According to reports from NeoSoul, the company has successfully completed an $11 million Pre-Series A funding round announced on August 20, 2026. The funding round included participation from Amber Group, ArkStream Capital, MH Ventures, CatcherVC, 0G Foundation, and Kirin Capital. The new capital will support the continued development of NeoSoul's agentic trading products and broader AI economy infrastructure. As reported by multiple sources, several investors in this round stated that as AI agents begin participating in real economic activities, fund utilization, trade execution, and risk control are emerging as new infrastructure needs. NeoSoul has already operationalized Agentic Trading as a ready-to-use product through NeoTrade, laying the foundation for expanding broader AI economic infrastructure.
As reported by NeoSoul, the funding follows the launch of NeoTrade, the company's intelligent contract trading platform. NeoTrade allows traders to configure AI trading agents that can autonomously make trading decisions and execute onchain transactions while maintaining capital controls and fund security. The platform represents NeoSoul's entry point into the autonomous AI economic activity space, where AI agents can participate in economic activity at scale. The company stated that trading volume is expected to rise as the platform scales, indicating strong growth potential for the AI agent trading infrastructure. AI is evolving from auxiliary analysis to independent execution, with the industry's focus shifting toward how to maintain agent autonomy while ensuring controlled and secure fund management.
According to NeoSoul, the company ranks 3rd on DappBay's 30-day AI Infrastructure ranking list as of August 20, 2026, and is the highest-ranked AI Agent market infrastructure on the list. Kaelan, Co-Founder of NeoSoul, stated that AI is transitioning from producing information to engaging in autonomous economic activities, with trading being one of the earliest scenarios capable of forming a complete economic loop. The company plans to use proceeds to deepen NeoTrade's product stack, strengthen trading infrastructure, and expand its global ecosystem, with the team focused on connecting autonomous AI decision-making with secure, controlled execution of funds in live trading environments. NeoSoul is the largest emerging AI economic infrastructure on the BNB Chain and 0G ecosystems, dedicated to accelerating the development of the AI economy.
As reported by NeoSoul, the round brings together investors spanning digital assets, Web3 infrastructure, decentralized AI, and capital markets across Asia and North America. Kirin Capital, a key investor with long-standing presence in Vietnam and Southeast Asia, will support NeoSoul's expansion across Vietnam and the broader Southeast Asian market. The investors noted that as AI agents begin participating in real economic activity, capital controls, trade execution, and risk management are emerging as critical infrastructure requirements, with the funding specifically targeting the development of foundational support for AI agents to participate at scale in economic activities. MH Ventures is a venture capital fund and infrastructure partner focused on the cryptocurrency space, dedicated to supporting the next generation of decentralized systems, providing founders validation, liquidity, and strategic guidance to help build resilient and scalable Web3 protocols.
