Scale AI scores 78/100 on Secondary Flow's composite model, which weighs founder and investor quality, sector momentum, valuation against public comparables, and secondary-market pricing. Its implied valuation sits 16.2% above the level its public comparables would imply. The secondary mark is 24.9% above the last primary round, so a buyer today is paying a premium to the price the last institutional investors paid. Secondary-market demand reads 76/100 (hot).

How can I buy or sell Scale AI shares?

Secondary Flow is a research tool, not a broker-dealer or a marketplace, so it does not execute transactions in Scale AI or any other private company. Private-company shares typically change hands through a company-approved tender offer, a direct transfer subject to the company's right of first refusal, or a regulated secondary marketplace, and most transfers require issuer consent. Secondary Flow tracks the resulting prices.
