Astro.io

We believe in challenging the status quo. Investing in financial markets should be understandable for everyone to shape their own future while influencing our society. Astro is the next-gen investment app and the bike with training wheels for financial markets. We empower people to diversify their portfolios on their terms - all personalized and visualized. With a seamless app experience, we put professional investment tools in the hands of everyone to get a fair chance at leveraging the wealth creation effect of financial markets. Today, Astro is developing the user experience and the technologies to have more people impact our future through investments (capital allocations). Investing in financial markets is one of the best tools for individual wealth creation. But to most people, it is overwhelming to understand the technicalities of financial markets and the associated risk. Before Astro, people had to make sense of financial markets by themselves, often leading them to financial losses or standing on the sidelines with little chance of improving their financial conditions. We're a young dynamic team that values people, excellence, disruption, transparency, intuitiveness, and fun. We care about people and enjoy social activities with the team and our customers.
