A NEW ERA OF WEALTH CREATION

Announcing dub's Series A

40% of Americans don’t own a stock. The 10% Wealthiest Americans own 88% of the stock market. Most Americans haven’t - or haven’t equally - participated in the greatest wealth creation engine of our times.

Why? Because investing is hard. - Stocks are confusing. And picking the right ones?... Even most full-time professionals get it wrong.

The wealthy figured this out long ago. They don’t try to pick stocks themselves - they pick people to invest for them. Hedge fund managers. Star investors. Experts. Because as with all difficult things in life, you don't do it yourself: you trust the experts. Just like we do with doctors, lawyers, and architects. And here’s the secret, we’re actually pretty good at picking smart people. You know it when you see it. You feel it when someone walks into the room. It’s human nature.

dub is giving everyday Americans the same edge the wealthy have always had through copy-trading: the power to invest by choosing great people and investing alongside them automatically. This isn’t just about simplifying investing. It’s about transforming it. Moving from stock-picking to people picking, changes the entire playbook, unlocking access, participation, and ultimately, opportunity for all.

If we get this right, dub won’t just be a new way to invest. It’ll be the beginning of a more equal, more abundant future.

Join us. Let’s build wealth together…

Sincerely,

CEO & Founder

Steven Wang

The fundraise

To bring our vision to life, dub has raised a $30 Million Series A, co-led by Notable Capital (Fmr. GGV) and Neo. I’m incredibly excited to work with both Hans Tung and Ali Partovi; both legends who’ve backed nearly 20 companies from startup to IPO. They’re joined by Sandberg Bernthal Venture Partners (Sherly Sandberg’s Family Office), Correlation Ventures, Peak6 Strategic Capital, Tusk Venture Partners, angels like the CEOs of Replit, Apex, the Fmr. CTO of Tinder, and many more.

This builds on the foundation of our existing investor base, which includes the CEOs or Founders of Uber, Airbnb, Robinhood, Affirm, Quicken Loans, partners at Sequoia and Andreessen Horowitz... We’re fortunate to have some of the best minds in tech and finance backing dub’s mission, and we’re just getting started.

Next up

Over the next 6 months, dub will launch the most significant product upgrades since our debut over a year ago. This next chapter, dub 3.0, brings us closer than ever to the original vision of building a true marketplace for investing. We’ve already proven we can attract and engage everyday investors. Now, we’re turning our focus to creators, and we’re going to scale that side of the marketplace like never before.
