Stratara

Investors

Stratara is building strategy games you play by talking. Players speak naturally with AI advisors who remember what you said, push back on bad ideas, and help you think through decisions.

The closed beta is live by request. The iOS app is in development.

What we build

  • A new way to interact: Talk naturally to software instead of clicking buttons. Say what you mean, change your mind, ask follow-ups.
  • A new kind of game: Live conversations with AI characters who stay in character and remember everything. More West Wing than Call of Duty.
  • One system for everything: The same technology powers every scenario, every advisor, and tracks all your decisions.

Why now

  • AI got good enough: For the first time, AI can have real conversations—staying in character, remembering context, and responding naturally.
  • Voice works now: No more delays or robotic responses. Speaking feels as natural as texting.
  • People want this: Everyone talks to Siri and Alexa. But no one's had a real debate with software. Until now.

Product snapshot: POTUS

Puts citizens in the President's chair. Players receive briefs, call advisors, challenge assumptions, and issue intent—entirely through natural conversation. Advisors stay in role, disagree, push back, and remember context. Every sentence can change the outcome.

  • Closed beta: live (access on request)
  • Platform: web beta; iOS in development
  • Format: voice calls + evolving briefs; unscripted, consequence-driven play

How it works - at a glance

  1. Talk, don't type: You speak your mind. Advisors brief you, question you, and carry out your orders.
  2. Multiple perspectives: Each advisor has their own personality and expertise. They disagree with each other (and you) to help you see all angles.
  3. Living world: Your decisions change everything. The situation evolves. New problems emerge from your solutions.
  4. Real consequences: The game tracks how well you're doing on multiple fronts—but doesn't force you down one path.

What makes it hard - Stratara's moat

  • Keeping characters consistent: Making advisors stay in character for hours—remembering what they said, maintaining their personality, and staying true to their expertise—requires custom AI systems we built from scratch.
  • Open-ended voice UX: Interruptions, corrections mid-sentence, and ambiguity—handled gracefully.
  • Consequence engine: Actions propagate through a persistent world model with uncertainty, not a static script.
  • Quality bar: Realism is unforgiving. We built internal harnesses for scenario QA, regression tests for advisor behavior, and methods for balancing difficulty without breaking plausibility.
  • Content operations: A pipeline for authoring, red-teaming, and calibrating games and scenarios at scale — so expansions don't dilute quality.

Execution speed

  • Already live: People are playing right now.
  • iOS underway: Path to distribution where the audience is.
  • Execution speed: Idea → working beta in weeks, not years.
  • Advisory strength: Backed by seasoned product and legal operators (consumer tech CEO and top startup counsel).
  • Inbound interest: Early conversations with investors and partners; requests for beta access from outside our network.

Audience & distribution

  • Who shows up: Strategy-minded players, politics/news followers, creators who enjoy performance, and people who want something more serious than on-rails dialogue.
  • How we grow:
    • Shareable moments from real conversations (clips play better than screenshots).
    • Events and limited-time scenarios tied to global themes.
    • Creator collaborations and live "briefing rooms."
    • Community challenges that compare outcomes without turning it into a leaderboard caricature.

Monetization (high-level)

Players pay for new scenarios and deeper experiences. No ads, no tricks—just content worth paying for.

Stratara's core beliefs

  • Conversation is the most human interface.
  • Unscripted simulation will become a mainstream entertainment category.
  • The companies that do this well will shape how people interact with technology.

Early Signals

One of the strongest indicators we've seen isn't just in the data—it's in the room.

When people play Stratara's closed beta in public—on trains, in cafés, in offices—something unusual happens. Others stop what they're doing. They overhear a conversation with the "Secretary of State" or "CIA Director," realize it's not a podcast or phone call, and lean in. Almost without fail, someone asks: "What is that?"

This reaction has repeated itself across testers. The product doesn't just engage the player—it draws in the bystanders. That curiosity is a natural engine for virality: a simulation compelling enough to make strangers interrupt and ask for the download link.

For a consumer product, there is no stronger early signal than word-of-mouth that starts without us asking.
