Angel Investor for Furry Media Universe
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
Freelancer Project: Angel Investor for Public Domain Furry Media Universe
Introduction
I'm Thomas B. Sweet (aka Anthro Teacher), creator of AnthroHeart — a heart-driven, public domain media universe with over 10GB of finished assets including:
147 AI-assisted songs (MP3 & WAV masters)
2 full novels + 149-page poetry book
WordPress site backup with lore & community hub
Audio/image metadata embedding (e.g. metadata.anthroentertainment.com)
Branding system that empowers artists to watermark above their images non-destructively
Fully copyright-owned character designs (8 characters, $400 paid)
Archive-ready, remix-friendly, and public domain-focused
Investment Offer
$10,000 investment, split into 5 milestones of $2,000
10% gross receipts share from licensing & asset deals
Funds go entirely to business infrastructure — no personal pay
I am offering a total of 10% gross receipts, to be shared pro rata among up to 5 angel investors based on contribution size.
For example, a $2,000 investor would receive 2% of gross receipts. This pool is capped at 10%, and I take no personal income until off disability.
Milestone Schedule for $2,000 Investment
(Subject to change — I'm new to funding and open to guidance)
Milestone Amount Purpose Deliverables
1. Setup & Hosting Launch $400 Pay for first 2 months of VPS + Windows Metal servers with Liquid Web Confirmed hosting & backups; access shared
2. Metadata & AnthrOS Deployment $400 Finalize & deploy AnthrOS media OS, metadata layer, WAV/MP3 embedding tools Live metadata embedding shown in demo assets
3. Artist Onboarding Toolkit $400 Prepare branding/donation watermark system and education materials PDF/HTML guide for artists + hosted tutorial
4. Lore & Novel Formatting/Archival $400 Clean up novels, Cio Psalms, and character bios for official archive Novels uploaded to Internet Archive in final form
5. Promo & Licensing Launch $400 Launch licensing site, public call for remixers/artists using AnthroHeart IP Landing page online, metadata-licensed sample pack downloadable
Financials & Banking
Business: Debt-free LLC, operating under DBA since 2019
Personal: Capital One Checking & Savings

$21,000 invested on Freelancer.com (funded from cashed-out 401(k))
Investor funds will be handled via business accounts with full separation for auditing.
Why It Matters
This is Zootopia meets Soul meets Public Domain:
Open-source style IP with trademarked branding
Built first, pitched second — over 3 novels, 147 mastered songs, original lore
Fully embedded metadata system via AnthrOS OS layer
Final Milestone Covers
Hosting: Linux VPS + Windows Metal Cloud (via Liquid Web) [Migrating from IONOS]
Fiber: AT&T 1Gbps install
Cloud backups
Deployment of AnthrOS (crashproof, metadata-driven OS)
Thanks
