Seeking a growth partner for Authentica — AI authentication for sneakers & luxury goods, live on App Store (105)

Authentica is an AI-powered authentication app for sneakers, designer bags, and luxury goods. Users get a verdict — Verified, Unverified, or Needs More Photos — from phone-camera photos alone, in under a minute. No shipping items off, no multi-day waits.

Founder-level ownership of strategy, brand, partnerships, content, and capital. Authentica is already live: a launched App Store product, a working multi-pass AI verdict engine, a locked brand system, and an active creator/affiliate network producing GTM content. I move fast — concept to shipped product in weeks, not quarters. Engineering is fully owned by my technical co-founder, so the build side is covered end to end. What I bring is the vision, the go-to-market, and the drive to make Authentica the trust layer for resale.

I’m looking for a growth/distribution partner or co-investor who sees that trajectory and wants to help scale it. Ideal fit: reach into resellers, marketplaces, streetwear and sneaker culture, or creator networks — and/or capital to accelerate our pre-seed and the roadmap. If you’ve scaled a consumer app’s GTM or have real distribution in resale or luxury, let’s build.
