About initPub

initPub is a marketplace where vetted startups raise capital by issuing shares to a community of investors — and investors can buy, hold, and trade those shares on a real order book.

Our mission

We believe early-stage investing should be accessible to everyone, not just venture capitalists. By lowering the barrier to entry for both startups and investors, we enable a new generation of public companies to emerge from the community.

How we verify startups

Every startup on initPub goes through our verification process — live product links, traction evidence, social proof, and founder identity. We score each submission and our team reviews it before approving any listing.

Legal notice

initPub operates under a jurisdiction-specific compliance gate. Purchases on this platform may represent non-binding pledges of interest rather than registered securities, depending on your jurisdiction. Please read our risk disclosure before investing.
