ChronoScent
We constantly miss experiencing fleeting, significant moments fully because we're distracted or not present. Memories fade and the evocative power of scent is tragically underutilized.

The Solution

ChronoScent captures, digitizes, and later recreates the scent signatures of user-defined 'Key Life Moments.' Using a mobile app and wearable scent-capture device, users record ambient scents alongside audio/video notes. The ChronoScent platform then analyzes the captured scent profile, converting it into a digital 'ScentCode' that can be recalled and re-emitted later via personal diffusion devices or integrated home systems.

Confidential Investment MemoEuropean Rationalist

"While the unit economics are intriguing, the core value proposition hinges on whether consumers will actually *want* to relive mundane moments through scent. The 'Scent Amplifier' model is particularly troubling. We need serious validation that this is not just another over-engineered solution looking for a problem. Show me significant user engagement data and a clear path to profitability, and *then* we can talk about a Series A."
