Redefining client-facing teams, Unique introduces a revolutionary approach to streamline operations through Generative AI. The total investment, standing now at CHF 21 million, reflects investors' confidence in generative AI and its potential impact on the financial industry.

By employing generative AI models, Unique's clients can create tailored client proposals, swiftly access regulatory compliance information, and compose personalized emails with the help of the Unique Chat function. They can also benefit from documentation automation, client conversation summarization, and recording that Unique FinanceGPT offers. This optimization of administrative processes enables them to focus on serving their clients more effectively.

The new financing round was led by VI Partners, which also included investors Daniel Gutenberg, Boris Collardi, and Young Sohn. In addition to the new funding round, Unique announced the go-live with Pictet. “We are excited to develop the Unique FinanceGPT solution with leading financial institutions. I’m particularly proud to count top names such as LGT Private Banking, Pictet Group, Partners Group, PostFinance, Die Mobiliar and Key Group, to name a few, among over 40 clients. Their trust underscores our firm commitment to aligning with the evolving needs of financial institutions, where GenAI is becoming increasingly indispensable,” said Manuel Grenacher, CEO and Co-founder of Unique.

Unique was ranked among the TOP 100 Swiss Startups in 2022 and 2023.
