Meet the team
The founding team comes from big tech, hedge funds, and a previous exit before starting a robo-advisor (Quantbase) with thousands of clients. We expect each other to work at our best and constantly challenge ourselves to find ways to grow faster and deliver a better customer experience. The result is a tight-knit company growing rapidly as the cutting edge upstart in an old industry.
We take our work seriously but always find time to share a laugh and get to know each other on a personal level. The team is largely remote, but our main office is in New York City on Wall Street. We will frequently get together - either in NYC, or SF, or at a week long Airbnb in some cool location, to work together in-person 3-5 times a year. Outside of those times, you’re welcome to use the office any time or work from home.
To date, we've raised $2.5M from Y Combinator, Lynett Capital, and Singularity Capital among others.
