MyPublicInbox

What MyPublicInbox does

MyPublicInbox is a Madrid-based communication platform, operated by MyPublicInbox S.L. and headquartered in Móstoles, that connects general users with verified public figures across entertainment, sports, journalism, music, literature, and professional fields. The platform's core economic mechanism is a proprietary time-based virtual credit called Tempos, which users purchase (via PayPal, card, Bizum, or cryptocurrency) and spend on paid interactions such as secure messages, virtual meetings, and video greetings; public profiles set their own per-message rates and earn Tempos that they may redeem or donate to NGO partners.

The platform is built on a messaging infrastructure that includes secure email-style direct communication, one-on-one virtual meetings, video greetings, private chat rooms ("Conversations"), acknowledgments, and events, supplemented by add-on modules spanning online reputation analysis, social media security and impersonator detection, Wikipedia biography management, Amazon product display, VRM avatar creation via Union Avatars, AI-generated portraits, and book publishing through 0xWORD. Native iOS and Android applications complement the web platform, and authentication is supported via Google and LinkedIn OAuth. The stated scale is 30,000+ users, 4,000+ public profiles, 800+ profiles donating Tempos to NGOs, and "thousands" of NGO interactions, with "hundreds of successful daily uses" of platform services.

MyPublicInbox monetizes through a mix of usage-based Tempos consumption, transaction fees on virtual meetings and video greetings, subscription and one-time fees for premium services, and marketplace commissions from external stores. It serves four primary segments: individual users ("contactors") seeking access to public figures, public profiles monetizing their time and identity, companies engaging in influencer marketing and mentorship, and NGOs receiving Tempo donations. The platform operates in Spanish and English, claims a global digital footprint, and is privately held with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or acquisition activity.

Revenue model

1. Tempos Purchase and Message Unit Payments: Users purchase Tempos (virtual credit packages) to pay for message units sent to public profiles. Each public profile sets their own price for message units (texts of 200-1000 words). When a message is sent, the cost in Tempos is deducted. Public profiles receive payments based on messages they receive, read, and respond to within the deadline.
2. Service Fees (Virtual Meetings, Video Greetings): Public profiles can offer virtual meetings and video greeting services, setting their own Tempo rates. Video greetings can have different rates for personal vs. commercial purposes. Public profiles have 14 days to fulfill video greeting requests.
3. Acknowledgments and Donations: Users can send recognition messages with Tempos to other users and public profiles. Public profiles can donate part or all of their earned Tempos to charitable causes and NGO partners.
4. Premium Services (Online Reputation, Social Media, Wikipedia): Additional paid services including online reputation management and enhancement, social media protection and optimization (X security analysis, impersonator detection, account recovery), and Wikipedia biography creation/maintenance.
5. VR/AR and Avatar Services: VRM avatar creation services, including AI-generated portraits and 3D scanning via partner Union Avatars and AR Future. VRM marketing services for events and conferences.
6. Domain Protection and Purchases: Personal domain protection service allowing users to acquire domains using Tempos to prevent impersonation and redirect visitors to their MyPublicInbox profile or personal pages.
7. Online Store Integration: External online stores can integrate with MyPublicInbox to allow users to redeem their Tempos for coupons on partner websites.

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Buy Me a Coffee: Buy Me a Coffee is a creator-tipping and micro-payment platform for individuals to receive support from fans. It competes with the Tempos-based micro-payment engine underlying MyPublicInbox's economy.
• Cameo for Business / Memmo for Business: Cameo and Memmo have both expanded into corporate gifting, employee engagement, and influencer marketing — directly competing with MyPublicInbox's 'Companies' service line.
• Tribute: Tribute (formerly Cameo for Charity) enables celebrity video messages to support fundraising. It overlaps with MyPublicInbox's NGO donation and social impact angle.

Direct peers

• Cameo: Cameo is the global leader in personalized video shoutouts from celebrities and athletes. It is the direct benchmark for MyPublicInbox's video greetings and message units business, with a much larger roster, brand, and capital base.
• Starsona: Starsona is a personalized video message platform connecting fans with athletes, musicians, and celebrities. It is a direct competitor to MyPublicInbox's video greetings and message units offering with a similar per-message pricing model.
• Memmo: Memmo is a European-based personalized video message platform offering celebrity shoutouts across Europe. It is a near-identical model to MyPublicInbox's video greetings product and operates in overlapping geographies (Spain, broader EU).

Broad incumbents

• Patreon: Patreon is a leading creator monetization platform for subscriptions, memberships, and tips. It competes in the broader creator-economy space where MyPublicInbox's Tempos system sits, although its core model is subscription-based rather than per-message.
• LinkedIn: LinkedIn is the dominant professional networking platform and increasingly enables direct creator monetization (Newsletters, Subscriptions). MyPublicInbox's professional/expert profile segment overlaps with LinkedIn's creator tools.
• Facebook / Meta: Meta operates Facebook and Instagram, both of which are rolling out creator monetization (Stars, Subscriptions, Badges) that compete with MyPublicInbox's core messaging and gifting services for public figures.
• X (Twitter): X (formerly Twitter) is the underlying platform MyPublicInbox integrates with for verification (1,000+ follower auto-onboarding) and social media security. X is also building native creator monetization (subscriptions, tips) that competes with MyPublicInbox's Tempos model.
