Hey everyone!
Sorry for the silence lately, but we’ve been totally absorbed in various activities, including our new app and the new Metahero headquarters in Warsaw. Without further ado, here are some updates from our end:
Metahero App
The mobile app is almost ready, and having undergone some significant reworks since the start of the year we’re currently back into the first stages of internal testing. Unfortunately, as is often the case in development, our initial estimates turned out to be a bit too optimistic, and our early assumptions have evolved over time, affecting the timeline and release date of the app. Nevertheless, the public beta is on the way this quarter—trust us, we can’t wait either! We also plan to launch a significant marketing push with the help of our influencer friends to make a big splash!
Location
As many of you know the process of finalising the right space for our team and equipment has been taking much longer than first anticipated. Specifically the front running chosen venue/s that are suitable for our specific needs have meant working through lengthy formal procedures fully engaging our legal team to pick through the finer details and sticking points as they have been encountered. Unlike our previous office, this is going to be our permanent location, so we’re being very cautious about how we go about making such a significant commitment, both financially and operationally. We have been in lengthy and advanced discussions and negotiations on a number of fronts from venues to contractors and given we have the long term success of Metahero in mind, we have opted against caving in where goalposts have been moved and/or deals presented have been deemed unfavourable in the long term. We remain in conversations with a handful of identified locations and as soon as we have reached positive conclusions there you will be the first to know! Thank you for your patience as our team works to finalise Metaheros new home. We are excited for the public and other guests to join us at the new space where our full size and face-scanner will be available for everyone from day one. We are preparing in anticipation of this key bottleneck clearing so we can hit the ground running...
Partnerships
On that note, We’ve been busy in this area too, and we're working hard to tie some of those advanced talks up in the coming weeks, at which point we’ll finally share the results of what will have been many, many hours of discussions over the past months. We’ve developed collaboration models that benefit both us and our business partners. We strongly believe that our first announcement in this area will make a big impact for our platform, not just in Poland but worldwide.
Team
In the meantime, we’ve welcomed some new faces to our team, who will soon be introduced to you. We believe that the “new beginning” with the public release of the Metahero app and the opening of our new office is the perfect time to bring in fresh talent. With their help, we’ll take Metahero to new heights and continue our global expansion.
Metahero Game
Our priority has always been the app first, and these elements need to be in place before we turn fuller focus back to this next goal However, even though we’ve pushed the game aspect back a bit to make more room for focus on the app, it’s still very much on our radar, and we’ll do everything we can to make it available to you as soon as possible. We’ll keep you updated on our progress. As mentioned in our roadmap, our goals are ordered and planned out as a specific series of events that are mostly set out in the order they are for good reason, each step facilitating the next, So let’s get this HQ over the line, our App live and then the fun really begins.
Thank you so much for all your support, messages, suggestions, and, even criticisms. You are co-creators of this project with us, and you are the first citizens of the digital world of Metahero. As soon as we have more news we assure you we look forward more than anyone to sharing those breakthroughs with you via our announcement channels!
