Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of presentation

Basis of presentation

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole.

Certain information and note disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP has been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such accounting principles and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive financial statements. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 of the Company which were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2026.

The Company consolidates its subsidiaries that are wholly-owned and majority owned, and entities that are variable interest entities (“VIE”) where the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent entity. Myseum.AI, Inc., and RPM Interactive, which was a majority-owned subsidiary through August 27, 2024, became a VIE after August 27, 2024, and was deconsolidated on December 12, 2025. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On December 12, 2025, based on the Company’s analysis, the Company deconsolidated RPM Interactive following the sale of its interest in this VIE (see Note 3). In accordance with ASC 205-20, the results of operations and the gains on deconsolidation for RPM Interactive are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. As of December 31, 2025, the assets and liabilities of these entities are no longer included in the consolidated balance sheet.

Going concern considerations

Going concern considerations

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital to fund its research and development (“R&D”) activities and meet its obligations on a timely basis. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $777,159, short-term investments of $1,591,377 and working capital of $1,935,521. Short-term investments include U.S. Treasury zero coupon bills that are all highly rated and have initial maturities between one and five months. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,861,610 and net cash used in operations amounted to $1,251,131 and had nominal revenues. There can be no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to allow the Company to successfully continue its R&D activities and meet its obligations. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary funds, significant reductions in spending and the delay or cancellation of planned activities may be necessary. These actions would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and prospects. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Noncontrolling interests

Noncontrolling interests

The Company follows ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (“NCI”) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries. In accordance with ASC Topic 810-10-45, the Company presented noncontrolling interests as a separate component of total shareholders’ equity on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially-owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to noncontrolling interests even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the net loss attributed to NCI was separately designated in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of December 31, 2025 and during the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company had no noncontrolling interest. Losses attributable to NCI in a subsidiary may exceed a NCI’s interests in the subsidiary’s equity. The excess attributable to NCI is attributed to those interests. NCI was attributed to their share of losses even if that attribution resulted in a deficit NCI balance.

Prior to December 12, 2025, the Company allocated certain corporate common expenses to its subsidiaries based on the ratio of direct subsidiary expenses to total consolidated expenses. Management believes that this allocation method is reasonable.

Due to the issuance of common shares by RPM Interactive, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded aggregate initial negative noncontrolling interest of $188,810 in total equity for the portion of additional equity ownership not attributable to the Company based on the minority interest holders’ ownership interest in the carrying value of RPM Interactive’s equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company also allocated $145,914 of the net loss of the subsidiary to noncontrolling interest resulting in a total noncontrolling interest deficit of $2,472,513 as of March 31, 2025. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there is no noncontrolling interest balance remaining on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Variable interest entities

Variable interest entities

Pursuant to ASC 810-10-25-22, an entity is defined as a VIE if it either lacks sufficient equity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or it is structured such that the holders of the voting rights do not substantively participate in the gains and losses of the entity. When determining whether an entity that meets the definition of a business qualifies for a scope exception from applying VIE guidance, the Company considers whether: (i) it has participated significantly in the design of the entity, (ii) it has provided more than half of the total financial support to the entity, and (iii) substantially all of the activities of the VIE are conducted on its behalf. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary, the party that has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and has the right to receive benefits or the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could be potentially significant to the VIE. The primary beneficiary assessment must be re-evaluated on an ongoing basis.

RPM Interactive

Based on the Company’s analysis, on August 27, 2024, the Company determined that RPM Interactive met the definition of a VIE under the VIE model, which provides for situations in which control may be demonstrated other than by the possession of voting rights in RPM Interactive. Until the date of sale on December 12, 2025, the Company continued to have the power to direct the activities of RPM Interactive that most significantly impact RPM Interactive’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of RPM Interactive that could potentially be significant to RPM Interactive or the right to receive benefits from RPM Interactive that could potentially be significant to RPM Interactive. Immediately prior to the sale and deconsolidation, the Company retained approximately 33.7% ownership of RPM Interactive. As of December 31, 2024, the Company retained approximately 39.7%. As a result of the sale and deconsolidation on December 12, 2025, the Company no longer consolidates RPM Interactive and does not hold a variable interest in any entity.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets do not include any assets and liabilities from VIEs.

See Note 3 – Discontinued Operations And Deconsolidation.

Use of estimates

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the consolidated financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, the valuation of equity securities, the valuation of lease liabilities and related right of use assets, the valuation of short-term investments, the valuation of deferred tax assets, the allocation of corporate expenses to subsidiaries which impacts noncontrolling interest, and the fair value of non-cash equity transactions.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalent balances at one financial institution that is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the FDIC up to $250,000. On March 31, 2026, the Company had cash in excess of FDIC limits of approximately $415,000. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits. Any material loss that the Company may experience in the future could have an adverse effect on its ability to pay its operational expenses or make other payments and may require the Company to move its cash to other high quality financial institutions.

Fair value measurements and fair value of financial instruments

Fair value measurements and fair value of financial instruments

The carrying value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and due to related party are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (the “FASB”) accounting standard for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy of its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

   March 31, 2026   December 31, 2025 
Description  Level 1   Level 2   Level 3   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3

The Company’s short-term investments are level 1 measurements and are based on redemption value at each date. The Company’s investment in equity securities are level 3 measurements fair values are considered Level 3 when management makes significant assumptions to determine the fair value of the equity securities. On March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company recorded the investment in equity securities, which consisted of Series E preferred shares in Avalon GloboCare Corp., a publicly held company, at estimated fair value using a dribble out method using the following assumptions:

A discount for the five-month prohibition on conversion
A liquidity discount resulting from the 4.99% ownership limitation
Market volatility and time value considerations associated with phased conversion

The level 3 investment value may fluctuate from period to period based on changes in the market volatility and trading volume of the investees common stock.

