Invest $99.06 minimum investment Deadline: October 31, 2024 in a month Unit Price $0.39 TOTAL RAISED ON NETCAPITAL $9,793 Total Raised this round $9,793 Valuation this round $6,960,000 Add to Watchlist Reg CF offering provided by Netcapital Funding Portal Inc. * Pitch Introducing AceHedgeProblemCompany DescriptionBenefitsOur Blockchain TechnologyOur Guiding PrinciplesMarketBusiness ModelTeamUse of ProceedsTermsPitch DeckFinancialsFilingsMore Info * Updates * Discussion * Invest INTRODUCING ACEHEDGE AceHedge hopes to bridge the information gap between public and private markets by offering two main products: * Data analytics for private securities for both individual and institutional investors, and * Programmatic tools for hedging fat tail risks for investment managers and hedge funds We plan to leverage machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms to increase the efficiency of business processes and inform strategic decision making. The integration of AI into the decision-making framework should not only help to streamline operations but also enable companies to adapt swiftly to dynamic market conditions. Through our data analytic infrastructure, we plan to connect private securities to broader financial markets by providing a quantitative framework for programmatic investment and leveraging dynamic multi-asset class hedging strategies for institutional investors. PROBLEM With very little transparency into private market transactions, the public is largely uninformed about the data that drives the most significant events in private capital markets. This is because the current data landscape for private markets involves outdated and slow systems that are used to report financial transactions. As a result, only a select few truly understand private market dynamics. COMPANY DESCRIPTION The AceHedge system plans to capture and record real-time data using artificial intelligence to standardize the vast data sources produced daily: an always-on, zero trust model to record high-quality, digitally signed, immutable information. BENEFITS Accessibility: accessibility to real-time, structured private market data for our community. We plan to achieve this by using blockchain technology to create a public ledger of all transactions. Transparency: private markets transparency for investors so they can make informed investment decisions OUR BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY We're adopting a permissioned blockchain to enhance our data quality. We expect this approach to empower us to manage a specific amount of nodes, ensuring a balance between control and decentralization. Additionally, it should provide users with transparent access to current transactions in the ledger, while safeguarding data from unauthorized eyes. OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES Quality: We are building an ecosystem that focuses on high data quality and reliability to serve as the foundation for decision-making. Blockchain technology ensures data quality by authenticating transactions and preserving data immutability. Community: We are cultivating a strong community of individuals invested in the forward progress of the financial markets landscape as a whole, leveraging the power of collaboration, reputation, and shared knowledge. Transparency: We hope to enable our community by providing transparency in the data we collect so that those invested will have the freedom to explore and learn from our democratized data. MARKET The global portfolio management software market reached $3.2 billion in 2022. It is expected to grow to $11.8 billion by 2032 with a projected CAGR of 14.2%.
