About
Based in New York, US, and founded in 2021 by Michael Haddix Jr (CEO), ELV8 Inc. aka Scout operates as a financial service company that offers investing easy with a personalized portfolio connected to the user’s interest. In September 2022, Scout raised USD 2. 6 million in seed funding led by Chingona Ventures, with participation from Broadhaven Capital Partners, Gaingels Syndicate, Bertelsmann Digital Media Investments, Reach Capital, OneTeam Partners, LLC, OnDeck, Hustle Fund, Alive VC and individual investors also participated in the round.
Scout builds a personalized portfolio tailored to users' investing goals by selecting from curated themes aligned with their interests. A team of investment professionals actively monitors the company's portfolio, which provides more protection than a parent's financial advisor. The company plans to use the September 2022 funding to accelerate growth, expand operations and its business reach.
