Menos AI Unveils AI-Powered Research Tools For Hedge Funds, Institutional Investors

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 7 (Bernama) -- Menos AI, an artificial intelligence (AI)-native fintech company, has officially launched its flagship product, Sonαr—an intelligent research agent designed to help hedge funds and institutional investors uncover timely, differentiated investment ideas.

In a statement, the company said Sonαr is currently being rolled out to selected partner funds, with a broader release planned in the near future.

Founded by investment veterans and AI experts, Menos AI is backed by a US$5.2 million oversubscribed seed funding round led by prominent Silicon Valley family offices and venture capital firms. (US$1=RM4.21)

“Alpha does not scream. It whispers. Sonαr helps investment teams hear it early—and act decisively,” said Menos AI Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, William Wu.

Meanwhile, its Co-founder and Chief AI Scientist, Chris Yang said the next generation of high-performing investment teams would be human–machine hybrids, and Menos AI aims to help firms build that AI edge.

Sonαr tackles the challenge of information overload by filtering through vast amounts of market updates, sell-side content, third-party research and internal notes to surface alpha-generating insights that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Developed in collaboration with leading global macro and multi-strategy hedge funds, the platform uses proprietary Alpha Signal Extraction technology to identify market-relevant ideas based on novelty and timeliness.

Its forthcoming Voice Scoring capability will highlight contributors who consistently deliver early and accurate insights—allowing firms to act with greater clarity and conviction.

Menos AI’s secure and domain-specific agent platform is designed for institutional-grade integration, enabling seamless use across internal and external data sources. The solution helps teams to reduce time spent from idea discovery through to research and middle-office support.
