Many founders achieve incredible things, yet still end up with nothing. It’s no secret that most seed-stage startups fail to exit, and even those that do often leave founders with little after investor preferences. Your founder journey could make you a millionaire—or leave you unable to pay for your kid’s college.

We’re building a community for founders who want to hedge against the risk of their startup not making it. Put a portion of your equity into a common fund with other founders and share in the success of the total fund.

Experienced founders understand that each new venture brings fresh risks—prior success doesn’t guarantee future wins in the startup world. While some founders will achieve multiple successful exits, for most, the outcomes of new startups tend to revert to the mean, often returning very little to founders or investors.

You don’t need Common Tide to stay financially secure, but there’s a reason every financial advisor recommends diversified investments for long-term wealth. With Common Tide, you have the unique chance to apply this principle using your own equity, gaining exposure to a diversified portfolio of VC-backed early stage startups.

As a repeat founder, you also understand the value of learning within a strong peer community. You may already pay significant fees each year to access such networks. With Common Tide, you gain access to an equally robust, exclusive community of founders—at no additional cost.
