as free distribution: Google Play, Microsoft Store, Amazon Alexa, Chrome Web Store, Shopify, Nuvemshop and WordPress.
- Partners: agencies and resellers that set ORYKSA up for their clients.
- Content and search in English, Portuguese, Spanish and French, and events such as Web Summit.
Founder and team
Lean by design.
ORYKSA was designed and built by its founder, Weslley Harakawa, working with AI tools: backend, voice, apps, billing, website and operations. That keeps the burn low and the speed high.
Sam Altman has predicted a one-person billion-dollar company powered by AI. We build with that mindset, and we know a company needs people: the first hire after this round is an engineer, and we are open to a technical co-founder with vested equity.
Continuity: documented runbooks, automatic daily health checks and monitoring, and code and data backed up off-site.
The round
SAFE with a €2.5M post-money cap. Founder 70-78%, option pool (ESOP) 10%, investors 12-20%.
| Tier | Slots | Ticket | Equity each | Total raise |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Founder | - | - | 70-78% | - |
| ESOP pool | - | reserved | 10% | - |
| Lead investor | 2 | €100.000 | 4% | €200.000 |
| Super-angel | 3 | €50.000 | 2% | €150.000 |
| Angel | 4 | €25.000 | 1% | €100.000 |
| Micro-angel | 5 | €10.000 | 0.4% | €50.000 |
| Round total (investors) | 14 slots | 12-20% | €300.000-€500.000 | |
Terms
Instrument: post-money SAFE. Valuation cap: €2.5M, the same for every ticket. Minimum close: €300K. Founder vesting: 4 years with a 1-year cliff. Information rights: quarterly report (customers, revenue, burn, runway). Pro-rata: €100K tickets keep their share in the next round. The final documents are reviewed by lawyers on both sides.
Use of funds (18 months)
- 55% go-to-market: campaigns in the USA and Europe, campaign landing pages and partners.
- 35% product: the first engineer, the iPhone app and the official WhatsApp API for every customer.
- 10% legal, compliance and operations.
Possible returns
An illustration, not a promise. Values before dilution from future rounds.
| Ticket | Share | If ORYKSA is worth €10M | €50M | €100M |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| €10K | 0.4% | €40K (4×) | €200K (20×) | €400K (40×) |
| €25K | 1% | €100K (4×) | €500K (20×) | €1M (40×) |
| €50K | 2% | €200K (4×) | €1M (20×) | €2M (40×) |
| €100K | 4% | €400K (4×) | €2M (20×) | €4M (40×) |
Software companies are often valued at several times their annual recurring revenue. Future rounds dilute every shareholder, the founder included. Early-stage investing is high risk: invest only what you can afford to lose.
Risks and how we handle them
- Early revenue. Acquisition cost and churn are not proven yet. This round pays for finding out, market by market.
- Platform rules. WhatsApp, Instagram and the app stores can change their rules. We are a Meta Tech Partner, use official APIs where they exist and spread across many channels.
- Solo founder. Documented systems, monitoring and the first hires planned in this round.
- Big competitors. We focus on small businesses and on phone plus messaging together, with industry kits that take time to copy.
Roadmap (12-18 months)
- The iPhone app in the App Store.
- The official WhatsApp Business API (Meta) for every customer, next to the QR connection.
- Memory per customer across every channel.
- More industry kits and a marketplace of ready-made AI employees.
- Teams and enterprise: several AI employees per company with shared reports.
- Launch campaigns in the USA.
