NEW YORK, April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Atlas Invest has been named 2025 Most Promising Startup by Globes, a distinction awarded to high-growth companies transforming their industries. Past recipients include standout companies such as Monday.com, Mellanox, and Aramis – all known for reshaping their complex markets through bold innovation and real-world impact.
“We’ve reimagined what it means to invest in real estate debt,” said Tal Shahar, CEO and Co-Founder of Atlas Invest. “Atlas brings institutional-grade discipline and cutting-edge technology to a space that’s long been fragmented and opaque. The industry is ready for a new standard, and Atlas is proud to be leading that shift.”
Positioned to become the central hub for real estate debt, Atlas Invest has transformed access to a highly sought-after but historically underutilized asset class: short-term, senior-position real estate debt. Long valued for its safety and consistent returns, this category has been constrained by outdated processes, inefficiencies, and inconsistent servicing standards.
Atlas bridges these gaps with purpose-built infrastructure that delivers reliability, speed, and transparency to both sides of the market. Real estate borrowers receive capital with certainty. Investors gain access to managed portfolios of first-lien loans backed by high-quality real estate in major U.S. markets.
“There’s no shortage of interest in this asset class,” added Nir Peled, CRO and Co-Founder. “The challenge has always been delivering it at scale, with precision and reliability. That’s exactly what we’ve built.”
Atlas combines proprietary AI, institutional-grade credit expertise, and comprehensive loan servicing. Investors can access a managed account solution tailored to their strategy, aligned incentives, and consistent income from short-term, first-lien loans backed by real estate in prime U.S. markets.
Atlas recently closed an $11 million strategic funding round to accelerate growth and expand access to its fully managed investment offering. The company is backed by investors with a track record of early-stage involvement in breakout companies such as eToro, Fiverr, Real, and Moon Active.
