PANews reported on February 25 that Finrob, an AI-native research platform for the financial and cryptocurrency markets, announced the completion of a $3.9 million seed funding round, with participation from Maven 11, Placeholder VC, Node Capital, Archetype, Dispersion Capital, and Fabric Ventures.

Finrob provides the financial and crypto markets with a professional AI agent powered by Claude, GPT-5.2, and Gemini 3.1, enabling real-time on-chain analytics and market intelligence queries. The platform integrates data sources such as Glassnode, CoinGecko, and DefiLlama, allowing users to access complex data through a conversational interface. Furthermore, Finrob employs a pay-per-use model based on the x402 protocol and uses USDC for settlement, aiming to lower the cost barrier for institutional research.
