This Canadian Fintech Wants Everybody to Invest Like a Hedge Fund Manager

A Vancouver-born startup unveiled this month what it describes as “the world’s first AI Hedge Fund-in-a-Box.”

TruthSayer AI says its flagship offering is designed for retail investors, small hedge funds, and family offices.

The AI-powered platform delivers machine-learning-based investment signals and intelligence, without the high financial and time costs associated with researching advanced quantitative strategies, according to a statement from the firm.

TruthSayer was founded by Nizar Assanie, who says that younger generations are struggling to save and invest in the current economic conditions.

“The average Gen Z or Millennial needs a 9% annual return for 40 years to retire comfortably,” he says. “Unfortunately, most aren’t hitting those targets, leading to poor investment choices.”

TruthSayer offers three proprietary indices: Earnings AI, Valuations AI, and Dark Pools AI. The upstart claims win rates on trades of 85%, which is a “significant edge” over traditional rates if true.

“TruthSayer AI changes the game by giving retail investors access to machine learning-powered quant hedge fund strategies that are proven to be highly accurate and uncorrelated to market returns,” stated Assanie.

The platform employs LLM-as-a-Service architecture, analyzing more than 100 million financial statement data points, three million minutes of financial audio transcripts, $3 trillion in dark pool transactions, and $50 billion in insider trading activity, as well as 400,000 earnings releases and valuation models covering thousands of U.S.-listed stocks.

“Our system trades every signal generated by these algorithms, giving retail investors access to actionable, data-driven insights—just like hedge funds,” he said.

The system is both more efficient and accurate than other AI rivals, according to Assanie.

“We’re able to deliver superior accuracy at 40% lower cost compared to proprietary models through innovations like LLMaaS and dynamically selected open-source LLMs,” he said.

The seed-funded fintech intends to “raise additional capital in the coming months to accelerate its growth and solidify its position as a leader in the investments AI space,” according to a statement from the B.C. firm.

The platform’s pricing starts at $3 per month.
