🦄 EarlyBird: Invest in your loved ones’ children

  
💼 Opportunities

With the impact Robinhood and other apps have had in lowering the barriers of entry to investing, the number of casual retail investors has been skyrocketing. Riding this wave is EarlyBird, which has taken this concept and made it possible to gift children investments rather than cash. With more people investing than ever, it’s easy to see how a market of family and friends interested in long-term investing in the financial future of their children exists. EarlyBird understands this, and it capitalizes on it with an interface that shows how much your contribution will be worth when the child turns 18. It also hopes to simplify the investment process by making account management easy through risk-based portfolios, offering tools meant to teach parents and children about investment, and providing security in the form of protecting investments up to $500,000. With these features in mind, we believe EarlyBird has the potential to completely change this relatively untouched, but very promising, financial space.
