EquiLibre Technologies Raises Series A Round led by Creandum

The funding round was led by Creandum and is reportedly the firm's largest investment so far.

The company will use most of the funding to buy more computing power and build one of the largest AI compute clusters in the region.

Martin Schmid, co-founder of EquiLibre, says: “Trading is one of the few fields where technology is the entire game. There’s no sales cycle, and no marketing spend can rescue a weak product. The market is the judge, and the verdict updates every millisecond. That’s what drew us to the problem, and it’s why reinforcement learning is such a natural fit. The question is no longer whether this approach works. It’s how big it can get. We’ve proven the technology in the world’s biggest and most liquid markets.”

“We want to build a global business from Prague. We are by far the most exciting company working on the frontier of applied AI research here, and this allows us to attract and retain amazing talent. Our ambitions are global, and we aim to build the world’s leading AI trading company,” adds Martin.

Cameron Sellers, Vice President at Creandum, says: “This is the largest investment we have ever made, showing the belief that we have in the future scaling of the technology. EquiLibre is doing what the best frontier labs do: picking a domain where the feedback loop is brutal and honest, and letting the technology speak for itself. Martin and the team have proven the approach in the hardest possible environment. We’re thrilled to back them as they scale.“

EquiLibre Technologies was founded in 2022 by researchers from DeepMind and the team behind DeepStack, the first AI system to beat professional players in no-limit poker.

The company first tested its AI technology in the cryptocurrency market before expanding into traditional financial markets. In early 2025, EquiLibre started using its reinforcement learning AI agents to trade some of the world's largest financial markets.

According to the company, its AI agents now handle billions of dollars in trades every day and have never recorded a negative month since going live.
