Amendment No. 4 to Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed January 13, 2025
Risk Factors
Risks Relating to Our Business, page 14
1.Please add a risk factor to address your outstanding debt obligations, as we note that
in addition to the original issue discount convertible promissory notes, a number
of bridge loans and other short-term loans were entered into by the company between
June and December 2024. Highlight the terms of these loans, such as the 100%
interest fee and "additional 100% fee in shares of the Company's Common Stock"
discussed in connection with the bridge loans at page F-44. State your total
indebtedness and how much of such amount may be converted into shares of common
stock and at what conversion price(s). Provide a cross-reference to this risk factor
where you discuss your financial condition at page 9 of the prospectus summary.

Use of Proceeds, page 42
2.We note your disclosure beginning at page F-46 that certain short-term loan
amounts incurred in November and December 2024 will potentially be repaid from
"the proceeds of the IPO." If any material part of the proceeds from this offering are to
be used to discharge indebtedness, clarify as much and disclose the interest rate and
maturity of such indebtedness. Refer to Item 504 of Regulation S-K and the
instructions thereto.
Business, page 55
3.Please revise throughout your business and industry disclosure to provide
updated performance metrics and other information, given passage of time. For
example, we note that your disclosure about the e-sports industry relies on several
sources from 2021 and 2022, and the most recent disclosure of metrics identified as
key performance indicators (e.g., video views, impressions, etc.) appears to be as of
December 31, 2023.
Our B2B Strategy, page 58
4.Where you discuss your "data insights" revenue model, revise to explain how the
service agreements with Artemis Ave LLC ("Artemis") and EVEMeta, LLC
("EVEMeta") relate to the timing and scope of these business activities. Specifically
elaborate on what the "proprietary machine learning solution" and "EVEMeta
solution" to be developed and/or licensed consist of, and disclose any material term or
termination provisions under these agreements. Further, given that you generated
minimal revenues overall and none from tournaments in the nine months ended
September 30, 2024, and entered into the Artemis and EVEMeta agreements in
November 2024, please ensure that your business disclosure accurately reflects your
priorities and intentions regarding revenue-generating activities. For example, you
continue to describe in detail implementing paid user subscriptions to the Brag House
platform, but it is unclear how your recent focus on developing a "data insights
revenue model" has impacted these intentions. To the extent appropriate, make
conforming revisions where you provide an overview of your business elsewhere,
such as the outset of the prospectus summary and MD&A.
Partnerships, page 64
Provide additional detail regarding the nature and key terms of your agreement with
Learfield Communications ("Learfield"). In this regard, you state here and at page 51
that you have "secured a strategic partnership for tournament and promotional events
in 2024 and 2025 with Learfield," but the Sales Representation Agreement on file as
Exhibit 10.16 appears to be with a subsidiary of Learfield and to provide only for an
agreement to act as non-exclusive sales representatives for "seeking, negotiating and
securing agreements with sponsors." If true, explain here and in your risk factor
disclosure the scope of this agreement and clarify that it guarantees no revenues to the
company or any specific number of sponsored tournaments or events. Additionally,
we note your disclosure at page 59 that the agreement with Learfield "grants
[you] access to expansive datasets from diverse college campuses through Learfield’s
media rights properties, which [you] plan to model to enable predictive analytics and 5.

lifestyle behavior tracking." Given the aforementioned limitations of the agreement as
filed, elaborate on why and how you expect to be provided such access.
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions, page 80
6.Update your disclosure regarding payables to your CEO and COO to disclose
outstanding amounts as of the last fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Refer to
Items 404(d) and (a)(5) of Regulation S-K and Instruction 2 to Item 404(d).
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities, page II-2
7.Provide the information called for by Item 701 of Regulation S-K with respect to all
unregistered securities sold within the past three years, including any debt securities.
In this regard, we note that neither the original issue discount promissory notes or the
bridge loans or other short-term debt discussed in the notes to financials are addressed
in this section.
General
8.Please clarify whether the stock consideration under the service agreements with
Artemis and EVEMeta, specifically the 78,125 resale shares to be offered by Artemis
and the 62,500 resale shares to be offered by EVEMeta, have been issued to such
respective entities as of the date of filing of this amendment. In this regard, we note
your disclosure at page II-3 and elsewhere that, "[t]he [Artemis/EVEMeta] Stock
Consideration is expected to be issued...prior to the consummation of this offering."
To the extent these shares have not been issued as of the filing date of this
amendment, please provide your analysis as to why it is appropriate to register the
resale of such shares at this time. For guidance, refer to Securities Act Sections
Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 139.06.
9.As the securities to be offered through the primary and secondary offerings appear to
be subject to different pricing and plans of distribution, please explain why you have
included the secondary offering in the same prospectus as the underwritten primary
offering. Alternatively, and if you maintain that it is appropriate to register the resale
offering at this time pursuant to the preceding comment, revise to include two,
separate prospectuses within the same registration statement. Clarify where
appropriate throughout, if true, that the selling stockholders will sell shares pursuant
to the resale prospectus only following the consummation of the IPO and the listing of
your common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
