NetJets Turned the Private Jet Into a Subscription Before Subscriptions Were Cool
The Columbus company does not merely sell flights. It sells relief from owning an entire aircraft - then uses a vast fleet, specialized crews and a 24-hour operations machine to make that promise hold up.
SDAX
SDAX is a Singapore-based, MAS-regulated digital asset exchange that tokenises and fractionalises institutional-grade real-world assets - from real estate and private credit to securitised gold - so investors can access private-market deals from as little as SGD1,000 and trade them on a regulated secondary market.
Stake
Stake is a Dubai-based digital real estate investment platform that lets people buy fractions of income-generating property from as little as AED 500. Investors earn passive rental income and capital appreciation while Stake handles sourcing, acquisition, management and exit. Regulated by the DFSA in the UAE and the CMA in Saudi Arabia, the platform serves more than two million users across 181 countries and has expanded from Dubai into Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and US industrial real estate.
Masterworks
Masterworks is a New York fintech that lets everyday investors buy fractional shares in multimillion-dollar blue-chip paintings by artists such as Basquiat, Picasso, Warhol and Banksy. Founded in 2017 by serial entrepreneur Scott Lynn, the company buys individual artworks, registers each as a public offering with the SEC, and sells shares for as little as $20, then holds the work for several years before selling it and distributing proceeds. It reached unicorn status in 2021 after a $110M Series A and has grown to more than one million members.
Fractional
Fractional is a San Francisco company that lets groups of friends, followers, or strangers co-own investment properties and other assets together through member-run investment clubs. Instead of raising money as a securities offering, each club is a member-owned LLC where everyone is an active participant with voting rights, sidestepping the expensive PPMs and accredited-only rules of traditional syndications. Fractional handles the back office - LLC formation, compliance, bookkeeping, distributions, and K-1 tax filings - so ordinary people can pool small checks into real estate, private lending, and even the occasional laundromat or candy store.
Tirios
Tirios is an Austin-based proptech platform that lets everyday investors buy fractional shares of single-family rental homes for as little as $100. It uses AI to source and underwrite properties, records ownership on blockchain via tokenization, and manages the homes end-to-end - collecting rent, paying expenses, and distributing quarterly dividends. Founded in 2021 by former Icahn Enterprises executive Sachin Latawa, Tirios is SEC-qualified under Regulation A+ and pitches itself as a vertically integrated, low-fee way to make real estate investing accessible to millennials and first-time investors.
