TStreet

A language technology company repositioned toward translation marketing and support, with capital raised at increasing valuations.

Role

Worked through the business, technology, patents, capital strategy, and pivot with the executive team.

Highlights

  • Engagement ran from October 2021 to August 2023.
  • Reviewed the business, executives, technology, and patents.
  • Raised capital at an AUD $8 million valuation.
  • Raised again a few months later at an AUD $16 million valuation.
  • Used the capital to support a pivot into translation marketing and support.

The Challenge

TStreet had been operating for several years but had not found the commercial success it wanted. It was a language translation technology company before the current artificial intelligence wave made the future of translation technology obvious to a much wider market.

The Work

The work involved going through the business, talking to the existing executives, reviewing the technology and patents, identifying what had been missed, and supporting a commercial pivot.

Capital was raised at an AUD $8 million valuation, then again a few months later at an AUD $16 million valuation. That capital supported the pivot toward translation marketing and support.
