Almanak provides a comprehensive suite for AI-driven DeFi: a framework to ideate, simulate, backtest, and deploy autonomous trading and yield strategies as on-chain agents. The platform aims to democratize institutional-grade quantitative strategies, letting users run AI 'swarms' of agents that manage DeFi positions while retaining human-AI hybrid control for oversight. Almanak reported strong early traction, including a peak vault TVL in the hundreds of millions and substantial annualized vault revenue. Founded by a team drawn from quantitative trading firms and global technology companies, Almanak combines rigorous strategy simulation with autonomous execution across DeFi protocols. It raised $8.45M in 2025 from a deep bench of crypto investors including Delphi Labs, HashKey Capital, and the NEAR Foundation, plus earlier ICO rounds, positioning it in the AI-trading-meets-DeFi segment of the crypto-AI landscape.
