Aisot Technologies is a spinoff of ETH Zurich and specializes in developing artificial intelligence (AI) for asset managers, financial advisors, and fund managers. With the AI platform developed by aisot, called the "AI Insights Platform," users have the opportunity to directly access state-of-the-art AI and quant tools on an interactive platform, explains Stefan Klauser.
Sphere: How can asset managers utilize your platform?
Stefan Klauser: Asset managers can efficiently create and personalize new strategies, continuously optimize existing and new portfolios based on information from markets and alternative sources.
Sphere: What technologies do you use?
Stefan Klauser: We leverage technologies developed by pioneers in artificial intelligence. Personalization allows selection from a wide array of elements, such as volatility targets, weighting of various assets, turnover rates, and ESG factors, along with individual recommendations down to the level of individual securities.
Through the "Product Launch Pad," AI-optimized portfolios can be transformed into tradable investment products. Users also have the option to delegate the asset management mandate and ensure a more sophisticated management of their portfolios. This allows them to focus on specializations, satellite portfolios, or their own customer acquisition. Our platform can also be used for the implementation of proprietary or white-label investment products.
Sphere: Who is your target audience?
Stefan Klauser: Our products are currently used by various entities: asset managers, funds, family offices, financial advisors, and brokers in key regions such as Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and the USA. Many boutique asset management firms are among our customers. They use the features of the AI platform not only in creating personalized portfolios but also in analyzing and responding to market trends.
Sphere: Who is behind aisot?
Together with Nino Antulov-Fantulin and Tian Guo, I founded Aisot Technologies in 2019. Serving as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) is Roger Peyer, who previously worked at Avaloq and Vontobel. In recent months, we have attracted talent from industry leaders such as Google, InvestCloud, and GenTwo. As an ETH Zurich spin-off, we remain closely connected to ETH Zurich, including membership in the AI Center and the FinsureTech Hub.
Sphere: What is your cost structure?
Our subscription fees are tailored to the needs of customers and the complexity of the requested products. Currently, access to our platform starts at less than CHF 2000 per month. For the upcoming investment products, prices will depend on the product category, assets managed, and the fees our customers set for the products.
