LinqAlpha, an AI-powered research platform built by former Goldman Sachs analysts and MIT computer science PhDs, has raised $22 million in Series A funding to expand its presence on Wall Street.
AVP, Atinum Investment, and GFT Ventures co-led the round, with participation from financial institutions across Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, and India. The company’s total funding now stands at approximately $28.6 million.
Founded in 2022, LinqAlpha analyzes earnings calls, regulatory filings, and social media to surface market-moving signals for hedge fund analysts and asset managers. The platform is designed to compete with larger incumbents like AlphaSense, which has raised over $1.7 billion.
The company started as Linq in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and is now headquartered in New York, focusing on institutional clients. The founding team brings together expertise from Goldman Sachs, quantitative hedge funds, and MIT.
“The edge no longer comes from retrieving information,” said co-founder and co-CEO Hojun Choi. “It comes from systems that surface market-moving signals before they are priced in.”
LinqAlpha previously raised $6.6 million in 2024. The new capital will be used to grow the engineering team and expand into new asset classes and geographies.
