Alt is on a mission to transform investing by unlocking the value of alternative assets, starting with the $5 billion trading card market. The platform enables collectors to buy, sell, value, and securely store their collectible cards while envisioning a world where anything becomes an investable asset. Through their marketplace, vault services, and lending platform, Alt provides comprehensive solutions that turn collectibles into liquid, investable assets. Alt has raised significant funding from top-tier investors including Seven Seven Six, First Round Capital, and professional athletes like Tom Brady, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Kevin Durant, positioning the company at the forefront of the alternative asset revolution.
The platform combines real-time pricing data through their proprietary Alt Value system, which analyzes over 10 million cards using transaction history and market knowledge to provide accurate, up-to-date valuations. Their auction system moves hundreds of millions in GMV, while their lending products allow collectors to borrow against their cards without selling. Alt's Snap to Sell feature simplifies consignment, and their Vault service provides secure storage with insurance for high-value cards. The company was named one of the best remote-first places to work in 2021 by Built In and continues to expand its team across engineering, product, marketing, and operations.
