Frequently asked questions
How does KingsCrowd Capital source its deals?
KingsCrowd Capital sources almost all of its deals through Regulation Crowdfunding platforms such as Wefunder, StartEngine, and Republic. The parent company KingsCrowd operates an analytics platform that rates and tracks every Reg CF offering, giving the fund a unique proprietary deal-screening tool. This means the firm sees substantially all online capital raises in its target segment and can benchmark issuers before committing capital.
Is KingsCrowd Capital a venture capital fund or an analytics company?
KingsCrowd Capital is the venture capital fund arm, while KingsCrowd Inc. is the separate data and analytics parent company that rates equity crowdfunding offerings. The fund makes direct venture investments, and the analytics platform serves as both a revenue-generating product for retail subscribers and a proprietary research tool for the fund. They operate as distinct but tightly integrated entities under the same founder.
Does KingsCrowd Capital make any fund commitments to other venture firms?
No. KingsCrowd Capital exclusively makes direct investments into individual startup equity rounds on crowdfunding platforms. The firm does not invest as an LP in other venture funds, nor does it participate in traditional VC syndicates or special purpose vehicles outside its core Reg CF platform strategy.
