[ Looking for Those Who Will Succeed in the AI Era ]

People often say success is all about luck.

And they’re right — if Elon Musk had been born as a stable slave in ancient Rome, he might have spent his entire life shoveling horse manure.

Yes, success is luck. But luck isn’t that simple.

Especially in this era, we have a degree of control over our luck.

Luck can be broken down into two main factors: time and place.

The most critical aspect of time-luck is timing — being born into the right era.

Founders in the early mobile era had great timing and were able to create companies like Toss, Coupang, and Baemin.

As for place-luck, it’s about your surroundings — the people around you (family, co-founders, friends) and the environment you operate in.

Now, a new era has begun — one that goes beyond mobile: the AI era.

There’s a beta product in a $15 billion global market showing a weekly retention rate of 50%.

There’s a founding team, with a decade of startup experience distilled and ready to explode.

You can choose your luck.

You can create your success.

What will you choose?

[ We’re Building the Netflix of the AI Era ]

We empower creators to write, share, and connect freely — without restrictions.

However,

(1) The use of AI by web novel writers is still considered taboo.

(2) Due to monopolized platforms and rigid distribution structures, emerging writers rarely get the chance to reach readers.

We are redefining the rules and structure of content distribution.

Anyone who wants to become a writer can:

(1) Serialize their work with the help of AI,

(2) Connect with readers who match their style, and

(3) Earn revenue based on views.

Playtoon is the Netflix of the AI era — a creative platform for a new generation where anyone can use AI to create and receive economic incentives.
