Built for your firm, not for the market.
Software built for everyone is built perfectly for no one.
The majority of software sold to financial firms is created to solve a common problem for thousands of customers. Which is the right business model for the vendor, but far from ideal for the customer. You want software that works 100% of the time for you, not software that works 75% of the time for everyone.
At River Technologies, we focus on building custom software from scratch for financial firms. This could be software that replaces existing software or new software that’s only been made possible with the capabilities AI brings to the table.
We chose to focus on finance because we believe finance has the highest nominal value of productivity left to unlock at scale.
To date, we’ve worked across the financial landscape and have engaged with global investment banks, fundamental and quantitative hedge funds, alternative asset managers, and sovereign wealth funds.
Confidentiality is at the forefront of our work. We never share information about clients or the work we’ve done without explicit permission.
We have raised $9.5 million from Founders Fund, Also Capital, Petra, Timeless, Bungalow, and the Vanderbilt Endowment.
We are a lean team built around low ego and high ownership.
Our office is in New York City, at the heart of the institutions we serve.
If any part of this resonated, don’t hesitate to reach out.
