iFOREX Financial Trading Holdings (LSE:IFRX) announced a collaboration with financial research platform TipRanks and AI infrastructure provider WNSTN to launch an AI-powered trading assistant called Travis, integrated directly into its online and mobile multi-asset contracts for difference (CFD) platform.
Travis combines TipRanks' analyst research, market intelligence and proprietary data, including analyst ratings, insider activity, technical indicators and its Smart Score signals, with WNSTN's conversational AI technology, giving iFOREX clients a new route to research instruments and track market-moving events.
The tool is being rolled out in phases, starting with clients in South America, Asia and the Gulf region before extending to iFOREX's other markets.
iFOREX said it plans to broaden its AI capabilities over time to cover onboarding, platform assistance, educational content, company information, portfolio tools and trading support.
"The volume of information available to traders today is greater than ever, making it increasingly challenging to identify what matters most," said Itai Sadeh, chief executive of iFOREX, adding that Travis "reflects our commitment to providing clients with smarter, more intuitive ways to engage with financial markets."
The partnership lands as iFOREX pushes AI integration alongside its Middle East expansion; the company appointed Daniel Shalom as chief operating officer earlier this year specifically to support growth and AI integration, and has submitted a Category 5 licence application to the UAE Central Bank to broaden its regional footprint.
Travis is designed for market research, information gathering and trading education rather than personalised investment advice, with clients remaining responsible for their own trading decisions.
