LinqAlpha, the AI-native startup building the Alpha Intelligence Layer for global public markets, raised $22 million in Series A funding. The round was anchored by AVP, Atinum Investment, and GFT Ventures, with participation from a global syndicate of strategic financial institutions and venture platforms.
Manish Agarwal, General Partner at AVP, says 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.
Since launch, the LinqAlpha platform has witnessed rapid adoption, serving over 70 financial institutions across the U.S., Europe, and Asia, including sell-side sales, trading, and research teams at leading investment banks, as well as buy-side clients such as Causeway Capital Management and Schonfeld Strategic Advisors. Collectively, LinqAlpha’s buy-side clients manage more than $5 trillion in assets.
LinqAlpha said the new capital will be used to expand its global team—now headquartered in New York—deepen integrations across market and alternative datasets, and accelerate the deployment of its multi-agent platform across equities, macro, credit, and multi-asset strategies.
