SeedInvest

SeedInvest was acquired by StartEngine in 2022 and the original platform was integrated into StartEngine. Today those who want to invest in startups or raise funds through equity crowdfunding find this service through StartEngine, which has become one of the leading private investment marketplaces in the US.

SeedInvest was one of the leading equity crowdfunding platforms for startups in the USA, known for rigorous screening of companies admitted to fundraising and for opening startup investments to non-accredited investors following the JOBS Act amendment. In 2022 it was acquired by StartEngine Crowdfunding, which integrated SeedInvest's technology, community and brand into its own platform. Today the startup equity crowdfunding service previously offered by SeedInvest is available through StartEngine (startengine.com), which continues to operate as a private investment marketplace, allowing individuals to invest in early and growth stage startups. StartEngine is also the platform that acquired Vinovest for fine wine investments in 2026.

For accredited and non-accredited private investors wanting to invest in early-stage startups, and for startups seeking to raise funds through equity crowdfunding from a retail investor community.

The original SeedInvest platform was integrated into StartEngine in 2022. Investing through StartEngine is free for investors. Startups raising funds pay fees on completed raises. For updated service and fee information, visit startengine.com.
