OUR FOUNDATION -It started as an experiment
Telescope began as an experimental portfolio tracking tool, designed to connect investors with shared views on the future.
We tested our AI engine with "a run on the banks." It generated a balanced portfolio with Treasury Bonds, Tier 1 banks, Gold, Crypto, and other assets.
"It was in this moment we realised, this platform can be used for any scenario. Any event. Fact or fiction.", Luc Pettett, Founder.
That experiment taught us the potential of AI in finance. Today we help institutions harness that potential responsibly, with architecture built to evolve alongside AI capabilities.
