aVenture Startup In Focus: Slated

img

Slated is a late-stage startup offering a film marketplace that helps independent filmmakers and producers connect and create projects together. Slated can use advanced data analytics to identify promising film projects and materials for potential producers and investors. 


Slated's Features Explained


Slated's proprietary scoring system provides up-to-date insight into individual projects' commercial potential, helping independent filmmakers with limited resources to release their films to big audiences. Slated's marketplace business model allows filmmakers access to higher-end post-production services at lower rates due to its scale of operations. The platform's advanced scoring system uses up-to-date market insight to assess each project's commercial potential, analyzing the team's strength, the script's quality, and financial potential. Scripts that score above 75 can access Slated executive producer services, allowing them to connect with a network of partners, producers, and investors.


Slated's development staff will review each applicant's script. These reviewers have been trained to perform quality analysis on film scripts. These insights can help filmmakers better understand how well their films could perform with festivals, audiences, and critics.


Market Opportunity


The US film industry is estimated to be worth over USD 27.9 billion in 2023; there is excellent potential for Slated to become a significant player in this space, given the considerable barriers to entry independent filmmakers have experienced in the last decades. 


The potential growth for Slated is significant, and it is well-positioned to continue capturing the attention of venture capitalists and angel investors. By connecting indie filmmakers and producers on one platform, they have created a robust ecosystem that can facilitate collaboration while enabling better access to funding and resources.


Potential Risks


Slated's success relies heavily on the quality of scripts and projects it recommends to potential partners, producers, and investors. If these projects are not up to par in terms of quality or financial potential, then this could lead to significant losses for those involved. 


Their script reviews are still dependent on a team and are still not a fully automated process, which could pose a scalability issue when they achieve large numbers of applicants. Additionally, due to Slated's business model relying heavily on its proprietary scoring system, its ratings may be subject to bias, which could result in inaccurate results being presented. 


Slated's Startup Profile Now Available on aVenture


Slated's growth opportunity is quite significant. They offer an innovative service that could enable more quality film productions that would otherwise not exist without a matchmaking marketplace. As they gain more users, their data-driven approach to analyzing individual projects' commercial potential will become increasingly accurate, thus creating even more opportunities for investors interested in independent filmmaking.

aVenture Investment Company (“aVenture”) is an independent research platform providing information and analysis about startups.

Certain metrics provided by aVenture may seek to assess the risks and opportunities associated with a company, fund, or its representatives (collectively “research”). aVenture seeks to provide this information with objectivity and fairness, and with diligence about its accuracy. Nonetheless, aVenture cannot provide assurance as to the accuracy of the information provided by our research. We strongly advise those using the research platform to seek multiple, independent sources for your research when making financial decisions.

Any links provided to other websites are offered as a matter of convenience and are not intended to imply that aVenture or its authors endorse, sponsor, promote, and/or are affiliated with the owners of or participants in those sites.

The aVenture platform also provides investment listings offered by independent investment advisers in the United States. aVenture is neither a registered investment adviser nor an exempt reporting adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, and no statements made by aVenture are intended to imply any financial instruments are under the counsel or advice of aVenture or its representatives.

Funds offered on the platform are generally managed by a private investment adviser that, unless stated otherwise, claims exemption from SEC or state registration. Investment funds presented on the platform are only available to investors who meet the requirements of the offering, and solicitations are not made outside those listed jurisdictions.

Additionally, each investment offered on the platform has qualifications for eligibility, including some offered only to Qualified Clients and/or Accredited Investors. Certain funds may be available to non-Qualified or Accredited investors, but only those who become personally known and identifiable to aVenture Investment Company staff, who have had an opportunity to assess the financial capacity and suitability for such an investment, and discuss its risks. Funds, when offered, are only offered following a review of a Private Placement Memorandum (PPM), subscription agreement, and other disclosures.

Investments in startups, venture capital, angel investments, private equity, real estate, stocks, and similar asset classes all involve risks, including: the risk of a decline in the value of your investments, including potentially large declines (suddenly and/or for long periods of time), the potential for illiquidity where part or all of a withdrawal request may not be honored on the date requested (even when a feature of the fund). These risks are heightened during periods of market duress.

Diversification has the possibility of reducing the magnitude of declines (either caused by market/economic factors, or by factors related to the individual company), but does not guarantee these risks have been fully or partially alleviated. Most importantly, past results are not an assurance of future outcomes. While most of these risks are shared and similarly held by other investment asset classes, we recommend investors only consider venture capital investments as part of a broader, diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, and immediately accessible cash reserves.‍