The change in the fair value measurement using significant inputs (Level 3) is summarized below:

Investment in equity securities:    
Balance at December 31, 2025  $2,920,000 
Change in fair value - unrealized loss on equity securities   (1,194,000)
Balance at March 31, 2026  $1,726,000 
Short-term investments

Short-term investments

The Company’s portfolio of short-term investments consists of marketable debt securities which are comprised solely of highly rated U.S. government securities with maturities of more than three months, but less than one year. The Company classifies these as available-for-sale at purchase date and will reevaluate such designation at each period end date. The Company may sell these marketable debt securities prior to their stated maturities depending upon changing liquidity requirements. These debt securities are classified as current assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) and as a component of the unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. Gains and losses are recognized when realized. Gains and losses are determined using the specific identification method and are reported in other income (expense), net in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Short-term investments are carried at fair value, which is based on quoted market prices for such securities, if available, or is estimated on the basis of quoted market prices of financial instruments with similar characteristics.

An impairment loss may be recognized when the decline in fair value of the debt securities is determined to be other-than-temporary. The Company evaluates its investments for other-than-temporary declines in fair value below the cost-basis each quarter, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost basis of the short-term investments may not be recoverable. The evaluation is based on a number of factors, including the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been below the cost basis, as well as adverse conditions related specifically to the security, such as any changes to the credit rating of the security and the intent to sell or whether the Company will more likely than not be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis.

Investment in equity securities, at fair value

Investment in equity securities, at fair value

Equity investments are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses recorded on the accompanying consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Realized gains and losses are determined on a specific identification basis which is recorded in earnings or loss as a net realized gain (loss) on equity investments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company reviews investments in equity securities, at fair value, for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recovered.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable

The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable and notes receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries under the current expected credit loss method. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging and expected future write-offs, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts and notes receivable considered at risk or uncollectible. On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses”. In accordance with ASC 326, an allowance is maintained for estimated forward-looking losses resulting from the possible inability of customers to make the required payments (current expected losses). The amount of the allowance is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers. The expense associated with the allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is recognized in general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, accounts receivable amounted to $73 and $83, respectively, which are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $150 and $150. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not recognize any bad debt expense.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or lease term including scheduled renewal terms. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Capitalized internal-use software costs

Capitalized internal-use software costs

The Company capitalizes costs to develop or purchase internal-use software in accordance with ASC section 350-40, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software. Costs incurred to develop internal-use software are expensed as incurred during the preliminary project stage. Internal-use software development costs are capitalized upon purchase and during the application development stage, which is after: (i) the preliminary project stage is completed; and (ii) management authorizes and commits to funding the project and it is probable the project will be completed and used to perform the intended function. Capitalization ceases at the point where the software project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, and after all substantial testing is completed. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if it is probable that those expenditures will result in additional functionality. Amortization is provided for on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the internal-use software development costs and related upgrades and enhancements. When the existing software is replaced with new software, the unamortized costs of the old software are expensed when the new software is ready for its intended use.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

Deferred offering costs

Deferred offering costs

The Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A. Deferred offering costs consist of legal, accounting, and underwriting fees directly related to proposed equity offerings. Deferred offering costs will be deferred until the completion of the private offerings, at which time they will be reclassified to additional paid-in capital as a reduction of the offering proceeds. Should a proposed offering be abandoned, these deferred costs are charged to operations in the period the abandonment occurs.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company has capitalized certain offering costs related to its efforts to raise capital through the sale of its common stock pursuant to an Equity Sales Agreement and additional capitalized costs related to legal fees and the preparation of its registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-291818). As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, capitalized deferred offering costs amounted to $146,235 and $78,645, respectively, which is reflected on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

Revenue recognition

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires revenue to be recognized in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

In accordance with ASU Topic 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenues from subscription fees from the Company’s messaging application in the month they are earned. Annual and lifetime subscription payments received that are related to future periods are recorded as deferred revenue to be recognized as revenues over the contract term or period. Lifetime subscriptions are being recognized to revenues over the estimated useful life of the subscription of 12 months. During the three months ended March 31 2026 and 2025, all of the Company’s revenue was generated from subscription revenues.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs

The Company applies ASC 720 “Other Expenses” to account for advertising related costs. Pursuant to ASC 720-35-25-1, the Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising costs were $231,739 and $33,837 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and are included in marketing and advertising expenses on the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Leases

Leases

The Company applied ASC Topic 842, Leases (Topic 842) to arrangements with lease terms of 12 months or more. Operating lease right of use assets (“ROU”) represents the right to use the leased asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of future payments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

Income taxes

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”), which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.

The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the consolidated financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.

The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement”, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed. 

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation–Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee, non-employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Basic and diluted net loss per share

Basic and diluted net loss per share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. The following were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net loss.

Segment reporting

Segment reporting

The Company operates as a single operating segment as a technology-based company that is developing social media applications and technologies. In accordance with ASC 280 – “Segment Reporting”, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similarities in economic characteristics such as nature of services; and procurement processes. All revenues and expenses as reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss are allocated to the one segment.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires entities to provide more detailed disaggregation of expenses in the income statement, focusing on the nature of the expenses rather than their function. The new disclosures will require entities to separately present expenses for significant line items, including but not limited to, depreciation, amortization, and employee compensation. Entities will also be required to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, provide a definition of what constitutes selling expenses. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.  

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The amendments in this update require internal-use software development cost capitalization to begin when both of the following occur: management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and that the software will be used to perform its intended function. The amendments also eliminate the accounting considerations of software development stages. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact ASC 2025-06 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
