GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company currently has loses and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends to position itself so that it will be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at August 31, 2024. and for the related periods presented.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures
(a) Dismissal of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On October 15, 2024, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Olayinka Oyebola & Co. (the "Former Auditor") as the Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.
The reports of the Former Auditor on the Company’s financial statements for the period from June 6, 2023 (inception) through May 31, 2024 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles except that the report contained an explanatory paragraph stating that there was substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the period September 5, 2023, the date of our engagement with Former Auditor, and October 15, 2024, the date of dismissal, the Company did not experience any disagreements, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, between itself and Former Auditor on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to Former Auditor’s satisfaction, would have caused Former Auditor to make reference to such disagreements in its audit reports. During the period June 6, 2023 (inception) through the date of the Former Auditor’s termination on October 15, 2024, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company provided Former Auditor with a copy of the above disclosures and requested that Former Auditor provide the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made above. A copy of Former Auditor’s letter dated October 16, 2024 was furnished as Exhibit 16.1 to the current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC by the Company on October 16, 2024.
(b) Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
On October 16, 2024, our Board of Directors approved the appointment of Victor Mokuolu CPA PLLC, as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended August 31, 2024.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended August 31, 2024 and August 31, 2023, and the subsequent interim period through the date of this report, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Victor Mokuolu CPA PLLC regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed , or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the consolidated financial statements of the Company, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company by Victor Mokuolu CPA PLLC, that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a "disagreement" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.
Our management, with the participation of our CEO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon this evaluation, our CEO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is described below.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2024, the Company determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below.
| · | Corporate governance - Key management personnel of the Company and members on the Board of Directors are the same. Functional responsibilities under corporate governance are performed by a director, who is also the Company's Chief Executive Officer. There is no audit committee. Consequently, these factors result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, resulting in inadequate evaluation of the application of accounting principles and disclosures. Additionally, there is significant risk of management override of controls. |
| · | Absence of audit committee and internal audit function results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, resulting in inadequate evaluation of the application of accounting principles and disclosures. Currently the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee and does not include a member that is independent of management to provide the necessary oversight over management’s activities. |
Policies and procedures
| · | Risk Assessment - not having a sufficiently documented risk assessment process to identify and analyze risks of misstatement due to error and/or fraud, and not having sufficiently documented compliance communication and investigation policies. |
| · | Lack of formal policies and procedures results in ineffective controls over routine accounting transactions processing and financial reporting. |
Accounting, Financial Close and Reporting
| · | The Company does not have enough skilled accounting resources supporting the financial close and reporting processes to ensure (i) changes and entry to spreadsheets utilized in the financial reporting process were properly reviewed, (ii) significant estimates and judgments were adequately supported, reviewed, approved and evaluated against actual experiences, (iii) effective and timely analysis and reconciliation of significant accounts, and (iv) a proper review of period close entries and procedures. |
| · | Failure to properly design financial closing and reporting process to record, review, and monitor compliance with generally accepted accounting principles for transactions on a timely basis. |
| · | Inadequate Internal Controls: The Company has only one member of management who is also the Company’s sole director, therefore the Company lacks adequate segregation of duties. |
| · | Inadequate IT Controls: As of August 31, 2024, the Company retains copies of all financial data and material agreements; however, there is no formal procedure or evidence of normal backup of the Company’s data or off-site storage of data in the event of theft, misplacement, or loss due to unmitigated factors. |
Accordingly, the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.
As a result of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control- Integrated Framework issued by COSO in 2013.
\
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended August 31, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(“the Company”) as of August 31, 2024, and August 31, 2023, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows, for the 12 months ended August 31, 2024 and the period from inception (June 6, 2023) to August 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2024, and the period from inception (June 6, 2023) to August 31, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the 12 months ended August 31, 2024, and the period from inception (June 6, 2023) to August 31, 2023, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Substantial Doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 of the financial statements, the Company is currently experiencing losses and has not yet secured a stable revenue stream to cover its operating costs over a prolonged period. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

August 31, 2023

Note 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company currently has losses and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends to position itself so that it will be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.
For the period from June 6, 2023, to August 31, 2023, the Company had no revenue, incurred a net loss of $979, and showed an accumulated deficit of $979. For the year ended August 31, 2024, the Company reported a gross profit of $11,562, incurred a net loss of $41,236, and showed an accumulated deficit of $42,215. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company’s year-end is August 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement," defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standards apply to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The Company determines the fair values of its assets and liabilities based on a fair value hierarchy that includes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: | defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; |
Level 2: | defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and |
Level 3: | defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
All income tax amounts reflect the use of the liability method under accounting for income taxes. Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes arising primarily from differences between financial and tax reporting purposes. Current year expense represents the amount of income taxes paid, payable or refundable for the period.
Deferred income taxes, net of appropriate valuation allowances, are determined using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the taxes are actually paid. Valuation allowances are recorded against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be realized. When an uncertain tax position meets the more likely than not recognition threshold, the position is measured to determine the amount of benefit or expense to recognize in the financial statements.
