Idea

Introduction

Heights aims to build the leading braincare brand in the world. Our purpose is simple—to make people care as much about their brains as they do their skin, hair, nails, and other daily routines.

We create products that nourish, educate, inform, and expand your brain's capacity. After over a year in design and research, our launch product is the exceptionally high-quality 'Smart Supplement'.

Designed by leading neuroscientists and dieticians, it combines 20 of the key essential nutrients and fatty acids your brain needs—that 99% of people don’t get from their diet alone.

With sustainability at the core of everything we do, our plant-based capsules arrive by subscription in award-winning, fully recyclable packaging. The user experience is designed to help people build and maintain a healthy habit of daily consumption—which is why our churn rate is 2x better than the industry average.

As a brand, we're here to make you think.

Monetisation strategy

Build audience interested in braincare through creating impactful content across email, video, and social channels.

We currently sell one product the smart supplement on a subscription basis, which can be paid on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis.

In the future we intend to launch new high quality physical products, that we feel will make an impact for our community.

We also plan to build digital tools, that help our subscribers reach their Heights, and we may consider a digital only subscription if we see the demand.

Investor rewards

Please note that any discounts and/or offer listed by a company in it campaign are subject to the terms and conditions applied by that company. It is the company's responsibility to honour such discounts, rewards and/or offers and Seedrs does not take any responsibility for them.

Key information

As you may have noted from the company's articles, the company has two classes of shares, A ordinary shares (which are only held by the founders) and ordinary shares (which are held by all other shareholders). The A ordinary shares have 7x voting rights attached to them but otherwise have the same rights as ordinary shares. This is because the majority of the founders' equity interests in the company are held in options which will convert into shares over time. The 7x voting rights are designed to put the founders' in the same position as they would be in if all founder options were exercised, and the aggregate voting right of the founders is capped at their percentage shareholding of the company post-raise, assuming exercise of all founder options.

We have also factored in all founder and employee options in the pre-money valuation and share price for this round.

This round forms an extension to funds raised this year. Funds received since June 2020 have been reflected in the total amount raised.

Please read the Risk Warnings before investing. Investments should only be made by investors who understand these risks. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future.

This webpage has been approved as a financial promotion by Seedrs Limited ("Seedrs"), which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. It is not intended to be a promotion of any individual investment opportunity and is not an offer to the public. The summary information provided about investment opportunities on this webpage is intended solely to demonstrate the types of investments available on the Seedrs platform, and any investment decision should be made on the basis of the full campaign. Full campaigns are available to investors who have become authorised to invest on the Seedrs platform. All investment activities take place within the United Kingdom, and any person resident outside the United Kingdom should ensure that they are not subject to any local regulations before investing.

Valuation (pre-money)

Valuation rounded from £8,352,779

This is the fully-diluted pre-money valuation of the business (i.e. before the new investment comes in and including issued options and other equity interests). In contrast, the post-money valuation is based on inclusion of the new investment in the value.

It is calculated as the pre-money valuation plus the amount of new investment. e.g. If Company A is ascribed a pre-money valuation of £1,200,000 by prospective investors investing £300,000, its post-money valuation is £1,500,000.

Pitch type

There are 5 types of investment pitch available on Seedrs.

  • Equity
  • Convertible
  • Fund
  • Cohort
  • Secondary

Investing in a regular equity campaign is the simplest and most common way to invest in a startup. You decide which business you want to invest in, and if the campaign hits its funding target then you will become one of their shareholders. As the company becomes more valuable, so do your shares; allowing you the opportunity to share in the future success of the business.

Learn more about pitch type on Seedrs

Equity Offered

The equity offered is the percentage of the company’s shares being issued in return for the amount of investment raised.

When the amount raised is less than 100%, the equity offered is based on the target raise. Once the company has raised over 100% it is based on the total raised.

In some scenarios, entrepreneurs may accept additional direct investment after closing their Seedrs campaign. Provided this is within 6 months of the closing and on the same terms, we do not typically offer pre-emption rights on that extra investment (where you have the opportunity to invest again to maintain your percentage shareholding).

Learn more about investing and pre-emption rights.

Seedrs nominee

This shows if you are able to choose, when making an investment, that you be represented by, and your shareholding be managed by, the Seedrs nominee.

Custodian

If you invest in this Campaign, Seedrs will act as Custodian rather than provide our standard nominee service. This is due to the fact that the business is not directly involved in the share sale and Seedrs will not benefit from any rights under a shareholder agreement. As a result, Seedrs will handle administrative tasks as we do normally, but you will not have information or voting rights, updates from the business, preemption on future fundraising, or ongoing support about business trading activity.

Secondary market

This shows if the business has opted-in or opted-out of allowing its shares to be bought and sold on the secondary market.

Find out more

Direct investment

This is an option to invest and hold shares 'directly' in the company (rather than via the Seedrs Nominee). This option is only available to those investing over the threshold amount, which is determined by the fundraising company.

If you choose to hold your shares directly, you will be responsible for any contractual or administrative arrangements with the company you are investing in.

Payment options

We are not able to accept card payments for investments into this sector. You can pay for your investment by creating a bank transfer, using funds in your investment account or create a Pay by Bank payment. Your investment will only be completed once the funds have reached our account.

Business Involvement

This Campaign offers shares for sale in business that is not directly involved in this Campaign or the sale. As a result, the Campaign and post-investment experience, including investor rights, will differ from a business-led campaign on Seedrs. Most notably, the business will not engage with investors in the discussion forums both during and after the sale or provide any updates to investors.
