Become a Shareholder in StartEngine

This is why we're raising capital: grow this team and capitalize on the market.

This diversified model means StartEngine has the opportunity to grow alongside its community: as more investors participate and more companies raise capital on the platform, our revenue base broadens.

50,000+ people already believe in what we're building

StartEngine has always been a platform built by the crowd, for the crowd. So when we decided to raise capital for ourselves, we turned to the same community we've spent nearly a decade serving.

More than 50,000 individuals have already invested over $100 million directly into StartEngine — not into companies on the platform, but into StartEngine itself. These include everyday investors who have watched us grow, used the platform firsthand, and made a deliberate choice to back the company behind it all.

That level of community ownership is rare. It means our shareholders are also our users, our advocates, and our most vocal supporters. They're not passive bystanders — they're invested in our success in every sense of the word.

Now we're opening the next chapter of that story to you.

The kicker? You can stack bonuses up to 20% total in this round.²

1. The companies which StartEngine Private invests in are not involved in or endorsing investments in StartEngine Private, and have not approved StartEngine Private LLC or its affiliates. When you invest through StartEngine Private, you are buying an interest in a separate Series of StartEngine Private LLC, not directly in the companies listed. References to specific offerings are abbreviated names used to identify the applicable Series of StartEngine Private LLC and are not the full legal names of those Series. The Series may hold shares directly or through a special-purpose vehicle (SPV). Your interests may differ from the companies' stock in both rights and value, and there may not be a one-to-one economic parity between the value of Series interests and the underlying shares. The Series also bears its own costs (such as transaction and administrative expenses), which may reduce investor returns. The initial offerings were made under Regulation D, Rule 506(c), through StartEngine Primary LLC (member FINRA/SIPC), and were available only to accredited investors. These investments are speculative, illiquid, and high risk, and you should be prepared to hold them indefinitely and to bear the risk of losing your entire investment. StartEngine and its affiliates do not provide financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. This update may include information from third-party or public sources that has not been independently verified and may be incomplete or inaccurate. Before investing, review the full offering documents on the offering pages and consult your advisors.
2. Investors in StartEngine can receive up to 20% total bonus shares based on certain criteria. Perks Terms & Conditions: 10% if you reserved shares during the latest Test the Waters phase; 10% if you are a member of the Venture Club (members get 10% on all investments in eligible offerings for a year for an annual fee of $275, purchasable at checkout); 5% if you invest between $3,000 and $4,999.99; 10% if you invest between $5,000 and $24,999.99; 20% if you invest $25,000 or more. Bonus shares in this offering are stackable, up to a maximum of 20%. Any investor who falls into two or all three categories will receive 20% bonus shares. Bonus shares may not immediately appear on your investor dashboard, but will be issued prior to the offering closing. To receive perks, one must submit a single investment that meets the minimum perk requirement. If you are investing via a self-directed IRA, you cannot receive additional perks beyond bonus shares due to tax laws.
3. StartEngine's user base was determined by the number of unique email addresses in the company's database as of 04-03-2025. Vinovest's user base was also determined by the number of unique email addresses in its database. One individual may have more than one email address. In May 2023, StartEngine acquired assets of SeedInvest, including email lists for SeedInvest's users, investors and founders. Amount invested includes $470M in funds raised previously through offerings conducted on www.seedinvest.com outside of the StartEngine platform.
4. Based on our FY 2025 Form 10-K. This revenue growth has been driven by StartEngine Private, a new product line that offers funds in late-stage companies. This product line contributed $86,603,559 of the $109,580,580 in revenue during FY 2025. To understand the impact on margins, see financials. Past performance may not be indicative of future performance.
5. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) calculated in accordance with GAAP adjusted to exclude interest expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation. We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management team to evaluate operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions. Non-GAAP information should be considered supplemental in nature and is not a substitute for related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA is presented in our FY 2025 Form 10-K.
