Founder and CEO of RetailVolts. Creator of GateWatch.AI and VoltDispatch. Board certified radiation oncologist. Based on a hobby farm outside Omaha, Nebraska.
Dr. Mo Abdi is a physician-entrepreneur, investor, and the founder and CEO of RetailVolts (Retail Volts Inc.), the retail investor activation firm for companies going public, newly public, and established public companies that want a larger retail investor audience: SPAC, deSPAC, IPO, direct listing, reverse merger, ETF and beyond.
RetailVolts builds awareness campaigns across Reddit, X, Stocktwits, Discord, LinkedIn, Telegram and AI search that grow communities, shape narratives, and put a company in front of the investors actively looking for opportunity. Services include weekly executive video interviews, Reddit AMAs, due diligence reports, community management, earned media, high-profile interview placement, video clipping and distribution, Web3 and digital asset activation, and SEO / AEO answer-engine strategy. RetailVolts also runs earned media that places clients in Bloomberg and other financial press, press release wire distribution to more than 2,400 outlets globally, professional videography with a recording team that travels to any site on the planet, and special events with larger than life floats and inflatables. Dr. Abdi is a member of the Forbes Business Council.
Over five years, three in stealth and two under commercial agreements, RetailVolts has worked with clients across 15 sectors, including defence, drones, robotics, AI, renewables, energy, mining, digital assets, fintech, biotech and mobility, representing more than $70 billion in combined market capitalization. Its direct retail distribution network reaches 45 million investors through 48+ distribution partners.
GateWatch.AI (gatewatch.ai) is RetailVolts' proprietary retail investor sentiment intelligence platform. It scans Reddit, X and Stocktwits in real time, scores bull and bear sentiment by platform, tracks a company's visibility in AI search engines such as ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews, and surfaces alerts when the conversation shifts.
Every RetailVolts campaign runs on GateWatch.AI, and every client receives portal seats, a daily sentiment email and a monthly sentiment report for leadership. It is also the home of the GateWatch live interview series (@GatewatchHQ), more than 140 recorded conversations with public company executives, hosted and distributed across the RetailVolts network.
VoltDispatch (voltdispatch.com, @VoltDispatch on X) is the RetailVolts news desk: a 24/7 automated market wire that posts breaking headlines around the clock, plus daily written coverage across Markets, The Degen Files, AI & Robotics, the Hormuz energy desk and The Funny Pages. Occasionally serious.
VoltDispatch gives RetailVolts an owned publishing channel for client news, interviews and due diligence, alongside the @RetailVolts and @GatewatchHQ handles and the RetailVolts LinkedIn company page with its GateWatch and VoltDispatch showcase pages.
Alongside his work as founder and CEO of RetailVolts, Dr. Abdi continues to practice as a board certified radiation oncologist, where he has helped expand access to advanced cancer treatments such as lung SABR, CNS FSRT and spine SBRT.
Much of his clinical work has focused on building collaborative, team-based care alongside colleagues in urology, neurosurgery, ENT and surgical oncology. His approach is rooted in listening, learning, and finding practical ways to improve outcomes for patients.
Dr. Abdi holds a Doctor of Medicine (MD) and a Master of Education (M.Ed.), is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada (FRCPC) and is certified by the American Board of Radiology. Before medicine he studied physics at McMaster University and completed graduate work at Queen's University. Coming from a background where resourcefulness and grit were essential, he brings a grounded, people-first mindset to both his medical practice and his entrepreneurial work, blending technical knowledge with a genuine commitment to service, innovation and impact.

Off the clock, I live on a hobby farm outside Omaha with my wife Erica, rescue horses, nine cats who showed up unannounced and stayed, and a workshop full of drones, rockets and half-programmed robots.
