AUXILIARE
A platform where Filipino founders pitch by video and investors find them — matched by what each side is actually looking for.
- Filipino startup founders raising money, and investors looking for ventures
- Research & Development (R&D) Lead
- June 2024 – June 2026
The situation
Founders with a good business could not find investors, and investors could not find credible founders. Both sides were relying on who they happened to know. There was no shared, trustworthy place for the two to meet.
What we built
Founders record a short video pitch and set out what they are looking for. Investors browse, filter and watch. When both sides are a fit, they connect and message inside the platform. Identities are verified and content is reviewed, so investors are not sifting through noise. The three of us built it over two years, taking it from idea through to a working, tested platform.
The build that is public now is a front-end demo tour: the real screens and the flow through them, with no live database, accounts, or matching behind it.
Built June 2024 to June 2026 by the three of us below. Tested with five founders and five investors before the ratings above were recorded.

- 01Founders publish a video pitch instead of a cold email
- 02Investors browse ventures filtered by their own criteria
- 03Both sides message directly once they connect
- 04Identities are verified and posted content is moderated

A four-page public-facing abridgment of our University of Batangas capstone: system design, preliminary usability results, and the limits of what we tested.
Prepared from the team’s 2026 capstone with AI-assisted editorial condensation. Not peer reviewed or an IEEE publication. Ratings reflect five founders and five investors; they do not establish matching accuracy or investment outcomes.
