The Series A round was led by Eos Ventures and the Development Bank of Wales to scale investment products and expand operations.
"A lot of hardworking professionals look like they’re doing well on paper, but still feel unsure whether they’re actually making the most of their money. They’ve outgrown entry-level investing tools, yet traditional wealth management often feels overcomplicated and expensive for what it delivers. Sidekick is designed to remove unnecessary complexity and give people access to investment tools that have traditionally sat inside private banking. This funding allows us to scale that approach, expand our investment offering and reach more people who want transparency rather than complexity."
AlbionVC led the investment round alongside Portage Ventures and MS&AD to support team expansion.
"Growing institutional participation is transforming crypto markets and creating a greater need for credible, independent risk intelligence. Agio Ratings provides a clear, data-driven view of the probability of default for exchanges and other institutions, and their alerts deliver a valuable independent signal alongside our own monitoring by flagging anomalous transaction patterns."
The funding round was led by Viola Growth and will support expansion across the United States and Europe.
"The future is on-demand. In just a few years, the way we access services like taxis and the way we purchase our groceries and pizzas has changed forever."
The financing round was co-led by Pact VC and TheVentureCity, with debt backing from Columbia Lake Partners.
"We’re looking to address the growing inequity of wealth creation and let the money of hard-working entrepreneurs and professionals work harder. With over a million people in our target demographic in the UK seeking support for their financial goals, the demand for innovative wealth management solutions tailored to their unique needs is undeniable. Sidekick exists to ensure that it’s not just the ultra-wealthy that have access to the tools and products needed to secure long-term financial prosperity."
The investment round was led by Augmentum Fintech with backing from existing investors.
"Our latest funding round is a testament to the exciting work we're doing at Artificial. We are thrilled to have the expertise and support of the Augmentum team and our committed existing investors on this next phase of our journey."
