However, this has dramatically increased the need for reliable, unbiased, and objective financial advice. Our future vision is to work closely with TipRanks to create a super app enabling investors to trade in various ways including Equities and ETFs all in one simple place.”
Prytek mentioned that the latest funding will enable TipRanks to expand its technological capabilities. The group added that TipRanks will be able to take advantage of Prytek’s solution suite.

“Our platform is driven by smart technologies to help millions of investors evaluate ideas and make data-driven decisions. Through our partnership with Prytek, we will create and acquire more exclusive datasets that will give retail investors a real edge. We will also expand our coverage to other asset classes and markets including crypto and ETFs,” Uri Gruenbaum, Co-Founder and CEO of TipRanks said in the official press release.
