How does Kraken's AI investing assistant work?

Kraken uses AI to suggest investments based on a user's financial goals, risk level and financial profile. Users must approve every trade before it is placed.

Can Kraken's AI place trades automatically?

No. Kraken's AI can recommend trades, but it cannot execute them on its own. Every transaction requires the user's approval.

What financial goals can Kraken's AI help with?

Kraken lets users set goals such as buying a home, saving for retirement or building an emergency fund. The AI then tailors investment suggestions to those goals.

What new features does Kraken's app include?

Kraken's updated app provides personalised portfolio updates, market insights and investment recommendations. It also adjusts the user experience based on each investor's profile.

Which other companies offer AI investing tools?

Coinbase, OKX and Revolut have also launched AI-powered investing and trading tools. Like Kraken, they require users to approve trades before execution.

Kraken is launching an AI investing assistant that suggests investments based on each user's goals, risk level and financial profile.

Users can set goals such as buying a home, saving for retirement or building an emergency fund before receiving personalised recommendations.

"There's an opportunity for everyday people to become high-frequency traders and do so using plain English," said Kraken Chief Data Officer Kamo Asatryan.

Kraken said the AI watches markets, finds opportunities and suggests trades, but it cannot place orders without the user's approval.

The app also provides personalised portfolio updates and investment ideas based on each user's holdings.

Other companies, including Coinbase, OKX and Revolut, have also introduced AI tools for investing and trading.

Kraken said the new app is part of its plan to offer more financial services beyond cryptocurrency trading.
