VantedgeAI
Y Combinator backed platform of expert agents for credit and investment analysis, plus an Agent Marketplace and SDK for institutional investors.
VantedgeAI, formerly 8vdx, is a Y Combinator backed platform that scales investing workflows with AI, centered on credit and investment analysis for institutional investors. Its flagship credit product gives funds an expanding suite of expert agents, each designed to tackle a specific workflow challenge in credit analysis, working from one unified dashboard. Users submit financial, legal, or client documents, including Excel, PDF, and presentations, and the platform parses, validates, and organizes the information into industry standard templates or custom models, then automatically builds financial models, computes deal attributes, benchmarks risk factors, and generates valuation summaries directly from the provided data. Teammates can review, comment on, and refine outputs and share polished summaries and memos with investment committees or clients from within the platform. Alongside the credit product, VantedgeAI runs an Agent Marketplace with a secure data layer and compliance framework where AI startups integrate agents through an SDK to serve institutional investors, and it offers enterprise AI infrastructure so businesses can deploy AI workloads in their own cloud. The company was co founded by a team with roots running a credit hedge fund for fifteen years.

Pricing
Not public. VantedgeAI serves institutional investors and funds through an enterprise motion; funds reach out directly to try the platform, and the Agent Marketplace is waitlisted.
Institutional and enterprise engagement; document and model usage scale with analysis volume.
Included quota
Not public.
Cost watchouts
Document parsing and model building scale with deal and portfolio volume; model inference is bundled but undisclosed; own cloud infrastructure if self deployed.
Variable cost rationale
Document parsing, model building, and expert agent runs scale with deal and portfolio volume, and model inference is undisclosed, so cost grows with analysis workload.
