The Founder Behind LaulX

Backed by a founder, not a fund manager.

Mahir Laul

LaulX is led by Mahir Laul. Before turning 20, he built Velric, an AI-powered SaaS company replacing the traditional resume with a standardised proof-of-work benchmark. Built while studying at NYU. Now his full-time company.

He has gone from zero to traction with limited resources and high expectations. That is the only lens through which LaulX evaluates founders.

Who We Back

Tech founders at the earliest stage.

We look for founders who have found a genuine problem and have the conviction to go all the way. Sector-agnostic within tech, with a natural leaning toward SaaS, AI, and future-of-work.

A polished deck is optional. A clear problem, a defined market, and the hunger to build, that is what matters.

Real, specific problem

We invest in founders who have identified a genuine gap, not a theoretical one. Clarity of problem is the starting point.

Defined market

We look for founders who know exactly who they are building for and can articulate the size and shape of that market with confidence.

Conviction and execution

Ideas are everywhere. Execution is rare. We back founders who move fast, learn fast, and have the hunger to go all the way.

Tech-first orientation

Sector-agnostic within technology, with a natural interest in SaaS, AI, future-of-work, and vertical software.

What You Get

Capital, network, and operator support.

More than a cheque. A founder who has been exactly where you are.

01

Capital

Early-stage investment from a family-backed holding company with a long-term orientation. We invest to build, not to flip.

02

Global Network

Access to Laul Global's network across 20+ countries. Introductions to enterprise clients, institutional partners, and strategic buyers when the time is right.

03

Operator Support

Hands-on support from a team with deep operational experience across education, technology, and business building. Not just advice. Real execution partnership.

Connect

Building something real?

If you are building something real, reach out directly. No gatekeepers, no committee sign-offs. Mahir reviews every submission personally and responds when there is a fit.
