Very predatory, won’t refund us as what constitutes “interest” is very vague. It’s also very expensive at £179 per month. Given how few resources startups have this price with without any guarantee... Toon meer

Amazing network of investors. Thank you!

The process has been excellent right from start including feedback on the pitch and the design of the mailout. Scott is superb by the way! However, the biggest result is that we've hit our investment target within 48 hours so decided to overfund. Plus the people we've engaged with have been at a really stellar level. We'll shortly be taking down our listing which has been live for less than a week. Amazing stuff guys!

Xavier and the team were great! Reccomended...

The guys helped us put together an effective proposition to send out to their curated angel network. We were overwhelmed by the response and ended up getting introductions and useful calls with 10-15 angels and taking in investment alongside our VC's and existing angels. Thanks again chaps

An excellent network of high quality investors

An excellent network of (very) high quality, international angel investors. After a fairly simple process to list our pitch on their portal, our company PharmaSentinel.com was successful in raising Seed funding from investors who contacted us within their platform. The email notifications when an investor had viewed our pitch were also very useful. Thanks AIN!

Successfully raised with help from AIN

Recently successfully completed our pre-seed round (£100k), with help from AIN. Originally started with the Global Pro package and had a decent amount of interest, but upgraded to the Executive for the mailout, and saw a massive boost in interest from great quality leads of not just investors, but also potential advisors. Would highly recommend for anyone raising investment.

AVOID: No real investors, to me, this is all scam

This is my finally report on AIN.

We had in less than 60 days almost 100k views, however, not a single offer, in fact, not a single email but 3 scams they wanted to give as a loan, in return we needed to pay an insurance, which is a known scam trick.

There is no support at all. Before pay a subscription they write you almost every day, after you pay, you will never her from them, except you write a bad review hier.

I wrote several mails about a refund, but of course no answer at all. I did not expect something else. So now I will claim a refund to paypal.

Avoid this company in any case. You will just lose money and time.

Hi,

I have checked our email system, and we received 4 emails from you, and responded to all of them.
17 June 2019 - responded the same day
7 October 2020 - responded the next day
13 November 2020 - responded 2 days later
25 November 2020 - responded the same day

I just forwarded you our responses again. Please check your spam folder in case the emails end up there for some reason. Obviously feel free to respond to any of those emails if there are still issues that need to be addressed.

Best wishes

Incredible and Trusted Angel Network Platform!

I have been with IIN from last 2 years and this is probably the only fundraising platform which gave us result from day 1. During COVID we were able to get some great angels for my startup, would highly recommend IIN for rasing investments which has some incredible angel network around the world! Great work!

Successful fundraise

We had a very successful fundraise through the AIN. We expected it to take a while due to COVID impacting investor confidence but the process worked well and we achieved our goal.

Bait and switch

Bait and switch - not until you've got all form fields filled out and are ready to submit does it mention you'll have to pay. At that point a lot of startups will fall into the sunk cost fallacy and pony up the dough.

A real platform isn't looking to make money off startups looking for investment. A real platform is looking to match investors with entrepreneurs.

This is a glorified dating website where suckers pay to send messages and get clicks.

Hi Christoph,

This isn't the case at all. The costs are clearly explained on the rates page on our website.
1) There is a link to the rates page in the "Help" menu, which appears at the top of every page on our website.
2) There is a link to the rates page in the site footer, which also appears on every page of our website.
3) Our FAQ's page explains: What are the costs? Check out our "Rates" page to find out more.

And yes, we are a glorified dating website that matches investors with entrepreneurs - that's actually a very accurate description. Getting clicks and sending/receiving messages is obviously the first stage of the process, as is the case with all matching websites. I hope that clarifies things.

Best wishes,

Mike

I've asked for a refund for 4-5 weeks

I've asked for a refund for 4-5 weeks and they just go in circles. I first started getting suspicious when I was getting Linkedin messages from "Angels" on the site soliciting me for business. Most of the contacts that message me were outside the USA or solicitors offering consulting and once they messaged me I wouldn't hear back from them again. I paid for the most expensive package thinking that would help but still had to buy nudges (which doesn't work either)

I've now had to file a claim with my bank because every time I ask for a refund they say "its still early give it time give it time". As a early stage startup I DO NOT WANT TO WASTE THE LITTLE MONEY I HAVE ON SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T WORK! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS SITE!

Hi Francis,

You requested a refund 3 weeks into your listing after 28 investors had already shown interest in your pitch, so I'm afraid you didn't qualify for a refund in this case.

When we asked you if you'd had problems with any of the investors, the only information you provided was someone who contacted you on LinkedIn (not via our platform).

