KelAI

KelAI (Kelai) is an AI quant research platform for hedge funds and institutional investors that positions itself as an autonomous alpha engine. Its AI agents run the full systematic-research workflow — generating trading-signal ideas, writing and testing research code, analyzing market data, running backtests and validation, and monitoring live signal performance — consolidating what normally runs across siloed systems and inefficient workflows. Founded by Jeremie Cohen, a former WorldQuant portfolio manager and head of event-driven systematic strategies who also led machine learning teams at Millennium Management, KelAI is part of Y Combinator's Spring 2026 batch and is deployed with institutional investors. As an early-stage company it does not yet publish a public developer API, documentation, or SDKs.

KelAI is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Artificial Intelligence, Quantitative Finance, Hedge Funds, and Trading.
