Chapter 01

The call

Saarth and the record behind a name

The product I had to make visible

Saarth Shah — SixtyFour, “AI agents for people intelligence.” Point it at anyone and it returns the record: other accounts, bans, complaints, everything the internet quietly knows. Seed, YC, already selling.

Where the company stood

$6mm+ raised, $2mm+ revenue milestone.

Chapter 02

The problem

Security, not surveillance

The power people are scared of

SixtyFour has the kind of power people are scared of. In the wrong hands, it’s a bad-guy tool.

The positioning

So this was never about features — it was about positioning: making it unmistakable this is a bad-guy tool for the good guys.

“We don’t want millions of haters — it has to come off as a security company, not a surveillance company.”
Saarth Shah · from our call

Chapter 03

The film

Give the power to the good guys

I pointed the power at a villain.

Let the audience choose a side

So I pointed the power at a villain: a marketplace fraudster — fake listings, a stolen identity — with SixtyFour pulling his whole record as the good guys close in. The creepy capability becomes the hero’s weapon, and the audience roots for the person wielding it.

Chapter 04

The drop

A hero film, then a summer of films

Keep the films coming

Hero film from Saarth’s account, then a new film most weeks all summer, each posted by a founder. The “You’ve been Sixtyfoured” cut trended; demos booked within hours.

Saarth Shah

Introducing the world's first way to screen for fraud on platforms you shop from every day. Every marketplace runs on sellers it has never met. Sellers sign up under stolen identities, post fake listings, and slip back under new accounts after a ban. Now our agents catch them…

The films and the wider team effort

Across the campaign

$65K → $1.7M ARR across the campaign · monthly demos 40 → 145 (3.6×) · 1.5M+ impressions · their biggest revenue month on record. The films were one part of a wider team effort.

$65K$1.7M

During the launch and three-month campaign I worked on, SixtyFour’s ARR grew $65K → $1.7M. The films were one part of the team’s wider go-to-market work.

My campaign window: June 20th – September 20th

  • Monthly demos booked grew from 40 to 145, a 3.6x increase
  • 1.5M+ impressions across the three months, organic, founder-account distribution
  • 73.1K views on the marketplace fraud launch post
  • SixtyFour's largest revenue month on record across a 16-month tracking window
  • $250K+ collected in July alone, tracking to $300K+ by EOM (per founders)
