Finance Content Writer

About dub

Founded in 2021 in NYC, dub is building the first copy-trading platform where instead of picking stocks, you pick people and mirror their investments. We've built the first marketplace for connecting retail investors with investing talent.


Our mission is to simplify investing by making it about people selection, and hopefully onboard the ~50% of Americans who don't own a single stock and aren't participating in the greatest wealth creation engine of our times: the stock market. Job done right, we will rewrite the playbook for how the regular individual invests and transform global GDP.

In less than 12 months post-launch, we just crossed 1 Million downloads and have almost 50K paying subscribers.


Backing

We've raised close to $40M from top VCs and visionaries to support our mission. Our institutional investors include Tusk Ventures Partners and Slow Venture, and our angels consist of partners from Sequoia and A16Z and the current or former CEO/Founders of Uber, Airbnb, Robinhood, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney, and TIAA.
