Antlos is an online platform that connects tourists and travelers with skippers who own and operate private marine vessels (yachts, smaller boats, etc.). Using Antlos, tourists can find boat captains who will provide access to their vessel while also sailing the ship to an agreed upon destination or destinations (typically in and around the Mediterranean Sea and Caribbean Sea). Some skippers offer all-inclusive trips with amenities like lodging and food. The company was founded in Venice, Italy in 2014 as part of the business incubator, H-FARM Ventures.
Antlos was founded in 2014 by childhood friends Michelangelo Ravagnan and Marco Signori along with Nicola Peduzzi. Ravagnan is a former yacht captain and skipper and serves as the company's CEO. Signori is the product manager and CPO while Peduzzi serves as the CTO. The company was born in H-CAMP, a business accelerator that forms a component of the larger H-FARM Ventures incubator. Antlos spent four months in the accelerator program, eventually "graduating" in January 2015. In addition to the investment of H-FARM Ventures, Antlos also received funding from Club Italia Investmenti 2, an individual angel investor from H-FARM, and Incos Invest.
Antlos launched their English language website in May 2015 and offered all-inclusive trips to Mediterranean countries like Spain, Greece, Italy, and Croatia. By August 2015, the company offered around 160 unique voyages for users to purchase. In May 2015, Antlos had accrued €500,000 in investment funding and had signed 150 professional skippers under contract. They have added destinations in locations like Turkey, Malta, Slovenia, and more.
