## About

Based in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, and founded in 2020, by Sally Krebs (CEO), Aurelius Pty Ltd, d/b/a Arli, operates as an online platform, that offers coaching and support to people, suffering from various addictions, including that of alcohol, drugs, gambling, and others. In April 2021, the company raised AUD 2.5 million in a seed funding round led by Folklore Ventures and venture capitalists such as Antler, and AirTree Ventures, etc.

The company's mission is to create a digital ecosystem of support for people who are struggling with addiction, and it does so by providing them with an online tool—a mobile application—that gives free coaching and support throughout their addiction recovery journey. The platform is based on a coaching model, that connects users with trainers, who experienced, and recovered from similar kinds of addictions. The app allows the user to choose a suitable one-on-one coaching service and schedule and reserve a time slot with the coach, with the option of remaining anonymous. Additionally, the platform offers various resources such as audio lessons, expert advice, and recovery stories, to users, which can be accessed at their convenience, and it also connects with support groups that share similar interests, experiences, and goals, thereby helping them in overcoming addictions.

The firm plans to deploy its funds to expand into the United States, where it intends to cooperate with rehabilitation centres. The company also plans to broaden its coaching programs to reach a more focused clientele.