Your bank even refused your chargeback request, as the evidence that we provided them clearly showed that we had provided the service you paid for and that a refund wasn't warranted.

We have offered to reactivate your account and pitch, so we can continue to promote your investment opportunity and hopefully connect you with more investors, and are waiting to hear back from you on this.

Best wishes,

Mike

We didn't receive any ligitame interest

We didn't receive any interest that seemed to come from a ligitemate investor. When asking for our refund as part of the refund policy, the customer service team dragged the issue for month, made us explain every single interaction we've had on the platform and at the end said we don't quality. Waste of time and money.

Hi Gergana,

We issue refunds if entrepreneurs don't receive any interest or don't manage to engage with any investors. Since you received interest from 11 investors and exchanged messages with several of them, I'm afraid you didn't qualify for a refund in this case. In one of your emails, you said "I reached a point of conversation with two of them". In another email (after I'd sent a reminder email to one of the investors), you said "Your message worked - I saw that I received a message from her on the platform", so you clearly did manage to get a reasonable level of engagement with some of the investors.

Best wishes,

Mike

Bloomcatch - Successful Seed Fundraise

I recently decided to raise funds for my startup, Bloomcatch. We're a small startup based out of Washington D.C. and we help people connect with nature through our plant ID app.

I tried many, many different ways before stumbled across Angel Investment Network. I tried asking friends and family for direct connections to investors. I tried reaching out to others with direct connections to angel investors. I learned that this process was hard. After not hearing from many of my solicitations, I decided to use a couple of different platforms.

I was fortunate to have my entire package ready: financials, pitch deck, video so for me it was simply a matter of uploading the information. Angel Investment Network made that process really easy. After I completed the upload which only took about an hour My Pitch was Live.

And then I waited...and waited...and waited. After nothing happening for about a week I decided to start nudging people. AIN lets you nudge people whose interest and geographic preference aligns with your own. So I nudged...and nudged...and nudged.

Nothing happened. I emailed Mike who encouraged me to keep trying and be persistent and make refinements to my package to improve it. So, I did all that and then...something happened. Investors started becoming interested in my pitch. I was talking to real people who were interested in my little startup. So I talked and learned and continued to promote my company. I did this over and over and over until I completed my first deal.

It was amazing and exhilarating and nerve-wracking and stressful. But I'm done now and I can go back to work on building my company. I wrote this to illustrate that I am grateful to Angel Investment Network for giving my company the platform to connect to real people who believe in what I'm trying to do in this world and to also encourage entrepreneurs on this journey to try their best, be patient, and then work hard to make something happen.

Extremely grateful,
Ray Magee

Hi Ray,

Many thanks for your review and sharing your experience with us and other entrepreneurs. And many thanks for bearing with me and being persistent. It's obviously great to hear that your persistence paid off! I wish you and your business the best of luck and hope you'll come back to us for your next funding round (if you need one...).

Best wishes,

Mike

Angel Round - Great team and amazing work

I had the pleasure of working with Xav and the team to help support our 2nd Angel Round for Dropless. Since the word go Xav was very supportive and helped get the right message across to a strong set of Angels he know we would resonate with. Fast forward 8 weeks and we had closed the round (and in the middle of the corona pandemic). The network of Angels I had discussions with are all very savvy and many of them very experienced - no time wasting what so ever. Would highly recommend working with Angel Investment Network.

Significantly increase your chances of successful funding

We are a fundraising marketing communications company, having helped over 80 companies to run joint marketing/pr & fundraising campaigns. We use Angel Investment Network on every campaign, and it almost always proves to be an excellent source of investment leads. I can safely say 30% of our clients would never have funded if it wasn't for AIN.

It's a large and active community of investors, which you'll struggle to find the equal of anywhere else. Having such a large pool increases the likelihood of finding someone that's both liquid and interested in the idea. AIN significantly increases your chances of success - we can't live without it.

AIN funded business receives royal accolade

I’ve worked with Mike and his team at the angel investment network since 2010, having raised funds successfully for my last two ventures. The first company was capitalised successfully during the GFC, and the second was voted entrepreneur of the year by the British royals - selected from 25,000 companies worldwide. Ten years later I look forward to working with AIN again, on my next project.

Angel Investment Network is delivering…

Angel Investment Network is delivering exactly what they advertise. And the service is outstanding. Great communication too and I'm stunned at how fast I'm getting qualified investors messaging me. They know what makes a pitch work and investors interested. So glad I chose the executive package - well worth the money!

We are super impressed with the AIN…

We are super impressed with the AIN team, especially Ed and his team. As a new tech start up, raising capital is always the main focus to kick start the project. Without Ed and his team, we wouldn't have secured our funding, and close the round successfully. We cannot recommend AIN enough to businesses looking for investment.
