Proprietary Intelligence

Two scores. Total conviction.

Athena applies two complementary scoring systems to every company and founder — one built on decades of human expertise, one on cutting-edge AI — to give you the most complete picture of any opportunity.

Proprietary Rules Engine
Structured expertise scoring

Built on 13 years of investment experience having analysed tens of thousands of companies across 20+ verticals and 30+ countries across 3 continents. Every rule is a crystallised investment conviction — transparent, auditable, and tuneable to your thesis.

Athena AI Score
Neural network intelligence

Powered by a proprietary Neural Network fine-tuned on the conclusions of thousands of pages of Venture Capital research from the last 10 years. The model decides itself which data points to use, how to weight them, and how they interact — no human bias in the loop.

Combined scoring for maximum signal

Athena can run both scoring engines simultaneously and combine their outputs into a single composite score — weighted by your preference. Use the rules engine for transparency and auditability, the AI Score for pattern recognition beyond human intuition, or blend both for the highest-confidence ranking.

One Workflow. 10+ Agents.

Each module runs dedicated AI agents — purpose-built for a stage of the investment process. Together they create an end-to-end autonomous flywheel from discovery to LP reporting.

Scoring

Agents that score every bet

Two scoring agents attack each opportunity from different angles — one running your fund's rules, one running deep AI pattern recognition — so nothing slips through on a gut call alone.

Rules Scoring Agent
Applies your fund's configurable criteria across Team, Market, Product, Traction, Moat and Thesis — fully transparent, auditable, investable
AI Scoring Agent
A proprietary neural network fine-tuned on 10 years of VC research finds patterns no human framework captures, then visualises them as spider graphs and speedometers
  • Both agents run in parallel and combine into a single composite score
  • Configurable dimension weights per sector and stage
  • Ranked shortlists and side-by-side comparison views
