What Postcard does

Postcard is a privately held, micro-cap company founded in 2016 with a New York-listed headquarters and 1-10 employees. Its core product is "Postcard News," a single online news portal that delivers digital journalism and news content to online audiences, described in the data as an "online news portal platform." The company's geographic footprint, based on the available record, includes Karnataka, India, where its operator Mahesh Vikram Hegde is identified as running the portal, and where it became the subject of a regulatory complaint in April 2024.

The company has no disclosed revenue model, no documented pricing, and no named customers or B2B contracts. Its only recorded funding event is a 2019 round from Sauce.vc with a $0 listed value, and its primary web domain (gopostcard.com) is listed for resale on HugeDomains for $4,095. There is one co-founder on record, Giancaro Roma (co-founder & COO). No proprietary technology stack, AI capabilities, certifications, partnerships, or distribution partnerships are documented. The information signals an extremely early-stage, single-product content operation with constrained capital, no disclosed monetization, and recent regulatory friction related to its editorial activity.
