Angel Investment Network went the extra mile
A.I.N. gave me extra features and help, but it still wasn't enough to get me enough investors to build a small factory. It seems investors are only interested in online businesses because of the damn pandemic.

Great way to connect with investors!
Great and really simply to use platform. We found a few of our current investors through the network which is great. It's a great way to connect with possible angels that you might not have the chance to connect with otherwise. Highly recommend it if you're looking to raise.

I'm very optimistic about using this…
I'm very optimistic about using this company due to the reviews, however, that's is not the only reason.
As a person who has worked on his business from ground zero for 5 years and just now ready to start it; I'm afraid that with NO experience in pitching ideas (which could really get some eyes turning) I would be wasting my money. Like others on here, our ideas could actually be really good and legit future billion dollar companies, but never get anywhere because the pitch that we are writing without help. I'm torn between 3 companies to look for investors. Help please?

Very positive experience
Have had a very positive experience working with this group from an entrepreneur side of things. Provided us with tangible opportunities and connections and all communication was well handled. We worked mostly with Sam who was always very helpful
Good platform maybe not quite like…
SmartMoneyMatch might be better, but a good platform in my view
Excellent customer service
Full disclosure, I have not gotten an investor from this and the review is Not About That.
Angel Investment Network itself is very helpful and responsive. I had a rather strong complaint about loan agents on the site and it was addressed promptly. I did not ask for or expect any recompense - my time was done, I had had some mild interest - but they wanted to make sure I had a good experience, so re-wrote my pitch and put it back up with extras! In my opinion, that's really above and beyond the call of duty. My original review was 2 stars because I felt really put off by the loan agents, but I felt the need to change it after they really went the extra mile when they absolutely didn't have to. I had already paid my money and had my time and they went all out anyway. Amazing.

Fake Investors: Suck
I am writing this again, They try to remove my comments, before, let me all show you all the payments I have made.
This Place Suck! Been here more than 6 months, tried everything, and paid all my money. All I get in return was a scammer and fake investors. this place is horribly legitimate scammer. Con-Investment-Network.
I sent all my documents and business plan to my investors and the next day they suspended my investor's account. I have spent more than £1700. All I have in return was a suspended investor. I don't normally waste my time giving reviews about any services but this time, I have to because I don't anyone to face what I have been through. So I am done wasting my time and money here. Good Luck to you guys.
Great experience with AIN
Thoroughly good experience with the team at AIN, helping us onboard 4 new investors who contributed to c. 30% of our original target. Would certainly recommend
Would highly recommend
Would highly recommend. Extremely competent team.

Seems like all negative reviews are…
Seems like all negative reviews are from entrepreneurs/business owners that didn't get funding and then expect a refund... That is not how it work.
As an investor, been around at AIN since 2012 I've did a few investments. I've made about 5 investments of $5-50k each just this past year.
The problem for investors is that most pitches are flawed. Either with little information, a bad pitch in general, bad terms for the investors and the classic: people believe their start up with 0 revenue deserves a $5-10m+ valuation because their "idea" is good. Silicone Valley isn't the normal standard, so don't believe you're there yet.
I scrolls through the site for opportunities once a month or more and it's about 5-10% of pitches that gets my attention and out of them, only a few have everything right and even then only a few of the few are enough interesting to actually invest in.
AIN have flaws, yes, and I would love to 1improve their website to become more like other platforms were the whole process is done and can be tracked directly from the dashboard.
But to give negative reviews because you did not get funding to your (probably over valued) startup is just pathetic.

Perfect (minus one functionality)
If only the app would send back to last Angel looked at, it could then be classified as perfect :) Came back for more which says it all.
HORRIBLE Service - Blatantly lied
HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SCAM. I told them I was not getting anything but spam. When they "fixed" my pitch they also said I could receive a refund if I was not happy. 2 weeks went by and nothing. Sure people downloaded my stuff but never responded. When I said I wanted my refund, I was advised "oh but you got interest" and then they would not respond to my emails. JUST TERRIBLE would not recommend.
His response below is a LIE. Wow this is amazing. He is following my reviews and not telling the truth. Yes, they did respond to my emails but only to argue with me and when given proof that he offered the refund he continues to argue with me!
DO NOT USE!!

Very interesting and tempting
Very interesting and tempting, to launch a pitch on it.
As for the results, i don`t know yet.
I just created my profile, and will launch it soon.
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.
