Velvet for Allocators:#

The diligence of each individual fund can take an upward of 6 months to complete. Through a series of automation and partners, Velvet collects in-depth information to conduct diligence on funds. This enables allocators to make investment decisions with ease. Presently, crypto funds are the most difficult to evaluate due to most track records being less than 3 years. Velvet streamlines the diligence process, allowing allocators to be more confident in their investments.

Close investors digitally#

Velvet allows allocators to view funds, indicate interest, and commit capital all through the platform. With on-platform communication tools, getting in touch with a manager will be easier than ever.

Fund-friendly success-based fees#

Unlike other fundraising tools, Velvet operates on a success based model. Funds are only charged on what they raise through our platform. On a typical raise, funds are charged 3% financed over 3 years. Pricing varies depending on the size of the raise and the type of the fund.
