Launch YC: Gaus: Your Personal AI Investment Analyst

"Gaus supercharges research for individual investors."

TL;DR: Gaus is your personal AI investment analyst. It gives you the same market tracking, deep research, and real-time alerts that institutional investors rely on, now built for your portfolio.

Founded by Bruno Koba & Daniel Tulha Hochstetler

Hey everyone👋, meet Bruno (pictured on the right in the photo above) and Daniel (pictured on the left), the founders of Gaus.

Backstory

The founders are two Brazilian fintech builders from São Paulo.

  • Bruno was a data scientist at Nubank, building machine learning models that impacted millions, and later a fintech investor at Monashees.
  • Daniel was a software engineer at Stripe, Robinhood, and Amazon, creating production-ready AI agents and scaling systems during meme stock booms and volatile markets.

They’ve seen both sides — the institutional edge and the retail struggle — and they’re building Gaus to close that gap.

The Problem

Retail investors are fundamentally disadvantaged compared to professionals.

Institutional investors have teams of analysts tracking markets in real time, digging into data, and flagging opportunities before anyone else. Retail investors, meanwhile, have to piece together brokerages, news sites, and forums.

These tools haven’t changed in 15 years. In the U.S., 61% of adults — over 160 million people — own stocks, yet more than half say they don’t feel confident in their investment decisions.

Gaus is being built to level the playing field.

How Does It Work?

Gaus is your personal AI investment analyst. It monitors markets 24/7, filters out noise, and delivers only the insights that matter for your portfolio. That could mean:

  • Spot catalysts before they hit the mainstream: e.g., flag unusual insider activity on a stock you own hours before it trends.
  • Deliver deep, tailored research: pull together data, filings, and expert commentary into concise, decision-ready briefs on any company or theme you care about.
  • Test and validate your ideas: run “what if” scenarios and uncover supporting or contradicting market data before you act.

It’s like having a Wall Street-grade analyst in your pocket — one that never sleeps, never misses a headline, and tailors everything to your holdings.
