Welcome to GeFi

Why we're building a marketplace for AI financial models — and what's live, what's next, and what we're still arguing about.

We started GeFi because none of the existing AI marketplaces are structured to serve a regulated financial-services buyer. They sell you a model. They don’t tell you where the training data came from, where the inference ran, or how to prove either to your regulator.

So we built one that does.

What’s live today

  • Marketplace — the catalogue is small but real. Five featured models across NLP, optimisation, credit risk, fraud, and trade finance.
  • Audit log — every inference is hash-chained and Merkle-anchored daily. Spec is on GitHub.
  • Federated training — two production federations (Credit Oracle and Portfolio Optimiser) with 41 combined institutional participants.
  • Compliance routing — KYC tiers and per-jurisdiction counsel are live for US, UK, EU, and UAE.

What’s next

  • More models. Macro Nowcast comes out of beta in Q3. Treasury liquidity model and ESG attribution model are in private alpha.
  • MAS and FINMA. Singapore and Switzerland counsel onboarding starts this quarter.
  • Sovereign tenants. OVH SecNumCloud and Infomaniak deployments are in staging.
  • Public trust portal. trust.gefi.io goes live with the SOC 2 Type I report.

What we’re still arguing about

  • Onchain payouts as the default. It’s cleaner for global developer payouts; it’s a UX cliff for fiat-only buyers. We’re shipping both rails and watching what people use.
  • Open-sourcing the model evaluation harness. We want to. We don’t want to do it before it’s clean. Probably Q4.
  • A native EU Cloud Region beyond Cloudflare. Cloudflare’s EU region is good. It is not “we run on a SecNumCloud-qualified provider” good. The Enterprise tier ships with that option; the question is whether we make it the default for EU paid tenants.

If any of this is interesting, you can request early access (the self-serve sign-up at app.gefi.io opens with our next release) or book a demo. If it’s very interesting, we’re hiring.
