TOKYO, JAPAN - Media OutReach Newswire - 12 June 2025 - GeoTechnologies, Inc.

(Headquarters: Tokyo Japan, President & CEO: Yoichiro Yatsurugi), has announced that move-to-earn apps "TRIMA" and "GeoSmile" surpassed twenty-three million cumulative downloads worldwide.

Move-to-earn app that rapidly gained popularity in Japan has surpassed 23 million downloads worldwide

Expanding the Japanese move-to-earn app to the world
"TRIMA", which has twenty-two million downloads in Japan, has established a solid position as the de-facto standard for move-to-earn apps. TRIMA users can earn points based on their movement and those data are analyzed by 29 universities in Japan. They are seeking how to improve the safety, efficiency, and productivity of citizens in Japan. TRIMA is the first to introduce the concept of move-to-earn apps to Japan. Based on this success, we launched "GeoSmile" worldwide as a global version of "TRIMA" in 2023.

Contributing to society through collaboration with academic institutions
"TRIMA" people flow data is used in research in various fields such as disaster prevention, crime prevention, urban development, and tourism, with the aim to establish a more livable environment in Japan that considers regional characteristics.

Growth in the US market
GeoSmile, which debuted in the US market about two years ago, has also continued to grow steadily and is expected to reach one million downloads soon. To celebrate this milestone, we will run a special campaign.

Yoichiro Yatsurugi, President and CEO of GeoTechnologies, Inc., says, "TRIMA introduced the concept of "move-to-earn" to Japan. Now, it is contributing to making Japan a more livable place through people flow analysis beyond the concept of simply earning points. This approach was also launched in the United States about two years ago, and we are reaching one million downloads. This is an important step in expanding the circle of social contribution in Japan to the United States, and we are very excited for further growth in the future".

Yas Watanabe, Chief Executive of LAJET Business Consulting LLC, comments, "I have been studying the success of GeoTechnologies' TRIMA in Japan. TRIMA has become a tool to improve users' daily lives beyond the concept of simply earning points. When the GeoSmile business in the United States continues to develop, I am confident that TRIMA's knowledge will be utilized to help improve lifestyles in the United States. The achievement of one million downloads in the United States is an important step".
