Acuity Trading has entered into a co-integration agreement with US-based AI engagement firm WNSTN, embedding its market and event intelligence data into WNSTN’s conversational chatbot and compliance monitoring solutions, the companies announced on Wednesday.
The move comes just one day after Acuity revealed a separate equity investment in New York-based startup MarketReader, which specializes in generating real-time explanations for market movements.
Taken together, the back-to-back deals underscore a clearer strategic direction for the London-headquartered firm, which is increasingly integrating third-party AI capabilities into its existing intelligence ecosystem rather than developing each component internally. The approach reflects a broader industry shift toward modular AI stacks that can be rapidly deployed across brokerage and trading platforms.
Acuity already distributes its Trade Intelligence, Market Intelligence, and Event Intelligence offerings through widely used platforms such as MT4, MT5, and cTrader, as well as via widgets and APIs. The partnership with WNSTN introduces a conversational, chat-first interface layered on top of these services, alongside a compliance monitoring module designed to meet regulatory requirements. This addition follows closely on the heels of the MarketReader investment, which brought real-time market attribution capabilities into Acuity’s expanding toolkit.
The company has also recently moved into automated chart pattern recognition, placing it in more direct competition with established rival Autochartist after previously conceding ground in that segment. The rapid sequence of integrations highlights Acuity’s ambition to evolve into a comprehensive, all-in-one AI-driven intelligence provider for brokers and trading platforms.
Andrew Lane, CEO of Acuity Trading, said brokers are increasingly seeking tools that provide greater clarity at critical decision-making moments. He noted that combining Acuity’s market intelligence with WNSTN’s personalized engagement layer is intended to enhance user experience and improve trading outcomes.
WNSTN, co-founded by Roy Michaeli and Jamie Rakover, offers a multi-agent financial AI system that can be deployed by brokers as a branded, in-platform chatbot. A key element of its offering is a proprietary compliance officer module trained on financial regulations, designed to monitor AI-generated outputs for potential regulatory risks. The firm has already established a presence in the brokerage sector, positioning itself as a provider of compliant, conversational AI solutions tailored to financial services.
