You’ve probably used at least one of the new AI tools by now.
For many, their first thought after using AI was, “This is going to change the world.”
If you’re an investor, your second thought was probably, “So how do I invest in this company?” But since many of the most valuable AI companies are still private, the answer was simple: you can’t—unless you’re somehow invested in the right venture capital fund.
Statistically speaking, you probably aren’t invested in the right venture capital fund. For decades, venture capital has been one of the few remaining rooms in finance where retail investors are largely not invited.
And it’s a billion-dollar shame. Venture capital is where the early bets on future giants were placed — long before IPO headlines turned them into household names. But most of you have been left on the outside looking in, waiting impatiently for an IPO that could take decades to happen.
Fundrise finally disrupted that dynamic by launching a venture capital product a few years ago with two goals:
1. Build a portfolio of the most valuable private tech companies in the world. 2. Make it available to as many people as possible.
And the rest is history.
Fundrise isn’t a newcomer to private markets. The company has been operating for over a decade and manages billions of dollars on behalf of hundreds of thousands of clients. Their venture capital offering was built specifically for individual investors, with low minimums, diversification, and a long-term focus on private technology companies that often remain private for years before going public.
For investors who want pre-IPO exposure to transformative technologies like AI, Fundrise offers a way to get in earlier without needing institutional-level wealth.
