Taltol is an online marketplace for Arabic digital products like images, graphics, video and animation. It aims to fill the gap between high demand and low supply in the MENA region. The request is for $75k in funding to launch the beta website, conduct market testing and modifications, and rollout the full platform. Revenue comes from taking a 40-50% commission on each transaction between suppliers uploading their work and customers purchasing items. The goal is to break even within 18 months with $250k in expected annual revenues after that point.