The Company’s income tax returns are subject to review and examination by federal, state and local governmental authorities. As of August 31, 2024, there is no year currently under examination with federal, state and local governmental authorities. To the extent penalties and interest are incurred through an examination, they would be included in the income tax section of the statement of operations.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes income (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
Revenue Recognition
Under Accounting Standards Codification No. 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606"), the Company recognizes revenue when control of promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 establishes a five-step model for revenue recognition:
1. Identify the contract with the customer: The Company enters into subscription agreements for its API services with customers. The Company offers the "AI Powered Tattoo Artist," a subscription-based API service that utilizes artificial intelligence to generate custom tattoo designs. The "AI Powered Tattoo Artist" API is available through both a free trial plan with limited features and paid subscription plans for different amount of API requests.
2. Identify the performance obligations in the contract: The Company's performance obligation is providing access to its API services for the subscription period.
3. Determine the transaction price: The transaction price is the fixed amount agreed upon in the subscription agreement, adjusted for any variable consideration such as discounts or rebates.
4. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations: The transaction price is allocated entirely to the performance obligation of API access.
5. Recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied: Revenue is recognized over time as API access is provided, typically ratably over the subscription period.
Provisions for discounts, rebates, estimated returns, and other adjustments are considered variable consideration and are estimated and accounted for in determining the transaction price. Revenue is recognized only to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed all the recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and we do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the Company.
Note 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets relate to the website and API software, which the Company purchased on June 30, 2023. The Website was put on use on August 30, 2023 and amortization is expected to cover a period of 5 years. Amortization expense for the period ended August 31, 2023 was $0. As of August 31, 2023, the amount of intangible assets is $16,500. As of August 31, 2024, the amount of intangible assets is $173,800 consisting of website and API. Amortization expense for the period ended August 31, 2024 was $24,858.
Intangible assets amounts are as follows:
| | Website Development | | Ai-Powered Tattoo Cost Calculator Api | | Total |
Estimated Useful Life (Years) | | 5 | | 5 | | |
| | | | | | |
Total Cost of the Asset | $ | 81,000 | $ | 92,800 | $ | 173,800 |
Accumulated Depreciation at August 31, 2024 | | (13,658) | | (11,200) | | (24,858) |
Net Book Value at August 31, 2024 | $ | 67,342 | $ | 81,600 | $ | 148,942 |
| | | | | | |
Depreciation Expense for year ended August 31, 2024 | $ | 13,658 | $ | 11,200 | $ | 24,858 |
Depreciation Expense from June 6, 2023 (Inception) to August 31, 2023 | $ | - | $ | - | $ | - |
Note 5 – COMMON STOCK
The Company has 4,500,000, $0.001 par value shares of common stock authorized.
There were 4,500,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2024 and 2023.
Voting Common Stock
All shares of common stock have voting rights and are identical. All holders of shares of voting common stock shall at every meeting of the stockholders be entitled to one vote for each share of the capital stock held by such stockholder.
Non-voting Common Stock
All of the other terms of the Non-Voting Common Stock shall be identical to the Voting Common Stock, except for the right of first refusal that attaches to the Non-Voting Common Stock, as explained in the Company’s Bylaws.
Note 6 – RELATED PARTY
Effective June 6, 2023, the Company entered a Loan Agreement with its CEO. The lender agreed to lend a total of $70,000 payable in applicable installments over the Term of the loan. The CEO agreed to an interest rate of 0% and a Term of 5 years. Effective November 14, 2023, the CEO agreed to increase maximum amount of the Loan to $220,000. The amount due under the Loan was $180,297 and $11,704 as of August 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Imputed interest expense of $6,905 for the year ended August 31, 2024 was recorded as additional paid in capital.
Note 7 – INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). As a result of the implementation of ASC 740, the Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of November 30, 2023, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $979. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards.
The valuation allowance at August 31, 2023 was approximately $206. The net change in valuation allowance during year ended August 31, 2024 was $42,215. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.
The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following:
| | As of August 31, 2024 | | As of August 31, 2023 | |
Non-current deferred tax assets: | | | | | |
Net operating loss carry forward | $ | (42,215) | $ | (979) | |
Total deferred tax assets | | (8,865) | | (206) | |
Valuation allowance | $ | 8,865 | $ | 206 | |
Net deferred tax assets | $ | - | $ | - | |
The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on consideration of these items, management has determined that enough uncertainty exists relative to the realization of the deferred income tax asset balances to warrant the application of a full valuation allowance as of August 31, 2024. All tax years since inception remain open for examination by taxing authorities.
The related deferred tax benefit on the above unutilized tax losses has a full valuation allowance not recognized against it as there is no certainty of its realization. Management has evaluated tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 and has not identified any significant tax positions, other than those disclosed.
The actual tax benefit at the expected rate of 21% differs from the expected tax benefit for the year ended August 31, 2024 as follows:
| | Year ended August 31, 2024 | | Year ended August 31, 2023 |
Computed “expected” tax expense (benefit) | $ | 8,865 | $ | (206) |
Change in valuation allowance | $ | (8,865) | $ | 206 |
Actual tax expense (benefit) | $ | - | $ | - |
Note 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, the Company may become a party to litigation matters involving claims against it. From August 31, 2024 through December 6, 2024, there are no current matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Note 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 855 “Subsequent Events”, the Company has analyzed its operations through by December 11, 2024 and the date these financial statements were available to be issued, for the period from September 1, 2024 till December 11, 2024 the Company issued 1,299,469 shares of common stocks at $0.03 per share for cash proceeds of $29,238.
