We’re the Robinhood for pre-IPO startups. Everyone can angel invest $100 in a Community Round. On May 16, 2016, it became legal for everyday people to invest as little as $100 in startups and small businesses. Since then, we’ve helped 1,860 founders raise almost $500M from their community - for flying cars, coffee shops, and everything in between. We’re a Public Benefit Corporation with a mission to revitalize capitalism and keep the American dream alive. GDP growth is slowing. Wealth inequality is increasing. Entrepreneurship is dying across America; falling from 10.6% to 3.6% among those under 30 since 1989. We’re reversing these trends by funding more deserving businesses across all of America, not solely tech startups in Silicon Valley. Want to help? Join us! We’re a team of founder types: enjoy autonomy, responsibility, the opportunity to learn, and no red tape. Just make it happen.

World Tree Investments: Eco-timber for the conscious investor. Do you love trees? Do you love farmers? Are you looking for an investment that can impact climate change? World Tree is a group of investors, business people, farmers and tree-huggers who are fighting climate change and making money through planting trees. Our program is based on the Empress Splendor Tree. Empress Splendor trees are the fastest growing hardwood trees in the world. Within just 10 years, they grow into mature trees that can be harvested and sold for lumber. We are planting trees with our network of farmers in North and Central America for the purposes of timber production and carbon sequestration. When the trees mature, they are harvested for the lumber and we share the profits with our farmers and investors.
