What our startups are saying about us
The Google Cloud Platform (GCP) credits have been tremendously helpful for us at EasyAlfred. It's been a pleasure to speak with Felix and the Aurelia Ventures team throughout this year. And the value is paid in the first month in software savings.
- Brian, Founder & CEO EasyAlfred
Aurelia Ventures and their very personal, hands-on approach to support startups is really unique. They were super responsive and there for us whenever we needed them and supported us with the right advice, mentors, cloud credits and discounts at the right time.
- Merritt, Founder & CEO Meet
Being part of Aurelia Ventures has helped us to make significant progress. The support and their experience of the Aurelia Venture team have been extremely beneficial in our development.
- Reagan, Founder & CEO bamms
The cloud credits had a huge impact on our startup. They have helped us to significantly reduce our R&D expenses and allowed us to get from MVP to proof of concept in a very short time. Felix also introduced us to his extended network where we meet an amazing advisor who is also supporting us now.
- Shadi, Co-founder Axcel
Being a start-up in todays’ date we wanted to partner up with a Mentorship Program that could help us dial in further into our efforts. Partnering with Aurelia Ventures provides you with secure, community based resource for all things required to build a company from ground-up. Alessio and Felix are helpful, intelligent, and thoughtful mentors who can provide such insight and guidance.
- Armaan, Co-founder & CEO eatOS
Aurelia Ventures helped us in one of the most crucial moments of our startup development. Their personal support, throughout consulting, fast and efficient work is what makes them unique. They supported us in every aspect, whether it be advice, mentors, or cloud credits and Felix and Alessio, the founders of Aurelia Ventures, are truly awesome people who are willing to help anytime in need.
- Khasan, Co-founder & CTO PLEX
Aurelia Ventures has been instrumental in helping us get the resources and tools we need to meet the demand and needs of our business. The team at Aurelia has been extremely responsive and insightful in helping us get what we need at critical times to keep the business moving forward.
- Jake, Co-founder & COO perf.dev
Aurelia Ventures was the first venture firm that we had the opportunity to work with which truly allowed us to get up on our feet with the foundational tools and technologies required for a software startup. It's the best 'Startup Package for Startups' that I saw in the market that helped me filter through all the productivity tools, cloud environments and more - in order to focus on product development - with nice discounts! Thanks to Felix and the team for being so responsive and fun to work with 
- Kartik, Co-founder & CEO Devron.ai
Our business grew to over 1.5m users in under 6 months. Our server costs were ballooning faster than we could iterate our pricing structure. Aurelia Ventures gave us immediate access to hosting credits allowing for some breathing space to align our costs and pricing structure without needing to limit our growth trajectory.
- Ben, Founder COVID Comply
Program requirements
When you scale a company we know you don’t have much time for anything else. That’s why we offer a low-commitment program structure.
- You will have one kick-off session (can be online) with the founders of Aurelia Ventures. During the session, we can speak about your most urgent questions and challenges and we give you recommendations on how to overcome these challenges.
- Afterwards, you have access to $1,250,000+ in perks & benefits and we connect you to our mentors for a free consultation in case you need additional support from industry experts.
Our low-commitment program structure is best suited for ambitious entrepreneurs who want to benefit immediately from our mentor network and perks and benefits, don’t want to give away equity and who are interested in joining a community of like-minded (serial-) entrepreneurs.

There is no fee to apply to the program.
The program fee includes a 1-year membership for your company, unlimited access to all existing and upcoming credits, discounts and first-time consultations with the mentors. To keep access to all perks & benefits you can renew your membership for $890/year which grants you another year of unlimited access for your company to all existing and future perks & benefits.
