[ 01 ] The problem

Tens of billions of shares go unvoted, every year.

Hold across more than one brokerage — plenty of investors do — and each account mails you a different ballot, points to a different portal, and gives no context for how anyone else is voting. So the shares sit silent.

Stakehold makes them one ballot.
[ 02 ] The product

Every brokerage. One ballot.

Stakehold links your accounts, surfaces what’s actually on the proxy across all of them, and shows how the funds and proxy advisors you trust are voting. You vote once; it routes back to the brokerage of record.

Aggregate Every brokerage, in one place.
Surface Votes, activist campaigns, material events.
Explain How major funds and proxy advisors are voting.
Vote One tap, routed back to your broker.
[ 03 ] Who it’s for

Built for the whole governance stack.

A user-facing app for retail investors, and the engagement layer underneath it for the brokers, issuers, and funds that depend on them.

Investors A clean way to vote.
See what’s on the proxy across every account you hold. Get plain-language context. Vote in seconds without leaving the app.
Brokers A neutral engagement layer.
Embed shareholder engagement into your app without rebuilding it, and without routing your account data through a competitor’s infrastructure.
Issuers & funds The data underneath.
Activist campaigns, voting patterns, ownership concentration, and a direct line to the retail base — as an API for IR teams, funds, and proxy advisors.
[ 04 ] Why now

Index voting power is being unwound back to the underlying holders — and the surface that delivers it does not yet exist.

The largest index managers are handing the vote back to the people who actually own the shares.

Retail participation is at a generational high.

The audience for this is bigger than it has ever been — and they’ve never had a real tool.
