Catalyst: An AI trading agent platform for retail investors
Project Overview
Catalyst, founded in 2025, is dedicated to building AI trading agents for everyday investors.

On October 8, Catalyst announced the completion of a $30 million seed round led by Sequoia Capital, with participation from Jump Trading, PeakXV, Lux Capital, AntiFund, Coinbase, and Premji Invest.
