The story

Founded 2016 as a music app studio (piano/guitar/DJ tutorials). Pivoted in 2020-2023 into health & wellness subscription apps (Luvly face yoga, Dancebit, NutriMate, FitMe, EnjoyMe), following the direct-to-consumer performance-marketing playbook popularized by AppLovin-era subscription studios. Today Gismart is effectively a portfolio of subscription mobile apps monetizing via Apple/Google IAP plus direct web checkout, not a fintech.
