Silicon Valley Startup Hyperplane Acquired by Nubank  to Improve Banking Services with AI

Nubank, a leading digital banking platform, announced its acquisition of Hyperplane, a data intelligence company based in Silicon Valley. This strategic move aims to bring more advanced, personalized financial products and services to Nubank's customer base.

Hyperplane, founded in 2022 by Daniel Silva, Felipe Lamounier, Rohan Ramanath, and Felipe Meneses, has developed proprietary foundation models for financial services. Their platform enables financial institutions to train, evaluate, and deploy self-supervised, deep-learning models on first-party data, facilitating decision-making across various business domains including risk assessment, collections, and marketing.

The acquisition aligns with Nubank's "AI-first" approach, which goes beyond simply connecting models or systems. By integrating Hyperplane's technology, Nubank aims to create connections between broader contexts, generate valuable insights, support decision-making, and ultimately enhance the customer experience.

David Vélez, founder and CEO of Nubank, stated, "Nubank´s mission since its founding is to fight complexity and empower fanatical customers. Our early investments in AI, coupled with the impressive infrastructure and talent that Hyperplane team has been able to put together, will accelerate our mission. Consumers globally will access not only the very best financial products but also receive truly customized financial advice that empowers them to live a better life."
