RockFlow Secures Major Funding to Accelerate AI Agent Technology and Global Expansion
By Amit Chowdhry | Published Yesterday at 11:33 PM
Singapore-based fintech innovator RockFlow has successfully closed a new financing round reportedly worth tens of millions of U.S. dollars. The investment was led by a central global digital financial services platform and saw continued support from existing investors including Lanchi Ventures, Monolith Management, Forwest Capital, and Evergreen.
This latest round marks a pivotal step for RockFlow as the company intensifies development of its proprietary AI-powered financial agent, Bobby, and rapidly advances its international growth strategy.
Advancing AI-Driven Financial Services with Bobby
RockFlow’s flagship AI agent, Bobby, is a sophisticated large-scale financial model engineered to perform complex investment analysis and execute trading functions autonomously. The additional capital will fuel enhancements to Bobby’s capabilities, enabling it to handle increasingly complex trading scenarios with agility and precision.
The company’s recent success with RockAlpha, its AI Stock Trading Arena, proved Bobby’s robustness by testing large language models in real-world market conditions. This stress test confirmed Bobby’s ability to independently manage intricate trading strategies even amid volatile market dynamics, signaling a shift from traditional passive AI advisory tools to fully active, agentic financial decision-making.
Regulatory Approvals Pave the Way for Market Expansion
Bolstering its market presence, RockFlow’s parent group has obtained key licenses from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission. These include:
- Type 1: Dealing in Securities
- Type 4: Advising on Securities
- Type 9: Asset Management
These regulatory approvals allow RockFlow to provide regulated financial services within Hong Kong, laying the groundwork for expansion into other major financial centers.
Ambitious Product Expansion and Vision
RockFlow envisions evolving into an ‘All In One’ financial platform that blends traditional equity trading with emerging asset classes such as cryptocurrencies, Real World Assets, and private equity. The company plans to diversify its product portfolio, exploring new verticals like brokerage services, trusts, stablecoins, and digital banking.
Currently, RockFlow serves users across more than 40 countries, supporting US and Hong Kong stock trading through features like Auto DIP, simplified options trading, and copy trading. Following Bobby’s official launch in 2025, RockFlow positions itself as the pioneer behind the world’s first financial AI agent designed to guide users through the entire investment lifecycle using natural language.
Leadership Insights and Investor Confidence
Founder and CEO Vakee Lai emphasized the transformative potential of AI in financial services:
"AI Agents are fundamentally reshaping the entry point and user experience for financial services. Our mission is to make investing simple, smart, and fun. We are building an interface where complex, professional financial services become accessible and personalized through AI, all while adhering to strict global compliance standards."
Lanchi Ventures, a key backer, echoed this optimism:
"We invest in AI that brings professional depth to mass markets. RockFlow’s ‘All-in-One’ platform and Bobby AI perfectly embody this vision. We remain bullish on their expertise at the intersection of finance and AI Agents as they scale globally."
Looking Ahead
With this fresh infusion of capital and recent regulatory milestones, RockFlow is well-positioned to push the boundaries of AI-driven financial technology. The company aims to democratize access to advanced financial services worldwide, offering users an intelligent, user-friendly platform powered by cutting-edge AI.
