Vercel is a leading frontend cloud platform that simplifies web application deployment for developers and enterprises alike. Founded in 2015 and originally known as ZEIT, Vercel rebranded in 2020 and has since revolutionized the way modern JavaScript applications are built and deployed. Its flagship product, Next.js, is a powerful React framework that enables developers to create high-performance applications with features like server-side rendering and built-in routing. Vercel's innovative approach allows users to push code to Git, automatically handling the complexities of building, deploying, and scaling applications globally.
With an impressive annual recurring revenue (ARR) of $200 million projected by May 2025, Vercel has experienced remarkable growth, scaling from just $1 million in 2019 to $86 million in 2023. The company has raised $563 million in funding, with a current valuation estimated between $8 billion and $9 billion. Vercel's recent introduction of v0, an AI assistant that generates user interfaces from text prompts, further broadens its appeal, allowing both developers and non-developers to create applications without coding expertise.
What sets Vercel apart is its commitment to enhancing the developer experience while expanding into enterprise solutions. By addressing the needs of large organizations with features like single sign-on and role-based access control, Vercel is poised for significant growth in the enterprise market. As it continues to innovate and democratize development through AI, Vercel aims to become a cornerstone of the evolving software landscape.
When investment opportunities become available for Vercel, they would typically be structured through US-based, bankruptcy-remote Delaware SPVs. As an investor, you would become a limited partner in a fund that indirectly holds shares of the company. This page is for expressing interest in future opportunities, not for making actual investments.
Direct investment into high-demand private companies like Vercel often requires $50M+ in capital. Our SPV structure gives you access at lower minimums by pooling capital and investing through intermediaries that already hold equity.
The minimum investment typically starts from $10,000, though it may vary depending on the deal size and available allocations.
Once the SPV is fully funded and the shares are secured, units will be allocated to your account and you'll be notified. This typically takes 2–3 weeks post close date.
Liquidity is not guaranteed. However, exits may occur through the following avenues:
(a) resale through our partner's Alternative Trading System (ATS) after a holding period,
(b) secondary market transactions,
(c) a future IPO of Vercel or its subsidiaries, or
(d) an acquisition of the company.
Key risks include equity risk (share value decline) and liquidity risk (limited tradability of private shares). As with any private market investment, capital loss is possible.
Taxation is treated the same as investing in US-listed stocks. Long-term capital gains (after 24 months) are taxed at 12.5%. Short-term gains are taxed as per your income tax slab.
All investments are made through SEC-compliant SPVs under Regulation S. The structure is similar to those used by leading US platforms like EquityZen and Forge.
