Aikido Finance

Great product.

Automated investing on steriods with AI.

Aikido has been rebranded STRATxAI and has just sent out an email (on 22 Dec 2023) to all the Appsumo LTD users that they are stopping the personal investing service in Feb 2024. History, the platform started as Aikido on Appsumo, and had rebranded themselves earlier this year (2023) to STRATxAI. After the transition, the engagement on discord channel plummeted as they started to shift towards B2B offerings. Today, they had announced that they are shutting down the personal investing service after having used AppSumo to bootstrap their business and get it going, and dropped the people who had supported their development. The running period is just over 1-2 years after they have stopped the offer on Appsumo. This is a demonstration of bad faith, and also their terrible business ethics. Within hours of their announcement of stopping the personal investing services, they had without notice deleted their discord channel and mutliple other social media channels - another demonstration of their (lack of) trustworthiness.

I purchased their LTD on Appsumo as Aikido Finance. THey rebranded to STRATxAI. And now they are back stabbing they early adopters like myself by deleting the very product we purchased. DO NOT TRUST this company. AVOID them, because as they say once a scammer always a scammer.

Very sad and disappointed with STRATxAI (Aikido)... No more access...

Ditched thier early investors/beta testers from appsumo. Now rebranding. Thinks they would get away of this shady practice. How can this company be about financials when they cant project thier own finances. Does thier early users are so costly to keep up thier services, if so no financial analysis was done before they went to appsumo. Hmm...

Utterly speechless. Forfeited their business obligations over the lifetime deal offered during their launch. I work in tech, server cost won't cost much if they own the base code. Guessed their software is 3rd party and they are not profiting to even sustain the cheap server cost. lol. Quant my ass. I'd advise corporates to avoid using these guys. Won't be surprised if they ran away with your money. Run if you see these guys.

They started as Aikido on Appsumo, now after rebranding to StratxAI, they had promised to keep our plans and migrated us to the new platform, now they have decided to shutdown the service for personal investing. The email will follow this - Dear Quant Investing Community, Today, we're reaching out with important news that we will be discontinuing our personal investing service in 2024. The investing landscape has evolved and changed over the past few years and we have evolved with it, developing more specialised elements and higher touch features. Despite enthusiastic early adoption by personal investors, it no longer makes sense for us to compete in the consumer market. We want to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for being a part of our quant investing community. Your enthusiasm and support have been invaluable to us on this journey. The decision to discontinue our personal investing service was not made lightly. From the very beginning, our founders set out to democratize investing, and while we may be closing one chapter, our commitment to breaking boundaries in the world of finance remains unwavering.

STRATxAI, formerly known as Aikido, announced on December 22, 2023, that they will discontinue their personal investing service in February 2024. Initially launched on Appsumo as Aikido, the company rebranded in 2023 and shifted focus to B2B, leading to decreased engagement on their Discord channel. This decision comes barely 1-2 years after they ceased their offer on Appsumo, a move seen as betraying the trust of their early supporters and reflecting poorly on their business ethics. Shortly after announcing the shutdown of their personal investing service, STRATxAI abruptly deleted their Discord and several other social media channels, further questioning their trustworthiness.
