Dear William Westbrook:
We have reviewed your offering statement and have the following comments.
Please respond to this letter by amending your offering statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your facts and

Amendment No. 1 to Offering Statement on Form 1-A
Offering Circular Summary, page 4
1.Please revise here to describe the current status of your business operations.
Specifically, revise to clarify whether you have any commercially available products
or services, or whether your products or services are still under development. To the
extent your products or services are still under development, please revise to provide
an anticipated development timeline for these products or services and an estimate of
the remaining costs to complete development. Additionally, please revise to clarify
whether you have generated any revenue to date. While we note your disclosure on
page 11 that you have had "no operations or revenue to date", we also note that the
financial statements included in this filing indicate that you have generated small
amounts of revenue. Please reconcile this apparent discrepancy. Please make similar
revisions to your business and MD&A sections.

General
13.Please revise to disclose the compensation information required by Item 11 of Form
1-A for the three highest paid persons who were executive officers or directors.
14.Please revise the information you have provided in response to Items 1, 4 and 6 of
your offering statement on Form 1-A to ensure that it is consistent with the
information disclosed in your offering circular. In this regard, we note the following:
•The financial statement information provided in response to Item 1 of Form 1-A
appears inconsistent with the information disclosed in the financial statements in
your offering circular. For example, your Item 1 disclosure states that you have
Cash and Cash Equivalents of $0.00 for the most recent period contained in this
offering statement while the financial statements in your offering circular disclose
Cash of $87 for the period ended June 30, 2024. Additionally, your Item 1
disclosure indicates you have no outstanding common equity while disclosure on
page 13 of the offering circular indicates that you have issued 100,000 shares of
common stock to each of William Westbrook and Luis Vega. Also, with respect
to these issuances, it would appear that they were issued pursuant to an exemption
from registration for which Item 6 of Form 1-A disclosure would be required.
•Item 4 of Form 1-A discloses that you are not conducting delayed or continuous
offering pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3) of Regulation A, not conducting a best efforts
offering and that the portion of the aggregate offering price attributable to
securities being offering on behalf of the issuer is $19.729 million. Disclosure in
the offering circular appears to indicate that you are conducting a Rule 251(d)(3)
offering, are conducting a best efforts offering and that total aggregate offering
proceeds is $15 million.
Please revise to reconcile these discrepancies or advise.
15.You appear to be a shell company as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of
1933 because you have no or nominal operations and assets consisting solely of cash
and cash equivalents. Please disclose on the cover page that you are a shell company
and add a risk factor that highlights the consequences of your shell company status.
We will consider qualifying your offering statement at your request. In connection
with your request, please confirm in writing that at least one state has advised you that it is
prepared to qualify or register your offering. If a participant in your offering is required to
clear its compensation arrangements with FINRA, please have FINRA advise us that it has no
objections to the compensation arrangements prior to qualification.
We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence
of action by the staff.
