Pre IPO Deals
Introducing Pre-IPO Investment Deals
At Clariton Trust, we’re breaking down the walls of traditional finance. Pre-IPO Deals allow accredited investors to own shares in high-growth private companies before they go public. These are the same deals venture capitalists and insiders have been profiting from — now, they’re available to you.
Backed by Top VCs
Gain access to companies supported by global venture firms like Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and SoftBank. These are startup giants in the making, already validated by the best in the business.
No Membership Barriers
Join without hidden fees or private club walls. Clariton Trust lets accredited investors explore elite deals without needing to be part of a private fund or family office.
Secondary Market Access
We source shares from early equity holders and employees — giving you access to rare private equity that would otherwise stay off-market.
Low Entry Minimums
Invest from as little as $5,000. No seven-figure buy-ins needed. You don’t need to be a VC fund to get in early — just a believer in bold opportunities.
Why Pre-IPO Deals Matter
Pre-IPO investing is where the real wealth is built. Public investors often arrive after the biggest gains have already happened. When you invest in pre-IPO startups, you enter at a stage where valuations are lower, potential upside is higher, and you're aligned with the most strategic capital in the world.
Clariton Trust helps level the playing field. These deals are fully vetted, legally structured via Series LLCs, and made simple through a secure, trackable investor dashboard. This is how private equity becomes truly accessible.
