About Us

Building The World’s Most Powerful Real-Time Market Intelligence System

We are Permutable AI – a next-generation market intelligence company transforming how global institutions understand markets. Founded in 2020 by former Merrill Lynch and Citibank trader Wilson Chan, we were built on a simple realisation: the world’s markets now move faster than legacy intelligence systems can interpret. Our purpose is to redefine how financial institutions process information by delivering real-time, explainable AI that turns billions of global data points into immediate, actionable insight. Our platform powers energy, commodities, macro and multi-asset teams with intelligence that is fast, transparent and institutionally robust—bringing clarity to markets where speed and understanding matter most.

OUR MISSION

Permutable AI’s mission is to build the real-time AI world-model for global markets. We convert the full stream of global narratives – spanning policy, geopolitics, supply chains, economics and commodities – into structured, source-linked intelligence accessible instantly via API or enterprise terminal. Our vertically integrated AI architecture adapts continuously, replacing rigid legacy systems with a transparent and auditable intelligence layer that mirrors the way traders, analysts and economists interpret the world. Our mission is straightforward: deliver the clarity, speed and precision institutions need to make confident decisions in an environment defined by complexity.

OUR VISION

We believe institutional finance is entering a new era – one where explainable AI becomes foundational market infrastructure. Price alone no longer tells the story; the narrative around markets moves first. Our vision is to create the most advanced real-time intelligence system in the world, capable of understanding global events the moment they unfold, with full transparency and traceability. By combining multi-LLM architectures with deep engineering expertise, we are setting the new benchmark for how capital markets integrate sentiment, narrative and macro interpretation into everyday decision-making.

OUR FLAGSHIP SOLUTION

Permutable AI’s intelligence platform – including our Trading Co-Pilot and API suite – delivers real-time, LLM-powered market insight across commodities, currencies, macro assets and geopolitical themes. Our system ingests millions of multilingual inputs, analyses them through our adaptive multi-LLM engine, and converts them into structured signals ready for quantitative models, discretionary workflows and enterprise dashboards.

It cuts through research overload and surfaces what matters: shifting narratives, sentiment regimes, policy pressure, supply–demand dynamics and cross-commodity interactions. Engineered for transparency and speed, it provides a new intelligence layer that evolves continuously with market conditions.

What problems does Permutable solve for institutions?
Our market intelligence transforms fragmented global data flows into structured, actionable signals. By combining LLM-powered reasoning agents with capital markets expertise, we help institutions overcome the inefficiency of traditional research and the limitations of static data feeds, saving time while enhancing conviction in decision-making.
Traditional providers often deliver raw data or delayed analysis. At Permutable, we focus on price-impacting sentiment and causal intelligence, not just noise. Our signals are transparent, explainable, and designed for real-world integration into trading strategies, ensuring that institutions act on meaningful intelligence rather than information overload.
Our coverage spans commodities, currencies, and macro assets, supported by more than 120,000 global sources in multiple languages. We also provide deep sectoral coverage, including energy, agriculture, and precious metals, with sentiment overlays that capture geopolitical risk, policy changes, and macroeconomic shifts.
Yes. Our intelligence is designed for plug-and-play deployment. We offer seamless API delivery, live dashboards, and tailored executive briefings. Whether your desk is systematic or discretionary, our data can integrate directly into backtesting frameworks, trading models, and research workflows without disruption.
Both. Systematic funds integrate our data via API to design and execute models with enhanced resilience. Discretionary traders and strategists use our Trading Co-Pilot dashboards for intraday monitoring, risk assessment, and cross-asset narrative tracking. The flexibility of our platform ensures it supports multiple styles of investing.
Our clients include hedge funds, investment banks, asset managers, and corporate strategy teams. Common use cases include enhancing systematic alpha generation, improving discretionary trade timing, strengthening risk management, and providing structured foresight for treasury and supply chain decisions.
We believe transparency is essential. Each signal is traceable to its underlying data sources, and sentiment scores are tied directly to observed price impacts. This ensures institutions can understand, audit, and trust the insights driving their decisions.
We are not simply a data vendor. Permutable is an AI-first company built by practitioners with deep experience in both capital markets and applied artificial intelligence. Our leadership team has designed and deployed machine-learning trading systems inside global banks, scaled data-driven fintech solutions, and pioneered applied NLP technologies used by millions worldwide. This dual expertise means we don’t just deliver datasets – we deliver AI models engineered for institutional workflows, supported by a strong understanding of how trading desks, hedge funds, and asset managers actually operate.
Working with Permutable is not just about accessing alternative data – it’s about partnering in a broader mission to redefine how markets process intelligence. Our clients gain real-time, explainable signals that improve decision-making today, while also joining us on a journey to build the next standard of AI-powered market foresight for the best of the best. By aligning with our vision, institutions benefit from continuous innovation, deeper coverage, and intelligence that evolves in step with the complexity of global markets.
