Your real odds
APX is one of Europe's more active pre-seed investors, but competition for Berlin-backed capital at this stage is high.
No acceptance rate is published, and being backed by Axel Springer and Porsche gives them the resources to do many deals, so their stated bar of 'most ambitious' is the real filter you need to clear.
What it takes
Send your pitch via email1 to 2 hrs
Undergo founder and concept reviewdays to week
Complete meetings and due diligence2 to 6 weeks
Worth knowing
APX often writes the very first check and positions itself as a long-term partner from day one, so if you have no lead investor yet, that framing works in your favor when you pitch them.
