Opening Retail Access to Venture

Innovation builds the future and creates opportunity. Yet everyday investors remain locked out. We're here to change that.

For decades, only a select few well-connected participants could access America's most promising private companies. That changes with USVC: an SEC-registered vehicle from AngelList and a partner RIA, designed to open up top-tier, multi-stage venture capital to everyone. No accreditation. No decades-long lockups. No stacked carry. Just access to tomorrow's defining companies in a single ticker.
