Newchip is an one stop marketplace to discover EVERY startup that's currently raising capital through equity crowdfunding. They aggregate all deals in the $50k to $1M and $1M to $50M categories.

This looks like it could be a really interesting way to help diversify funding/investments for entrepreneurs and investors alike. Just a heads up, you might want to update the "Thank You" page, since "Coming to Google Play + Desktops in July!" doesn't seem to be quite accurate. 😉

This looks and feels a little rustic, keep it minimal and clean guys! Great job otherwise.. Dolphins ftw :)

Apparently our video link wasn't working right on mobile, here it is if you want to check it out. This is pretty exciting stuff here.

Hey Everyone, Thanks for checking us out! Personally I've been involved in startups for over 20 years and helping early stage companies raise capital has become my mission. It's because, until recently, the funding system was rigged. You see, there is a major funding gap for early stage companies. Large venture funds and angel networks typically only invest in bigger deals. Private funding is available but only if you have a strong network, popular family name or happened to get lucky and win #1st in some pitch contest. And if you wanted to invest in early stage startups, you were banned from doing so unless you were already wealthy! This always seemed so unAmerican to me. Unfortunately, I've witnessed the majority of great ideas "die on the vine". They never get access to funding they need and that's a tragedy for innovation. With the laws changing last year in the US, Equity Crowdfunding is the NEW great equalizer. Now every American can support companies they believe in and own a piece of the company. (and for as little as $100) We built Newchip as a marketplace where 'new' investors can quickly discover awesome startups, and if they'd like, invest on the spot. By gathering all active funding startups across the entire country (any company raising through the new crowdfunding laws in the US), we make it as simple as possible to find ideas you believe in and invest immediately. You can also score the company based on your opinion, whether you're investing or not. We use machine learning to match you with deals you're most likely to be interested in, giving you a rapid discovery tool and fun way to interact with these companies. We're building a community where potential investors can easily find the coolest companies which are actively raising capital through equity based crowdfunding and we'd love for you to join us! Let's change the world together. Thank you! - Travis (@teq) p.s. We also help new companies understand the process of raising capital through equity crowdfunding and helping understand a clear process for raising capital in this new innovative model.

I'd like to meet other people that are interested in B2B tech investing.

Pros:

Makes investing in startups and Pre-IPO companies really simple.

Cons:

I wish there was a way to connect with other investors.

Tinder for startups and investing. Cool idea. Will definitely keep an eye on it!

Looks really interesting. Good luck guys!

Pee my pants excited about this one because it's born of Austin, perhaps for a reason. Thriving startup ecosystem remote from the venture capital and investment hubs of the coasts. This is innovation of funding evident where such a solution is most needed.

Android? You're missing a huge chunk of the market without an Android app.

@bengreenwood right around the corner. We are new and wanted to get it right on one platform first. Thanks for the feedback!
Primer
Can non-Americans invest in American startups and vice versa, can non-American startups find investment from American citizens?
Travis Brodeen
@mickc79 There is a lot of regulations baked into your question, and the answer is - it's complicated. Sometimes and sometimes not, so every deal and tier of investment has slightly different regulations. We are currently focused on US Investors and US Companies but will be expanding internationally in the next few months. Thank you for your question! If you have a specific scenario I may be able to get you a more clear answer. Thanks!
Ryan Andrew Rafols
@mickc79 Non-American Accredited Investors can. But not Non-American Non-Accredited.... yet! We'll need another regulatory change for that but keep your fingers crossed 😉
Ryan Andrew Rafols
Would really love everyones feedback on the platform and how we can continue to make it better! We'll be launching our new social features in about a week and that's going to take it to🙌🏻 the next level!

💡 Opportunity U.S. law changed last year and now for the first time in a century, EVERYONE can invest in startups with the big 🦈’s starting at just $100! Investment platforms have since launched 🚀 in every major city across the nation to help seed stage startups raise 💵 from their supporters.  🤔Problem With so many platforms, how do we get the 🗣 out to everyone in the most efficient way possible? How do YOU even manage investments across 50+ platforms😖? How do you cut through the noise and connect to investments that TRULY resonate with you😻? 🛠 Solution Newchip is the Kayak + Mint for this new ecosystem 🎉. We’re building a social centered investment marketplace to connect entrepreneurs, their supporters, and 200 million new investors to disrupt venture capital and solve the seed stage funding gap 🙌.  We utilize machine learning 🤖 to personalize investment opportunities to YOU based on your interest, preferences, and social network. We’re soft launching right now. We're starting off with the marketplace and will eventually launch a 🌎 secondary market. Looking forward to your feedback!

Newchip will change the investing landscape by consolidating the top investment platforms into one marketplace, and eventually launch a secondary exchange.  It has been called the “Kayak” and even the “Shark Tank” of investing for the everyday American. The Newchip infrastructure unifies a multi billion-dollar global market that has been fragmented into hundreds of platforms by funneling investment opportunities into one convenient location. Newchip is quickly becoming the vanguard of an evolving ecosystem through innovations such as its SmartMatch that utilizes machine learning to personalize opportunities for each user based on their preferences and interests.
