What Uniborn does

Uniborn O\u00dc (trade name Uniborn) is an investment neobank and community-led syndication platform headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia, founded in 2023 by Dmitry Samoylovskikh. The company operates a mobile-first platform that structures, executes, and administers co-investments in growth-stage technology companies through Special Purpose Vehicles, supporting both Estonian O\u00dc (Loan Notes) and Delaware Series LLC (Units) structures, with end-to-end handling of SPV setup, KYC/KYB verification via Sumsub, document generation, banking, and regulatory filing.

The product surface centers on Cartels, virtual private investment clubs that aggregate angels, family offices, UHNWIs, and institutional investors, plus deal-level SPVs managed by Deal Leads. Since launch, Uniborn has closed more than 50 deals, arranged 30+ SPVs in its first full year, and built an investor network exceeding 1,000 participants, with mandate allocation sizes up to $150m. The company reports 40% faster average deal cycle versus industry benchmarks, 15-minute deal setup, 5-minute KYC, and 2-48 hour SPV creation entirely from the mobile app.

The business model is transaction-fee based: a 2% admin fee on total amount raised per SPV (subject to a EUR 3,000 minimum) and a 1% secondary transfer fee (capped at EUR 1,000). Uniborn is FIU-licensed in Estonia (license FIU000420) and GDPR-compliant. The company bootstrapped from near cash-exhaustion in 2024 to profitability by mid-2024, grew revenue roughly 50x over the subsequent 18 months, and targets at least 3x year-over-year growth in 2026 while serving named counterparties including Rapyd, Finom, Refurbed, Salmon, Plata, Upgrade, and Gonka AI.
