Mobile Only Accelerator (MOX), an SOSV accelerator for mobile-first markets in Southeast Asia and South Asia, has announced the seven graduates of its ninth cohort. This six-month-long intensive accelerator programme receives about 150 applications per month.
Selected startups receive US$100,000 to US$120,000 in funding from SOSV and MOX, along with valuable mentorships and partnerships.
Some of the programme’s partners include smartphone brands, mobile telcos, ad networks, media companies, financial institutions, and mobile content providers in Southeast Asia, India and beyond.
“The monopoly-like position and expansion into every industry in the market by internet leaders has driven increased interest from banks, telcos, retail chains and even smartphone brands in promoting MOX mobile services in return for long term revenue share,” William Bao Bean, Managing Director and founder of MOX, said in a press statement.
“We are seeing an amazing inflexion point with monthly active users of MOX apps, growing five times to almost 80 million over the past year with zero spent on marketing.”
While all of MOX’s accelerators have always been held in person, due to COVID-19, the current programme is held entirely virtual.
Here are the seven startups graduating from MOX’s ninth cohort:
Deliverfuel (India): A startup which provides a fully licensed on-demand fuel delivery service.
MobiGarage (India): A platform for mobile and laptop care solutions.
MyRobin (Indonesia): Provides on-demand, pre-screened and flexible workforce to businesses within 24 hours.
PriceOye (Pakistan): An e-commerce platform for smartphones and electronics.
Superpro.ai (India): Helps working professionals bring offline consultations online with AI.
Tokn (India): Helps local retailers obtain new customers via cross-promotion.
