AVRA AI on the Founders Arena stage at EnvolveXL

On 16 June 2026, our AI creative platform, AVRA AI, pitched at Founders Arena 2026, the third EnvolveXL Investors' Day, at the Technopolis of the City of Athens. This is the pitch we gave.

AVRA AI โ€” the opening of our Founders Arena pitch.

AVRA AI was selected as one of 16 startups in the EnvolveXL acceleration program, run by Envolve Entrepreneurship, the non-profit that has backed Greek founders since 2012. We presented in the Creative Industry and Mediatech track, in the "Miltiades Evert" Amphitheater, in front of a full house.

The problem

Every small brand is now expected to show up everywhere, in ads, social, video and email, with the polish of a company that has a full creative department behind it. Most do not have one. They stitch together ten different tools, or pay for agencies they cannot really afford, and still fall behind the brands with bigger teams and bigger budgets.

The gap AVRA closes: small brands are expected to create like they have a full team.
Why small brands cannot keep up today.

What AVRA AI does

AVRA AI gives a small brand the output of a full creative team, in one platform. Instead of paying for and switching between ten separate tools, a brand generates its image, video, voice and more from a single place. We do not replace people; we replace the stack of tools they are drowning in, so a small team can create at the scale of a much larger one.

We don't replace people. We replace 10 tools.
The positioning: one platform in place of ten tools.

The market

AI creative is moving from novelty to default across marketing, and the opportunity is large and growing fast. We laid out where AVRA fits and why the timing is right.

The room: investors and VCs

We pitched in front of an evaluation panel and audience of leading Greek and international investors and venture funds. The investor lineup present at Founders Arena included Venture Friends, Metavallon VC, NBG Business Seeds, Skybound VC, Investing for Purpose, the Sporos Platform, Theti Club, HEBAN and the Helidoni Group, alongside active angel investors.

The evening was opened by speakers including Christos Dimas, Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Alexandros Nousia, Managing Director of Envolve Entrepreneurship, and Rosanna Mortoglou, CEO of Libra Philanthropies.

We came off the stage with strong interest from investors in the room, and we are continuing those conversations now.

Why this matters for GEO AI

AVRA AI is one of our own products, and building it is how we stay sharp on the same AI systems we deploy for clients. The engineering that puts a product like AVRA on an investor stage is the same engineering we bring to the automation we build for the businesses we work with.
