World-leading AI expertise

fused with engineering excellence

Our mission

To enhance professional advice with AI, making it more meaningful, more accessible and more human.

Our vision

A world where advisers can offer better advice by fusing their experience and knowledge with cutting-edge technology to help people reach their goals.

Who we are

We’re a passionate team of computer scientists, engineers, designers and creatives. We want to transform the advice industry by fusing AI with human interaction, a process we call Human+. Because we believe people want to speak to people when making important life decisions. That’s why we’re using AI to enhance advisers. Not replace them.

Our team

Where it began

In June 2018 Lexi Birch was introduced to Joseph Twigg and Aveni (formerly Hatch AI) was born. The mission they developed together was clear: to deploy cutting edge AI practices in industry to solve real problems.

Following extensive industry research they chose Financial Advice as their target market – an industry well known for its outdated processes, constant regulatory changes and underserved demand.

Since then the team has grown, we’ve joined the RBS NextPhase programme and Scottish Enterprise Growth Pipeline, won Scotland’s leading startup competition – Scottish Edge – and received recognition via the The Times Future of Fintech awards and Beauhurst’s Top 15 AI Startups. We are proud to be part of Scotland’s vibrant startup ecosystem and the journey is just beginning…

Join the team

At Aveni, we’re harnessing the power of science and technology to reimagine the most important aspect of financial advice: client interaction.

To achieve our mission, we’re looking for innovators, engineers and creatives to join us, share our vision, and fuel our progress.
