About Martin Schoeller

Background

Martin Schoeller's LinkedIn profile lists LVMH as his current experience, École polytechnique as his education, and Paris as his location. Its summary describes a senior executive with a record of leading technology and data ventures.

The name is shared by other public figures, including a portrait photographer and a Munich family entrepreneur who leads the Schoeller Group. The sources found do not link either of them to the Zeit AI round, and this page does not attribute their work to this investor. Founders should confirm his background directly.

Angel investing track record

The one angel investment confirmed in public sources is Zeit AI's seed round in September 2026. Tech.eu, Startbase and other outlets name him among the business angels in that round. The other angels named were Christian Lindner, Mario Götze, Charlie Songhurst and Helsing CTO Robert Fink.

We found no public list of earlier angel investments, exits or fund commitments, so none are listed here.

AI investments

Zeit AI is a Munich-based startup founded in 2024 by Palantir alumni Leopold von Waldthausen and Marvin Bornstein. Its product, ZeitMind, is an AI agent that connects business systems such as ERP and CRM, cleans and structures the data, and builds analytics-ready applications for mid-sized companies.

The seed round was reported at EUR 5.0M (about $5.8M on the Lounge deals desk). Other participants include Y Combinator, the Oxford Seed Fund, the Sequoia Capital Scout Fund, ACE Ventures and Hasso Plattner VC. The company said it would use the funds to grow its sales and engineering teams. His individual share of the round was not disclosed.

Investment focus

The only confirmed data point is a seed-stage investment in an enterprise AI and data infrastructure company in Germany. That is too little to describe a general thesis. He has made no public statements we could find about what he looks for in founders, and his check size is not public.
