Description
  • Value proposition

    [Automatic translation follows] Mood Messenger is the mobile messaging service created by the start-up Caléa, led by Saïd Hadjiat.

    The start-up was founded in 2014 to develop a revolutionary idea: to allow users to access, in their mobile messaging and without leaving their conversation, a wide range of content and services (book a restaurant, a movie, a taxi, etc.) that they can share directly.

    In order to test this innovative technology and its monetization mechanisms, the Caléa team launched its application on the Google Play Store in 2015: Mood Messenger. In less than a year, more than a million users downloaded the application and Mood Messenger became the highest-rated messaging service in the Store.

    The combination that created this little miracle?
    => New features and regular new features
    => A very playful side, inspired by a video game rock star (Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, etc.), Olivier Lhermitte, CTO & co-founder of Caléa, who quickly finds his audience (Millenials)
    => Listening attentively to users – the team's priority – with an excellent "support" service

    With this enthusiasm, the founders of the start-up will very quickly consider raising funds. 2 million euros will be invested by the French fund IXO at the end of 2016. To date, almost 4 million users have voted for the SMS application, which will be directly integrated into their phones by several manufacturers in 2018.

  • Original language

    Mood Messenger est la messagerie mobile créée par la start-up Caléa, dirigée par Saïd Hadjiat.

    La start up est fondée en 2014 pour développer une idée révolutionnaire : permettre aux utilisateurs d’accéder, dans leur messagerie mobile et sans quitter leur conversation, à un large éventail de contenus et de services (réserver un restaurant, une séance de ciné, un taxi...) qu’ils peuvent partager en direct.

    Afin de tester cette technologie innovante et ses mécaniques de monétisation, l’équipe de Caléa lance en 2015 sur le Google Play Store son application : Mood Messenger. En moins d’un an, plus d’un million d’utilisateurs téléchargent l’application et Mood Messenger devient la messagerie la mieux notée du Store.

    Le combo qui a engendré ce petit miracle ?
    => Des fonctionnalités inédites et des nouveautés régulières
    => Un côté très ludique, insufflé par une rock star du jeu vidéo (Electronic Arts, Ubisoft...), Olivier Lhermitte, CTO & co-fondateur de Caléa, qui rencontre rapidement son public (Millenials)
    => Une écoute attentive des utilisateurs – la priorité de l’équipe – avec un excellent service “support”

    Forts de cet engouement, les fondateurs de la start-up vont très vite envisager une levée de fonds. 2 millions d’euros seront ainsi investis par le fond français IXO à la fin de l’année 2016. À ce jour, bientôt 4 millions d’utilisateurs ont plébiscité l’application SMS, qui sera en 2018 directement intégrée par plusieurs constructeurs dans leurs téléphones.
