Valerian Funds' vision is to be the world's preferred source of growth capital for online businesses accessible at the click of a button. Simple, Fast and Non-Dilutive From startup founders to startup founders, we have been there – we know how hard it is to raise capital. Your business needs to tick a particular box with a VC or have a minimum track record for a bank manager. Ultimately, a successful fund raise is less a testament to the quality of your business and more a consequence of being at the right place at the right time – not a very comforting thought. The founding team at Valerian set out to create a product that would eliminate the serendipitous element of fund raising and instead root the investment decision in hard data – eliminating the self-selecting criteria of who you know and instead focusing solely on performance. The team at Valerian brings in a wealth of unique specific expertise that aims to provide you with the best available, most flexible and ultimately cheapest cost of capital available for your growth.

We believe that conversations and negotiations – especially in a business-to-business context – are not ideal. Our skewed motivations and insufficient knowledge about the situation lead to suboptimal proposals: we say things that do not matter and leave some essentials unsaid. We waste everyone's time discussing with the wrong people, and we make deals that are actually bad for us. We at Stealth Black believe that a computer that sees things just as they really are and knows everything about everything can make a difference here. We are building the guardian angel that sits on your shoulder, guides you forward, and watches your back.

We made Vev for the next generation of creatives. From our own experiences as developers, designers, digital producers, content writers, and so much more, we were constantly faced with the brick wall that is web production.

We built Vev with this simple principle: Take what's in your imagination and put it on the page. We are excited to bring creative power back to teams and we can't wait to check out what you all create.
