Every Civilizational Grift Required an Exodus from Accountability

Fire. Agriculture. Electricity. Crypto. Now: investing in robots that don't work yet. We are Aexodus, and we're very serious about this.

Our Thesis

People stopped having kids. Workers don't want to work. The only logical solution? Give hundreds of millions of dollars to robotics startups that have collectively shipped… press releases.

Aexodus backs the teams building the backbone of the post-revenue world. We believe physical AI will create the largest wealth transfer in human history — from your bank account to ours.

"We pivoted from crypto to robotics because the grift-to-legitimacy pipeline has never been shorter." — Internal memo, probably

Portfolio

Companies we've invested in, ranked by how close they are to shipping a product (spoiler: not very)

Humanoid Robots

Apptronik

Building humanoid robots that will definitely replace warehouse workers any day now. Current status: walking slowly at trade shows.

Humanoid Robots

Agility Robotics

Their robot Digit can sort of walk and sort of carry boxes. Two "sort ofs" make a whole, right? That's how VC math works.

AI Companions

Persona AI

AI companions for the lonely. Nothing says "robotics fund" like investing in chatbots with anime avatars.

Nuclear Energy

Positron

Nuclear-powered something. Because when your robot fund runs out of robots, you pivot to nuclear. What could go wrong?

Space Modules

Valar Atomics

"Flat-packed space modules." We're not making this up. It's like IKEA for space, but without the Allen wrench or any customers.

AI Research

Tensorfield

AI infrastructure for robotics. Or as we call it, "the one that makes the pitch deck look more technical."

Drones

Vantage Robotics

Drones! Remember when drones were the future? They were the robots before robots were the robots. Nostalgia investing.

Autonomy

Rendezvous Robotics

Named like a French dating app, operates like a French worker on strike — sporadically and with great philosophical conviction.

Elon Tax Write-Off

xAI

Wait, xAI? In a robotics portfolio? That's literally just Elon's chatbot company. But hey, any fund looks better with "xAI" on the slide.

???

Feather

We genuinely don't know what this one does. Neither do they, probably. But the name sounds nice and the logo was clean.

The Team

👨‍💼

Oliver Gale

Founding Partner

Crypto guy who woke up one morning and decided robots were the move. Previously helped create a blockchain. Now creates PowerPoints about humanoid labor. The pivot is giving "my NFT collection went to zero."

👩‍🚀

Chjango

Founding Partner

"Ex-NASA JPL" is doing some extremely heavy lifting here. "Acquired funding to ship rovers to Mars" = was a contractor who helped write a grant proposal. Also: Cosmos blockchain. Because of course.

⚖️

James Gale

General Counsel

Oxford-educated barrister, Bank of England alumnus. Because every seed-stage robot fund absolutely needs a Supreme Court–caliber litigator. Definitely not just the other Gale's relative. Definitely.

Advisory Board

Prestigious names who let us put them on the website in exchange for equity they'll never vest

🤖

Gregory Dudek

McGill Robotics Professor

Actual roboticist. Lends the operation a thin veneer of academic credibility. Probably regrets it.

⚛️

George Sterling

Google Quantum AI

Quantum AI advisor to a robotics fund. Because when you can't explain your thesis classically, go quantum.

🚗

Ryan Eustice

Toyota Research Institute

Toyota's self-driving car guy advising a humanoid robot fund. Close enough, right? They both have wheels. Wait.
