Insights

Range's $28M Series B funding marks a significant development in the WealthTech sector, with their AI-powered platform disrupting traditional wealth management. The company's growth metrics are impressive - managing $3B in assets from 1,000+ high-net-worth clients and experiencing 20% monthly membership growth. Their AI engine 'Rai' claims to deliver advice 10-20x faster while reducing fees by 75-90%.

The flat-fee pricing model, contrasting with traditional percentage-based fees, could be particularly disruptive to incumbent wealth management firms. The total funding of $40M and backing from notable investors like Cathay Innovation and Gradient Ventures validates their business model and technology approach. However, the ambitious claim that 95% of the population will use such platforms within a decade should be viewed with healthy skepticism.

The wealth management industry is witnessing a seismic shift, and Range is at the forefront of this transformation," said Fahad Hassan, co-founder and CEO of Range. "Within 10 years, 95 percent of the population will rely on a trusted platform like Range.

In less than two years, Range attracted more than 1,000 high-net-worth members and now advises them on nearly $3 billion in assets. The new capital will fuel Range's ambitious expansion plans, accelerating product development and scaling its engineering teams to enhance its AI-powered platform.
