About

The goal of Vantedge AI, formerly known as 8vdx, is to provide an Agent Marketplace of curated agents to enable investors to get an investing edge to generate alpha by leveraging AI. Our insight to build this marketplace comes from our experience from running a credit hedge fund for 15 years and as a Y Combinator backed startup, we understand the complexities of AI and are here to offer a complete infrastructure to funds and startups alike. Our platform is built to serve the investment community with the highest security, compliance, and infrastructure tailored for institutional investors.
