AI-native financial technology platform LinqAlpha has announced the close of a $22 million Series A funding round co-anchored by AVP, Atinum Investment, and GFT Ventures. The round was oversubscribed, featuring a heavy geographic syndicate across the Asia-Pacific region, including strategic participation from SBI Investment, Z Venture Capital, Samsung Securities, and Mirae Asset Venture Investment. Founded by former Goldman Sachs analysts and MIT computer science PhDs, the New York-headquartered startup provides specialized AI agents designed to act as a localized “second brain” for institutional investors. Rather than outputting generic Large Language Model answers, LinqAlpha’s multi-agent platform continuously adapts to each investment team’s unique feedback, thesis history, and proprietary framework to synthesize complex market data into actionable signals before they are priced in by the broader consensus.

Highlighting a paradigm shift in financial machine learning, Hojun Choi, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of LinqAlpha, stated: “The first wave of AI in finance made analysts faster. The next wave changes what they can know. The edge no longer comes from retrieving information; it comes from systems that surface market-moving signals before they are priced in.” Echoing this focus on predictive intelligence, Manish Agarwal, General Partner at AVP, added: “Most AI tools in finance help professionals retrieve information faster or automate repetitive work. LinqAlpha is addressing a larger opportunity: building systems that help institutional investors discover differentiated insights in public markets that reward speed, context, and proprietary judgment.”
