As we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of innovation, one truth stands out: the world runs on connections—not just those we build through technology, but the deeper connections we create with people, ideas, and opportunities. At our core, we believe in finding creative ways to bring unexpected worlds together and unlocking potential through the power of data. This isn’t just about technology; it’s about transformation. It’s about making things possible that once seemed out of reach. Of course, growth often brings difficult choices. Recently, we had to part ways with some incredibly talented team members—people who have been integral to our story. Letting go of people you respect and care about is never easy, but it doesn’t diminish their contributions or the deep respect we hold for them. If you’re looking for driven, creative individuals, please reach out—I’d be more than happy to connect you. As we look to the future, we’re committed to building with purpose, guided by what we know the world needs and the values that have carried us this far. I’m deeply grateful for the belief and support of everyone who have been part of this journey.

Data-Driven Transformation: How Helika Boosted Wanderers' Player Engagement What’s the secret behind The Wanderers turning drop-offs into over 183,000 quest completions? It wasn’t luck—it was data 📊 Starting as an NFT collection in 2021, Wanderers has since grown into a multi-media brand with games, short films, and comics. Their roguelite game, blending deck-building mechanics, launched in open beta, but something was missing. They struggled to understand player behaviors. Where were users dropping off? Which quests were too hard? 🤔 Without clear data, they were missing out on key opportunities to keep players engaged and coming back for more. That’s when we stepped in, partnering closely with Wanderers to deeply understand their goals, target audience, and overall vision through regular strategic sessions. We developed a custom analytics solution that gave Wanderers a clear, actionable view of their game data. Here’s how we made it happen: ✅ Built detailed user profiles to analyze engagement and retention behaviors. ✅ Tracked player drop-off points and conversion rates across quests and gameplay. ✅ Identified top-performing and underperforming game elements, especially within the quest system. Based on these insights, they adjusted quest difficulty — and the results were game-changing 🤯 Thanks to our insights, Wanderers saw: • 4.3x more levels played • 62% increase in progression efficiency • 5.9x more total minutes played • Helika powered and tracked over 183,000 quest completions. See how we take great care of our partners? With Helika, you’re not just getting data—you’re gaining a dedicated team that’s invested in your success. Let’s achieve greatness together 🙌
