About AltsVesting
Clear thinking for alternative investors
AltsVesting exists for one reason:
alternative investments are powerful, but they're easy to get wrong.
​
From real estate and private credit to niche platforms and emerging asset classes, alternatives offer opportunities that don’t always exist in public markets. They also come with complexity, opacity, and risks that are often downplayed—or ignored entirely.
We built AltsVesting to change that.
​
Why AltsVesting exists
​
The alternative investing ecosystem is crowded with:
-
Platform marketing disguised as education
-
Paid rankings and sponsored “reviews”
-
Incentives that reward growth, not investor outcomes
​
As investors ourselves, we wanted a resource that focused on due diligence, context, and trade-offs—not hype.
AltsVesting provides independent research and analysis designed to help investors understand what they’re actually investing in before committing capital.
Our independence matters
We don’t sell investment products.
We don’t accept paid placements or sponsored reviews.
We don’t rank platforms based on who pays us.
Our work is funded by our readers, not by the platforms we analyze. That independence allows us to be honest about:
-
Hidden fees and incentive structures
-
Liquidity constraints and lock-up risks
-
Downside scenarios that only appear in stressed markets
If a platform looks great, we’ll say so.
If it doesn’t, we’ll say that too.
​
How we approach research
​
Every platform we cover is evaluated using a consistent, investor-focused framework that examines:
-
Fees and economic incentives
-
Liquidity, lock-ups, and exit options
-
Risk structure and downside exposure
-
Transparency, disclosures, and governance
-
Alignment between operators and investors
​
Our goal isn’t to tell you what to invest in.
It’s to help you avoid costly mistakes—and make better decisions faster.
​
