• Have a pitch deck ready as a PDF, up to 5MB.
• Add a link to a demo video of your product.
• A video pitch of up to 3 minutes is optional. The form marks it as good to have.
• The form asks what stage your startup is at.

How selection works

• If the team is convinced, it sends you a link to a detail form.
• The investment advisory board evaluates the detail form.

Real Time Angel Fund, also called RTAF, is a SEBI-registered angel fund. It invests in startups raising a seed to pre-Series A round and runs a community of angel investors who co-invest alongside it. Its contact page gives an office in Jaipur, Rajasthan.

How the fund invests

The fund invests in a startup's seed to pre-Series A round and sits on the company's cap table as an investor. Founders raise that round from angel investors, with the fund among them. The fund's pages do not describe any fee for founders.

Who can apply

The fund takes applications from founders and co-founders of startups raising a seed to pre-Series A round. The application form is for founders and co-founders only. Angel investors who want to co-invest are a separate audience, served by the fund's angel community. The pages do not state a geography, sector or revenue cut-off.

Programmes

The fund's main programme is its seed investment route, described below. The angel community is a separate offer for investors, not a programme for startups.

Scale

The fund's own site counts more than 800 angel investors in its community. That figure is self-reported. Its news page reports that the fund led a funding round in MyMandi, a company in its portfolio.

Who runs it

The team page lists Dr. Vibhuti Aggarwal and Amit Singal as General Partners, Manish Aggarwal as Managing Partner, and Pranay Mathur as Founding Partner.

Locations

The contact page gives an office in Jaipur, Rajasthan. It also gives a registered address in Gurugram, Haryana, which is a different place.
