The Brief
MoneyMade Verdict
Dizraptor makes pre-IPO investing accessible with a $1,000 minimum, but its steep fees, opaque ownership structure, and limited customer support make it a high-risk choice even for experienced accredited investors.
Dizraptor is a mobile-first platform that gives accredited investors indirect access to late-stage private companies — including names like SpaceX, Neuralink, Epic Games, and Cohere — through special purpose vehicles (SPVs). Founded by Russian nationals Roman Vishnevskiy, Anatoly Radchenko, and Dmitry Belousov (previously behind crypto trading platform United Traders), the company is incorporated in Delaware and headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. It markets itself as a lower-barrier entry point into pre-IPO investing, with a $1,000 minimum versus the $10 million+ historically required by institutional-grade vehicles.
The platform's track record is genuinely mixed. Its best closed deal — a cloud infrastructure provider (widely understood to be DigitalOcean) — returned a net profit of +378%. However, several other completed investments have finished deeply negative, including two that resulted in -100% losses. Fees are also materially above industry norms, and Dizraptor does not hold a broker-dealer or registered investment adviser designation. Customer support is chat- and email-only, with no phone access — a point of friction flagged repeatedly in user reviews.
