FAQ

Questions about YC investing?

What does investing in YC startups mean?

Through Akka, you invest in a diversified selection of startups accepted into Y Combinator — the world's most selective incubator. We source the deals, negotiate VC-level terms, and handle everything. You choose which startups to back, starting from just €300.

Isn't this risky?

Yes, startup investing carries real risks including total loss and illiquidity. That's why diversification is key — invest smaller amounts across multiple startups to spread risk. Never invest money you might need short-term. Our VC-level protections (anti-dilution, liquidation preference) also reduce your downside compared to investing alone.

Is Akka affiliated with Y Combinator?

Akka gives its members access to startups from Y Combinator batches through its network of partners deeply embedded in the YC ecosystem. This is the first time this type of access is available to investors in Europe through a single platform.

How much time does it take?

You click. We handle the rest. Each deal comes with our full investment memo, video analysis, and key takeaways. You can go from discovery to investment in minutes, not hours. We manage the portfolio, track performance, and keep you updated.

How much do I need to start?

From €300 per deal. Akka offers multiple membership tiers from Starter to Business Angel. You'll find the right plan for you after completing your application.
