Behind Aerobet: Our Story and Our People

Independent analysis for a safer gambling experience.

🚀 How Aerobet Got Started

You won't find Aerobet's beginnings in some glossy corporate boardroom. Actually, the idea was sparked by a simple, shared irritation. Our founders, all of whom had spent time in either digital publishing or the regulated betting industry, noticed a huge recurring issue: far too many comparison platforms chased only the biggest bonuses, often pushing the true player experience, proper licensing checks, and, most importantly, responsible gambling protocols way into the background.

We created Aerobet as a genuine alternative—a resource that truly prizes clear communication, honest comparison of facts, and maintaining the integrity of licensed operators above all else. Our ultimate aim is quite simple: to give you, the player, unbiased, diligently-researched information. Why? So you can make truly sound decisions. We hold the conviction that real lasting value isn't found just in a huge sign-up offer, but in long-term clarity and safety.


🔍 What Makes Our Reviews Stand Out?

We're not like those big, impersonal, automated aggregators. Every single one of our reviews is the result of authentic human interaction, rigorous testing, and thoughtful critical assessment. We wade through all the fine print, which means you don't have to. Here are the most vital parts of how we work:


🧑‍💻 Meet the Core Team: A Blend of Global Views and Local Expertise

Our small, dedicated team is geographically distributed across three distinct countries. This gives us a great mix of deep industry knowledge combined with diverse regulatory perspectives. This international makeup ensures that our comparisons are not only locally relevant for Australian users but are also informed by the very best global practices.

1. Elias 'Eli' Vance – Chief Analyst & Co-Founder

Location: Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺

Legend: Eli is the foundational force driving Aerobet’s dedication to data accuracy. He started as a statistical risk analyst and spent close to ten years in Australia's financial services before deciding to apply that skill set to responsible gambling metrics. He maintains that every single review absolutely must successfully pass a strict "transparency test." His own personal goal? To expose misleading advertising, ensuring players see the actual risk—or value—behind the reported figures.

2. Zara Al-Mansour – Regulatory & Compliance Specialist

Location: Melbourne, Australia 🇦🇺

Legend: Zara is truly our regulatory safety net, bringing extensive experience in corporate law, specifically focused on digital compliance. She is meticulous, checking every detail of every listed operator's licensing, terms and conditions, and Know Your Customer (KYC) processes to ensure they meet tough legal benchmarks. Zara guarantees that Aerobet stays fully updated on changing laws, with a strong emphasis on Australian consumer protection rules. For her, regulatory oversight is the most essential shield for the consumer.

3. Liam O'Connell – User Experience (UX) Tester

Location: Perth, Australia 🇦🇺

Legend: Liam provides that critical on-the-ground perspective. He enjoys playing occasionally (always setting strict limits) and focuses his energy on rigorously testing site functionality, mobile performance, and the time it takes to withdraw money. He comprehensively documents the whole user journey, from initial registration right through to the final cash-out. Liam prioritises practical, real-world issues: Is the interface easy to use? How fast is customer support? He is the team’s firm voice arguing for honest, simple, and friction-free website design.

4. Gabriel 'Gabe' Dubois – Technical Auditor & Developer

Location: Vancouver, Canada 🇨🇦

Legend: Gabe is the team’s technical anchor. With a deep background in Computer Science, he zooms in on the underlying technology of gambling platforms, evaluating security practices, encryption strength, and platform stability. His Canadian background provides valuable insight into the fast-moving North American market. Gabe's role is to ensure that, regardless of how appealing the site looks, the technology behind it is completely secure, robust, and reliable.

5. Anna Steiner – International Standards Researcher

Location: Vienna, Austria 🇦🇹

Legend: Anna joined the team to contribute a vital European perspective on regulation and culture. Her core area of expertise involves breaking down how responsible gambling measures and advertising rules differ across various global markets. She keeps a close eye on leading international standards (like those in Austria and Germany) and pushes for their adoption elsewhere. Anna’s work ensures Aerobet's guidance on support and self-exclusion reflects the highest worldwide expectations.
