Investing.com Acquires Stonki to Accelerate Its Entry into the Agentic AI Era

Published

The acquisition strengthens Investing.com’s AI capabilities, advancing a next-generation research assistant that can analyze markets, generate insights, and guide investors in real time

NEW YORK, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Investing.com, one of the world’s largest financial platforms used by more than 60 million investors each month, today announced the acquisition of Stonki, an AI-powered investing assistant designed to help traders turn ideas into structured, actionable trading plans.

The move marks a major step in the company’s evolution toward agentic AI, strengthening its ability to deliver faster, deeper, and more actionable market insights to a growing base of more than 300,000 paying subscribers across its InvestingPro suite, the company’s premium subscription offering for advanced market data, tools, and AI-driven insights.

Over the past 12 months, nearly 3 million users have used WarrenAI, Investing.com’s AI-powered financial research assistant launched last year, to perform market analysis, making AI a central entry point into the platform’s ecosystem. With the addition of Stonki, the company is moving beyond traditional AI tools toward agentic systems that can proactively guide users through the investment process.

“We’re entering the age of agentic AI, where the technology moves beyond just answering questions to actively helping investors think, analyze, and act,” said Omer Shvili, CEO of Investing.com. “Bringing Stonki.ai into the fold accelerates our goal of building an agentic platform that will serve as a 24/7 analyst for our users. We are developing this to be more than just a tool; it will be a partner that identifies opportunities, tracks unfolding situations, and surfaces trade ideas even when the user isn’t active—giving our users the kind of edge that was previously only available to professional investors.”

Founded in 2025, Stonki is developing a new category of ‘agentic’ AI for investing, enabling users to turn investment ideas into fully defined strategies with entry and exit conditions, risk management rules, and continuous monitoring.

“We started Stonki because, as investors and traders ourselves, we knew how much time and focus it takes to stay on top of the market and properly manage a day trade, a swing trade, an investment idea, or a portfolio,” said Ulas Bilgenoglu and Itay Verkh, co-founders of Stonki. “We set out to build AI that could carry part of that load by continuously monitoring the market, turning ideas into structured strategies, and helping users make better decisions with clear entry and exit conditions, disciplined risk management, and ongoing tracking. Joining Investing.com gives us the scale, data, reach, and strong AI foundation to accelerate that vision. Together, we can create an experience where AI helps users stay ahead of the market, manage risk, and act with greater confidence.”

The acquisition expands Investing.com’s AI capabilities across both technical and fundamental investing workflows. Stonki’s technology is built around persistent, real-time intelligence, continuously monitoring markets, tracking user-defined strategies, and alerting investors when conditions align, rather than relying on one-off prompts or static analysis.

For active traders, the platform is evolving into a real-time analysis engine designed to support high-frequency decision-making with precision and speed. For long-term investors, it is becoming a central hub for research, enabling users to evaluate opportunities, set personalized alerts, and monitor portfolios based on their individual investment strategies.

Users will be able to define specific conditions, such as a stock crossing a long-term moving average, and have the AI continuously monitor the market, analyze relevant signals, and surface actionable insights in real time. The system will also review portfolios on an ongoing basis, helping investors avoid potential losses and uncover new opportunities aligned with their strategy.

This latest step builds on Investing.com’s broader strategy of expanding its AI-powered suite, including WarrenAI, ProPicks AI, and its recently launched AI Chart Analysis, all aimed at delivering faster, more accurate and more actionable insights to investors.

SHANGHAI, Aug. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hosted within the IMCAS China Conference venue at W Shanghai – The Bund, Singclean 2nd International Medical Aesthetic Leaders Summit themed “Global Vision, Embark on a New Chapter” came to a successful conclusion.

Gathering top global doctors and industry partners, the summit built a cross-border professional dialogue platform. Experts delivered in-depth speeches on Singfiller and Singderm dermal fillers, covering injection techniques, aesthetic solutions and raw material quality control, charting pathways toward standardized and high-quality industry development.

Precision Shaping in Three Key Zones

Dr. Zhu Yuan, a leading Chinese skeletal aesthetics expert, shared precision injection strategy for comprehensive aesthetic design, focusing on shoulder reshaping, tear trough plumping and lip augmentation. She proposed an innovative combined technique to balance contour beauty and dynamic naturality.

Praising Singfiller, she noted its stable shaping, natural resilience and excellent compatibility with collagen and regenerative materials, fully meeting dynamic aesthetic needs.

Customized Plans via Four-Dimensional Assessment

Dr. Diogo Melo, a renowned Brazilian plastic surgeon, introduced full-face hyaluronic acid treatment based on a four-dimensional facial assessment of chronological stage, facial pattern, skeletal profile and treatment timeline. He emphasized abandoning stereotyped treatments and standardized phased procedures.

He affirmed that Singderm’s superior support and deformation resistance perfectly adapts to the needs of different diagnostic and treatment stages—including skeletal reconstruction, volume augmentation, and fine micro-adjustments—helping to achieve long-lasting, natural, and individualized aesthetic outcomes.

Raw-Material Excellence as Quality Foundation

Mr. Antoine Clavier-Choo, Chief Commercial Officer APAC, HTL Biotechnology-a global leader in pharma-grade biopolymers, underscored the raw material quality behind Singfiller and Singderm—drawing directly from HTL’s HA supply. Sourced from French facilities under stringent international pharmaceutical regulations, it is produced via proprietary fermentation and multi-stage purification to yield high-purity fibers.

With more than 30 years of zero batch recalls and manufacturing operations regularly audited by leading healthcare companies worldwide, HTL delivers fibers with consistent quality and reliability.

Looking Ahead

The summit marks a key milestone in Singclean’s globalization and academic development. Moving forward, Singclean will deepen global supply chain cooperation, prioritize technological innovation and clinical academia, build an open cross-border exchange platform for physicians, and deliver high-standard aesthetic services to boost the sustainable and innovative development of the global medical aesthetics industry.
