Predikta platform
01 · The Problem

Brands launch blind. Research arrives too late.

Campaign decisions happen weekly. Traditional research takes 3–8 weeks and costs ₱100K–2M+ per study. By the time insight arrives, the budget is already spent.

Why Now
USD 4.64B PH digital ad spend in 2026 — growing +10.2% CAGR
92% of PH organizations using AI — but none simulate audience psychology
Gen AI created ad creative abundance — now brands need to know what works before spending
Zero culturally-calibrated Filipino behavioral AI tools exist at commercial scale
3–8 weeks
Research cycles can't keep up with campaign cadence
Brand and agency teams iterate messaging weekly — sometimes daily. Traditional research takes 3–8 weeks. By the time results arrive, the brief has changed and the insight is answering the wrong question.
₱100K–2M+
Testing every concept is economically impossible
A single market research study in the Philippines can run from ₱100K to ₱2M+. Most brands afford one or two per year — so the majority of campaign concepts go to market untested. Predikta is designed to reduce this to less than 10% of traditional cost.
Generic AI
Global AI tools produce generic Filipino insight
Western psychographic models don't encode collectivism, family purchase influence, bayanihan values, or religiosity as a decision driver. Generic LLM prompts produce generic output — useless for brands needing culturally specific insight.
No tools
Analytics tell you what failed — after you've already failed
Most marketing tools are retrospective. They explain performance after budget is spent. There are almost no tools built to answer the only question that matters before launch: how will this audience actually respond?
02 · The Product

Simulate your audience. Before you launch.

Predikta builds psychographic models of Filipino consumer segments and runs behavioral simulations against campaign inputs — results in hours, no fieldwork, no sample bias.

Behavioral simulation platform built on 68.9M+ Filipino psychographic profiles — derived from a 2,485-respondent nationally representative survey co-developed with UP Los Baños (Statistics) and UP Diliman (Psychology)
95% trait alignment · 88% national-level sentiment simulation accuracy — supported under academic preprint study conditions. Available as an arXiv preprint: arXiv 2505.22125v1. The 200+ campaign commercial validation study currently underway will test real-world prediction accuracy separately.
Grounded in HEXACO, Schwartz Values Theory, and System Justification Theory — recalibrated for Filipino cultural psychology at the model level, not through prompt engineering. Collectivism, religiosity, and bayanihan are structural, not bolted on.
Campaign intelligence in minutes, at less than 10% the cost of traditional research. Know how your audience will respond before a single peso is spent.
Powered by Google Cloud, AWS, and Azure — enterprise-grade infrastructure from day one, built for Southeast Asia scale.

03 · Scientific Foundation & Commercial Signal

Not prompt engineering. A calibrated instrument.

Predikta's behavioral model integrates HEXACO and Schwartz Values Theory — culturally recalibrated for Filipino psychology. Collectivism, family decision-making, and religiosity are not parameters you can add to a prompt.

arXiv
2505.22125v1 — co-authored with University of the Philippines (UP Los Baños & UP Diliman)
The arXiv preprint reports psychographic modeling replicated survey-style sentiment with 88% national-level accuracy under study conditions. This is evidence of survey-alignment, not definitive proof of real-world campaign prediction. The 200+ campaign commercial validation study currently underway is designed to assess that separately. These are distinct questions, and we keep them distinct.

06 · Why This Gets Harder to Copy

Three defensibility pillars — and widening.

We're building three compounding advantages — data flywheel, localization infrastructure, and strategic distribution — each of which gets stronger with usage, validation, and partner-led market access.

01 · Data Flywheel
Accuracy compounds with every validated simulation
Every simulation can be compared against observed outcomes. More usage creates more validation data; more validation data improves calibration; better calibration improves customer trust and repeat usage.
In progress · 200+ campaign validation study
02 · Localization Infrastructure
68.9M Filipino representative profiles
Built from nationally representative respondents via University of the Philippines and scaled through census integration. Cultural psychology is structural in the model — not bolted on through prompts. The same formula can be replicated market-by-market across SEA.
Philippines complete · SEA replication planned
03 · Strategic Distribution
Enterprise access through the Globe / Brave ecosystem
Selected for the 917Ventures Velocity Program and in partnership with Globe Telecom & Brave Connective. The ecosystem creates access to enterprise buyers and validation partners; Predikta still must convert that access into repeatable revenue.
Strategic ecosystem · not yet scaled revenue

Three Falsifiable Conditions for Venture-Scale Outcomes

We're not asking investors to believe in inevitability. We're asking them to back three specific falsifiable hypotheses — each testable within this raise cycle.

1
Simulation must align with real-world campaign outcomes — not just survey sentiment
The 200+ campaign validation program currently underway will be the first externally assessed test of commercial prediction accuracy. The 72% → 75% fintech soft-launch result gives us an early directional signal, but the broader study is designed to test whether that pattern holds at scale. If it does, this becomes a commercially defensible prediction engine. If it doesn't, we'll know before the next raise, and the category thesis weakens accordingly.
Currently underway · 200+ campaign validation study
2
Customers must use Predikta repeatedly — not just experimentally
Named paying and active soft-launch accounts have already shown repeat usage. Scaling toward 34 active clients by EoY 2026 while maintaining that repeat-use pattern is the key commercial milestone of this raise. One-time pilots don't build a business. Workflow replacement does.
Early signal positive · repeat usage observed
3
Localized models must outperform generic AI tools on Filipino consumer insight
If culturally-calibrated Philippine models consistently produce better predictions than generic LLM prompting, the localization investment creates defensible product value. If accuracy converges, the moat weakens. The preprint suggests localization matters significantly. Commercial measurement is underway.

07 · Leadership

The unusual combination this category demands.

Building behavioral decision infrastructure requires enterprise execution, behavioral science depth, and the credibility to attract academic collaborators and enterprise ecosystem partners simultaneously. This team has all three — and has done it before.

09 · Exit Optionality

Built for strategic exit optionality.

Predikta is being built as the localized behavioral intelligence layer for Southeast Asia. If the company proves repeatable ROI improvement in the Philippines and replicates across ASEAN, likely strategic acquirers include market research platforms, agency holding companies, adtech and CRM platforms, and regional telco data and AI businesses seeking proprietary SEA behavioral datasets.

01
Strategic buyer categories
Market research platforms, agency holding companies, adtech and CRM platforms, and regional telco data/AI businesses that need localized behavioral simulation infrastructure.
02
Series A target milestone
PH product-market fit, repeatable enterprise GTM, and initial ASEAN licensing revenue.
03
Likely exit path
M&A is the most probable exit pathway given the localization moat and validated behavioral dataset — a layer that global platforms cannot easily replicate.
