We built an online platform that lets financial advisors and accredited investors access top private alternative investments that were previously hard to reach. Our product automates manual processes like subscription document signing and reporting. Advisors get a single workspace for managing their alternative investments, integrated with leading custodians and reporting tools.
We live in San Francisco, and Sliced Investing is based here as well.
San Francisco is where most fintech and asset management innovation happens, and where our early users - financial advisors and investors - are located. Staying here keeps us close to the market and partners.
