    • Finny has raised $4.3 million in seed funding led by Maple VC and HNVR, with contributions from prominent backers like Morningstar CEO Kunal Kapoor. The funds will enhance its generative AI platform, which helps financial advisors identify potential clients using data-driven insights.
    • The platform features an ‘F-Score’ to assess advisor-client compatibility and automates engagement processes, enabling advisors to focus on personalised service. This funding marks Finny’s first major investment, positioning it for rapid growth in the competitive FinTech sector.

    What happened: Finny’s $4.3M funding

    Finny, a FinTech startup based in New York City, has successfully secured $4.3 million in seed funding to enhance its generative AI-powered platform. The funding round was led by Maple VC and HNVR, with contributions from prominent investors, including Crossbeam Ventures and Y Combinator. Individual backers such as Morningstar CEO Kunal Kapoor and Deel COO Dan Westgarth also participated.

    The company uses generative AI to help financial advisors identify potential clients by analysing publicly available data. By recognising key life events like property purchases, marriages, or business launches, Finny’s technology flags opportunities where professional financial advice could be valuable. The startup’s proprietary scoring system, called the ‘F-Score,’ predicts compatibility between advisors and potential clients, refining its accuracy through machine learning.

    Why this is important

    Finny’s platform is a notable example of how artificial intelligence can transform traditional industries, in this case, financial advisory services. With its ability to automate client outreach and identify promising prospects, the platform addresses a key challenge faced by financial advisors—spending too much time on finding clients rather than serving them.

    The startup’s innovative approach simplifies engagement by optimising communication strategies and automating routine tasks such as meeting scheduling. By doing so, financial advisors can focus on offering tailored guidance, improving client satisfaction and retention. The fresh injection of funding will enable Finny to refine its AI capabilities, broaden its user base, and drive technological advancements in the highly competitive FinTech sector.
