Today, WLTH officially launches its new app on Apple and Google, aiming to transform how everyday investors access high-growth private companies before they go public. The platform seeks to bridge the gap between users and the companies they help create, offering a transparent, structured, and inclusive approach to pre-IPO participation.

Pre-IPO Access Has Been Broken
The pre-IPO market has long been a playground for venture capitalists, institutional investors, and insiders. Everyday users, the people who adopt, promote, and embed products into culture have historically been excluded from the financial upside. Opaque networks, high minimum investment thresholds, and complex legal barriers make participation almost impossible for the average investor.
Tim McCann, Co-Founder of WLTH, explains:
“For too long, the people driving value in private companies haven’t had a way to participate in the upside. Our app changes that by making early-stage investment accessible, structured, and understandable.”
The WLTH App: How It Works
The WLTH app combines investment access with education and insights, offering users a chance to engage with private companies at a stage where value creation is happening most rapidly. Key features include:
- Economic exposure to private companies: Users can participate in growth through digital assets representing their stake.
- Structured, protocol-driven access: Every opportunity is offered transparently, removing arbitrary gatekeeping.
- Insight and storytelling: Every investment is presented with context, so users understand why a company matters, how it is growing, and where momentum is building.
- Ongoing private market updates: Users receive relevant, curated information to support informed participation.
This combination of access, structure, and education creates a new model for pre-IPO investing, aligning value creation with those who help drive it.
Why It Matters
2026 is shaping up to be the “Summer of Pre-IPO,” with private companies delaying public listings and valuations climbing higher than ever. For those historically shut out, the timing could not be better. The WLTH app positions itself as a solution to one of the most persistent problems in the investor landscape: inclusion.
“Private market growth has been reserved for a few. WLTH is here to open that door to the people who matter most to users,” McCann says.
