Opperly Capital partners with European tech founders to build a platform of AI- and data-driven product companies. We focus on businesses shaping the next wave of intelligent software — from LLM integrations and smart process automation to data foundation and governance platforms.
We acquire, integrate, and scale these companies into a unified group that re-rates as it grows. Founders don’t just exit — they stay, build, and share in the long-term upside alongside us.
Most jobs still carry too much manual, repetitive, soul-draining work — the same email, the same form, the same compliance check, week after week. We invest in software that absorbs that work into machines, so the people doing it spend their time on the dynamic, creative, decision-making parts of the job instead. These are the three rules we hold ourselves to.
We invest only where technology takes real, recurring drudgery off a human’s desk — SaaS platforms, AI and data products, private-LLM deployments, smart process automation, governance tooling. Not retail. Not real estate. Not generalist roll-ups.
If a tool just makes the boring work faster, it isn’t enough.We grow EBIT by acquiring complementary businesses into one platform. Cost-cutting is not the lever; integration, cross-sell, and shared engineering are. The whole re-rates at a higher multiple as it scales.
Target: 5 acquisitions averaging €1.5M EBIT inside 5 years.Each deal blends cash and Opperly Capital shares — the exact mix is shaped together with the founder around what fits the business. The point is the same either way: founders stay invested through the multiple expansion instead of cashing out and watching from the sidelines.
Same share class as the founding team. No structural games.Every acquisition runs the same five-step process. Discipline is what makes a buy-and-build platform compound — not opportunistic deal-making.

Cash + share-swap structure signed. SPA, due diligence, share transfer to Opperly Capital BV.
60-day founder-led handoff, then operator-led integration. Cross-sell and shared engineering kick in.
Founders own the first 60 days post-close. After day 61, an Opperly operator takes the seat — freeing the founder to focus on growth, product, or the next thing. No drift, no founder fatigue.
Phase 1 of Opperly Capital combines a services anchor with a software platform. Both feed each other — the services arm builds the platform’s products at cost; the platform creates predictable, productized revenue back into the holding.

The Opperly partnership combines deal-making with hands-on tech operating experience. We’ve sat in the founder seat, not just on a cap-table — and we believe the people on both sides of a transaction matter more than the transaction itself.

If you’re considering selling part or all of your business, here’s the honest version of what fits the platform and what doesn’t. We’d rather have a clear no in 30 minutes than a polite maybe over six months.
