Why your ETF is leaking money.

In Ireland, ETFs are taxed under 'Deemed Disposal' rules. It's designed to destroy our compounding.

Our Origin

Engineered in Dublin. For Irish Wallets.

We are a team of engineers and investors based in Dublin 2. We were tired of watching 41% of our ETF gains disappear. So, we built the solution.

Project Direct is the productization of our collective vision to automate "Direct Indexing"—buying the actual shares instead of the wrapper.

Frequent Questions

Do I get the €1,270 Tax Free Allowance?

Yes. Unlike ETFs (where every Euro is taxed), Direct Share ownership allows you to earn your first €1,270 of profit tax-free every year. Over 20 years, that is over €25,000 of tax-free gain.

How much does this cost?

For Alpha testers, the platform is 100% free. In the future, we will charge a flat monthly subscription (SaaS) rather than a % of your assets.

How does rebalancing work?

We act as your "Portfolio Co-Pilot." When you deposit funds, we calculate the perfect buy order to balance your portfolio. We send you a notification, and you execute the trade in one click. You stay in control.

How are US Dividends handled?

We help you generate the W-8BEN form, reducing US withholding tax from 30% to 15%. Dividends are paid directly to your brokerage account.

Do you ever sell my shares?

We never sell without your permission. If a company is removed from the S&P 500, we send you a "Rebalance Alert" recommending a sale. Since these companies are usually dropping, this allows you to capture a Capital Loss to offset future taxes.
