What Moneymade does

MoneyMade operates an investment discovery and education platform that aggregates information on 239-246 investment platforms across seven asset classes—stocks, real estate, crypto, collectibles, commodities, private credit, and private companies. The company serves retail investors, both accredited and non-accredited, who seek to diversify beyond traditional public market investments, with a particular focus on alternative assets such as collectibles, real estate crowdfunding, private companies, and commodities. Its core offerings include a searchable platform directory, an educational content library, and a weekly newsletter (The Everyday Investor Brief) with 5,400+ subscribers delivering curated market signals every Thursday.

The platform is built as a web-based content and directory product using Supabase for database and authentication, Beehiiv for newsletter delivery, and Vercel for web hosting. The three primary products are a Platform Directory enabling filtering and comparison of investment platforms by asset class, minimum investment, fees, target returns, and liquidity; a Market Intelligence content library covering investment guides, platform reviews, and analysis; and the free weekly newsletter. MoneyMade does not maintain a mobile application, and its distribution is digital-first through organic search, email, and affiliate referrals.

MoneyMade generates revenue through two primary streams: affiliate commissions earned when users sign up for partner investment platforms via tracked links, and advertising revenue from paid placements by financial services companies. Sponsored content is clearly labeled and editorially separated from reviews. The platform is free for consumers with no subscription fees. The company has disclosed $2.75 million in funding from a 2021 round and operates with 11-50 employees from Los Angeles, United States.
