Pre-IPO · Private market Frontier AI Research

What this position signifies

Private-market exposure, not listed stock. There are no public shares to buy, so any allocation here is illiquid: it cannot be sold on an exchange, it is valued only at funding rounds rather than daily, and capital is returned only if and when a liquidity event occurs. It also sits under an unusual capped-profit governance structure. Treat it as long-horizon venture capital, sized accordingly.

What actually moves it

  • Enterprise API adoption
  • Compute cost per token
  • Frontier model release cadence
  • Governance and funding structure

Before you commit to a pre-IPO position

There is no public ticker and no exchange on which to sell. A pre-IPO allocation is valued only when a new funding round prices it, which can be a year or more apart, so the figure you see between rounds is an estimate rather than a market price. Capital is returned only at a liquidity event — an IPO or an acquisition — and there is no guaranteed date for one, or guarantee that one happens at all. Size this position as money you can leave untouched.
