About Us

We are reinventing consumer credit - starting with the $1T credit card market. We massively reduce the cost of capital by using technology to easily tap into people’s assets. Our first product is the world's lowest APR credit card – backed by home equity. Using many patented technologies, we sped up a process that usually takes 4-6 weeks and thousands of dollars down to as fast as 15 minutes and $0 to get.

If you’re a missionary that gets excited to work on huge problems with wicked smart people to have a massive impact - then Aven would love to get to know you.

Who are we?

We are a well-capitalized (over $275MM in equity funding) team of technology (Square, Microsoft, Facebook) and finance (Discover, CapitalOne, and Goldman) executives with top-tier investors -- Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, Max Levchin, NYCA, Sequoia, SciFi VC, Caffeinated Capital, etc. In the next decade, we believe we will reduce the cost of consumer credit in the world by a half.

Our team includes people who have built:

  • Financial products (Square/CashApp, the earliest CapitalOne credit cards)

  • Consumer products (Internet.org, Xbox)

  • Technology infrastructure (Visual Studio, Windows & Azure, helped design the C++ & C# languages)

  • Mathematics & science infrastructure (computational research at NASA’s JPL).

We are missionaries that like to work hard on important problems - and build products that become an infrastructure for society. We believe that using technology to lower the cost of capital for consumers is one of these problems - and if we can do it, it could have an infinite impact on people’s lives.
