Hello! My cofounder and I previously built and exited Paperspace, one of the first GPU clouds. After selling Paperspace, we did the “responsible” thing and tried to get our own finances dialed in.

That means one of two bad options:

• DIY: Accounts scattered everywhere. Spreadsheets are always wrong. Expensive mistakes because this wasn’t my full-time job.
• Hire an advisor: 1-2% of assets annually. I ran that math over multiple decades and realized I was handing over a massive portion of my net worth to fees.

Neither can deliver the strategies the ultra-wealthy use to compound wealth. These strategies aren’t secret – they’re just economically impossible to deliver at scale through traditional human advisors.

Robo advisors tried to automate it, but without real intelligence they hit a wall. In practice: cookie-cutter portfolios and little else.

That’s when it hit me: people everywhere are already turning to AI to answer financial questions... but there’s no Cursor-style "apply" button. It’s not connected to your money.

Meanwhile, wealth management generates ~$250B/year with human intermediaries charging massive fees. Entrenched, expensive, structurally misaligned.

It started to look a lot like brokerages right before Robinhood.

So we decided to build the missing layer.

Autonomous (becomeautonomous.com) is a superintelligent wealth manager with 0% advisory fees.

We’re doing for financial advising what Robinhood did for brokerages. Think of it as a full-stack, AI-native wealth strategist that brings billionaire-style playbooks to ordinary investors.
