AIR Trading is building an AI-powered data and trading system that ingests, analyses, learns, adapts, and executes trading strategies across global markets.
Today’s financial systems are more complex and data-rich than ever, creating ideal conditions for AI to learn continuously from shifting trends. Designed from the ground up, AIR Trading’s deep learning, self-optimizing platform finds signals and trading opportunities out of reach of human traders.
By combining rich, real-time data with advanced ML and AI models attuned to market microstructure, the platform can anticipate short-term price movements and execute trades in fractions of a second, drawing on patterns in order flow, volume, and pricing behavior. Over time, AIR’s system will integrate data from all major exchanges, powering an expanding set of adaptive strategies designed for modern markets.
Headquartered in Sydney, AIR is currently focused on Asia’s fragmented, fast-moving exchanges.
The company was founded by Grant Brits and Tim Blundy. An Olympic swimming medallist, Grant is an experienced operator with deep expertise in quantitative finance and the founder of Superestate, acquired by ASX-listed Raiz in 2021. Previously Chief Data Scientist at Raiz and a team leader at Optiver, Tim is a seasoned market practitioner with a strong background in trading and technology.
