SAN MATEO, Calif., May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Alef Aeronautics, a sustainable mobility company designing and developing the flying car, announced today that it has publicly listed its securities on the Wefunder platform under SEC Regulation CF.

Alef has received more than 5,000 requests from non-accredited investors seeking to purchase its shares. To address growing public interest, the U.S. government, through the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), established Reg CF, which allows companies to offer a limited amount of securities prior to an IPO. While pre-IPO investments have traditionally been restricted to accredited investors, Reg CF enables broader participation by non-accredited investors.

Alef, backed by a $1 billion purchase backlog, over 1,000 flights completed, and investment from such VCs as Draper Associates, Impact VC, Draper B1, Bronco Ventures, Splash VC, is capitalizing on its strong position.

"Allowing members of the public to directly invest in Alef will greatly expand our community, which is critical at this early stage. As Alef experiences rapid growth, a strong network can provide valuable feedback and connections in technology, supply chain, manufacturing, and government relations. We've found that among the prospective non-accredited investors are technology experts, policymakers, and professionals who can contribute to Alef's success. If you own the shares, it's your company now," said Jim Dukhovny, CEO of Alef.
