SharesPost

close

Brief

SharesPost gives users the opportunity to buy or sell private company shares through a contract based process. View company info through the bulletin board where you can gain information regarding latest news, financing, articles, blog posts, user comments, and much more. A seller and/or buyer sets their own terms of contract and posts them onto the bulletin board for viewing. SharesPost standardizes the buying and selling of private company shares in a single online location, allowing the users to keep track of their multiple transactions.

Pixels & Bits was brought in to redesign the interface and implement those designs using Rails, HAML/SASS and unobtrusive JavaScript. During the process, Pixels & Bits created numerous design documents to aid the process and shareholder signoff.
