The Australia Founder Institute, the local chapter of the world's largest pre-seed startup accelerator, is proud to announce the newest Alumni from the Australia Spring 2025 program.
After meticulous selection process and intense four months of aggressive business-building sprints, constant evaluation, and feedback from investors and mentors, just 8 companies were able to make it through.
Each of these Founders have demonstrated a high level of perseverance and creativity, and their businesses have been thoroughly vetted and supported by a panel of Australia's top startup experts and investors.
And now, without further ado, we present the Alumni of the Australia program:
- Chattrly - An AI Patient Intelligence Platform that generates real-time, cited insights from electronic health records — including lab trends, focused summaries, and complete patient history overviews — helping clinicians act faster and safer.
- Net Advantage Business Solutions - Building Delivery Foundry an online tool that helps companies measure and deal with waste so teams get to spend more time doing the valuable work.
- Dolanto Pty LTD - Developing a software that helps executives and boards in infrastructure sectors—such as road, rail, airports, universities, and correctional facilities—instantly assess compliance with contracts, regulations, and standards, and understand their exposure with a single click.
- Eden & Esther - Creating a network of inspiring, underutilized spaces for family-friendly (co-work and co-care), solving parental burnout by giving parents a way to work productively while their children thrive nearby in a supportive community.
- Economics for Kids - Creating engaging books, games, and workshops that teach children essential economic and financial knowledge, empowering the next generation to make informed, ethical, and confident decisions about money and resources.
- EngageNow - Providing a business-to-business marketplace for companies to get matched with the right professional service using AI.

The Australia Spring 2025 program would not have been possible without help, because it truly takes a city to raise a startup.
