As global retail investment participation reaches 300 million investors worldwide, a new AI-driven platform is stepping in to address the universal investment research crisis. AssetWorks, co-founded by Ramalingam Subramanian (ex-CoinDCX) and Suresh Victor (ex-Caption Fresh, CoinDCX), launched its public beta in August as the world's first AI-native investment intelligence platform designed to help
everyday investors make informed decisions in under 60 seconds, starting with India's 185 million demat accounts.Built to serve the mobile-first, information-hungry investor generation globally, the platform uses generative AI to deliver real-time, data-backed insights across multiple asset classes in a conversational format. Since launch, the platform has attracted 600 active users who have created over 2,000 research reports across multiple asset classes, including stocks, mutual funds, bonds, crypto, ETFs, and alternative investments. The early traction demonstrates strong product-market fit among digitally-native investors globally seeking unified research solutions all under one roof.
"The problem isn't the desire to invest wisely - it's the impossible choice between endless research and unverified advice on social media. This challenge affects 300 million retail investors globally. We're solving this with a platform that delivers institutional-grade intelligence with consumer-grade simplicity. With AssetWorks, investors no longer have to choose between slow research and risky speculation; they can make confident decisions, instantly," said Ramalingam Subramanian, Founder and CEO of AssetWorks, and former Head of Marketing at CoinDCX, who scaled the platform to 13 million users.
The founding team brings deep fintech experience, having helped build and scale India's first crypto unicorn. Co-founder Suresh Victor, who previously led product at both CoinDCX and agritech unicorn Captain Fresh, said, "The motivation behind AssetWorks came from watching millions of users globally struggle with fragmented tools and unreliable sources. We wanted to rebuild the research experience from the ground up powered by AI and shaped around the needs of the everyday investor."
AssetWorks positions itself not as a trading app or professional terminal, but as the missing intelligence layer between data and decision-making for global retail investors. By transforming what was once a multi-platform, multi-hour research ordeal into a unified 60-second experience across all major asset classes, the platform aims to redefine how the world's retail investors interact with financial markets.
The move addresses a universal challenge where retail participation is booming worldwide, yet research capabilities haven't kept pace. In India alone, according to SEBI's 2024 study of 10 million traders, 93% of derivatives investors lose money, with aggregate losses surpassing ₹1.8 lakh crore over three years. Despite the global appetite to invest, most individuals face a harsh reality of research that is either too slow, too complex, or entirely absent.
