About Us

Auquan’s AI tools enable hedge funds and asset managers to turbocharge their investment workflows with data-driven insights.

Our Portfolio Activity Monitor helps funds deal with information overload as they struggle to find insights in 38 million terabytes of unstructured data that exists today. We use Natural Language Processing and our proprietary Knowledge Graph to help automatically monitor, filter, and process millions of terabytes of structured and unstructured data like news, filings, and alternative datasets into a single page view of only the most relevant information so fund managers focus only on what’s important and never leave alpha on the table.

We’re a deep tech company, with a strong focus on practical applications; everything we build is informed by real-world client insights and it’s practicality in solving these challenges.[customer first, not technology]
