In late 2025 the only other route into SpaceX was an employee badge. He took a piece of the block we held, in the same round and at the same price as the institutions in it. SpaceX listed on Nasdaq on June 12, 2026 and closed its first day near a $2.1 trillion market value. The exception, not the rule.

She has not touched it once since the day she wired.

She came in on the February 2026 round at a $380 billion valuation. In June 2026 the next round priced Anthropic at $965 billion. That is a paper mark set by a later round, not money paid to anyone. Still private, still illiquid, nothing realized until an exit.

Jeff Bezos’s new AI company raised $12 billion at a $41 billion valuation in June 2026, while OpenAI and Anthropic were already valued near $900 billion. Same terms, same valuation, as the banks in the round. We buy the block; you take a piece of ours.

The entry points

Where we got in.

No ticker. A private company is repriced only when it raises, so here is the valuation at each round and the point our investors bought in.

The case for private

Where the gains actually happen.

Most of a company’s growth now happens while it is still private. By the time the public can buy, the growth has slowed and the early investors are selling into it.

The best investments were never on the public market. Through us, they can be available to you.

In their words

What our investors say

Eleven years accredited, and not once was I shown a private round. First consultation, I was reading the memo on a company I had only seen in the news.

DMD. M.Accredited investor, Illinois · investor since 2022

I assumed the door started at a million dollars. Twenty-five thousand put me in the same round, at the same price, as the institution beside me.

RKR. K.Retired engineer, Arizona · investor since 2023

Fifteen minutes and no pitch. They showed me what they had room in, what they paid for it, and what I would be signing. Nobody chased me.

SAS. A.Business owner, Florida · investor since 2021

What I did not expect is how quiet it is. No ticker to watch. An update when the company raises, and otherwise you let it sit.

JPJ. P.Accredited investor, New York · investor since 2020

Questions

Common questions

Anything else, ask on the call.

What exactly do you do?

25 years in the private market, $140M under management, 1,200 investors. We take institutional allocations in companies such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe and Databricks and split them into $25,000 pieces: same round, same price, same terms as our own capital.

How does this work?

A fifteen-minute consultation verifies your accreditation and walks you through the memo on what we have room in. If you proceed, you e-sign, wire, and hold a piece of the block we took.

Why hasn’t my advisor shown me this?

Because the plumbing does not reach them. Late-stage rounds go in seven-figure blocks to funds and family offices. Unless a firm splits its own position, there is nothing at $25,000.

Why is it limited to a few investors a month?

A block is a fixed size, so the number of $25,000 pieces in it is finite. And every investor is walked through the memo personally and verified properly, which we cannot do at volume.

What are realistic expectations?

We do not quote projected returns. 9 out of 10 of the companies we have ever invested in have gone public, and positions are typically positioned to list within 18 to 36 months of our entry. That window is based on where a company sits, not a date anyone can promise.

How do I get my money out?

You don’t, until the company lists or is acquired. These positions do not trade. This is illiquid capital and should never be money you need in the next four years.

Is an IPO guaranteed?

No. No company is obligated to list, and a position can lose value or fail entirely. What we offer is 25 years of judgment about which companies are positioned to list, and a record you can check.

Am I actually eligible?

If you’re accredited, yes. Because this offer is made publicly, the law requires proper verification: brokerage statements, a CPA or attorney letter, or a third-party service. Most investors clear it in a day.

What does it cost?

The minimum position is $25,000. The fee structure is set out in the subscription documents and walked through, in writing, before you commit.

Which companies do you have room in right now?

That changes, which is why it lives on the consultation. The memo covers each open name: what it does, the round, and the terms.

Fifteen minutes

The next round is already on the pad.
