Overview
Private companies are staying private longer, gaining most of their value before they go public. From 2016, Dizraptor’s portfolio companies have grown more than 135%, as compared to the S&P 500’s 100% rise. Late-stage investments don’t only have the potential to offer higher returns than public stocks, they’re also lower risk than early-stage ventures.
With Dizraptor, regular people can invest in companies before they go public, which used to only be available to major investors with at least $10 million. Investors can also get in on disruptive companies, like SpaceX, that operate in new markets and create tech that changes our lives for better.

Dizraptor Pros & Cons
The Good
Become an early investor in late-stage startups, which are 1-3 years away from going public and offer stronger likelihood of a return.
You don’t need to have millions to invest in startups: invest from $1,000.
Straightforward mobile-first user experience which takes after popular apps like Robinhood.
SPVs are taxed as partnerships, making this a favorable tax investment since it will generally not be subject to federal income tax.
The Not-So-Good
Dizraptor marks up the valuation of shares from recent rounds in most startups, an indirect sourcing fee.
Fees are much higher than traditional investments, 5% on management and 10% of net profit.
You will be an indirect owner of your chosen startup’s shares through an SPV, meaning that you might have less control over how or when they are sold.
There is no secondary market, meaning that you have to hold your investment until the company has been public for 6 months.

How it Works
Here’s how Dizraptor helps regular investors get in on pre-IPO and middle stage investments:
Here’s how Dizraptor helps regular investors get in on pre-IPO and middle stage investments:
1
Dizraptor sources shares in top private companies
Dizraptor’s analysts select the world’s top private companies, primarily at the pre-IPO stage.
2
Dizraptor forms a company to hold the shares
Dizraptor forms a company called a special purpose vehicle (SPV), which will hold the shares of said private company.
3
Dizraptor offers shares to investors
Dizraptor publishes an investment offering in the app, providing investors with information about the company, the terms and structure of the deal, and any potential risks. Accredited investors can purchase shares in the Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) and become indirect shareholders in the company of their choice.
4
Dizraptor sells the shares after the company goes public
You can monitor the value of your investment portfolio in the Dizraptor app. And assuming your investment goes public, Dizraptor will choose a time to sell them for you—at least 6 months after the company goes public.

How You
Make Money
You make money on your investment when your portfolio company exits—that means it needs to go public or be acquired. Most late stage companies end up doing the former. Dizraptor says that it plans to hold private companies for between 1 to 3 years before they go public.
Primary Sale
Your portfolio company exits (goes public or gets bought)
How Dizraptor
Makes Money
Dizraptor earns commissions on the investments they offer, which varies on a case by case basis. You can find the exact values in the details of each offering. Dizraptor’s fees on the SpaceX offering are as follows:
- 5% management fee, paid once for 10 years
- 20% of net profits, charged once the investment round is closed.

How You’re Taxed
Startup investments are subject to capital gains tax, with the exact rate depending on the taxpayer's country of residence, personal income tax bracket and whether or not the investment is held in a tax-advantaged account.
However, investors are not expected to trigger a taxable event until one of their portfolio companies is sold at a profit.
Investments held for longer than a year benefit from long-term capital gains tax—taxed at a much lower rate than ordinary income. Additionally, Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) are taxed as partnerships, making this a favorable tax investment since it will generally not be subject to federal income tax.
State and local taxes also affect the total tax burden associated with the investment. For more clarity, consult with an advisor before making an investment.
