Kaiko
Regulated institutional digital-asset market data provider
About Kaiko
Finance is moving onchain. Stocks, funds, bonds and cash are being tokenized, settlement is getting close to instant, and markets are starting to trade around the clock. That shift only works if every participant can trust the data it runs on.
Kaiko is that trusted data partner. Banks, asset managers, exchanges, market makers, fund administrators and regulators use us to price, trade, value, manage risk and report as markets become digital, global and always on.
What we do:
Market data: institutional-grade trade and order-book data from traditional, digital and onchain venues, normalized into one reliable source.
Analytics: liquidity, market structure, derivatives and onchain insight that turn raw data into decisions.
Indices and reference rates: transparent, rules-based 24/7 benchmarks and continuous pricing used to value portfolios, mark collateral and build investment products.
Data infrastructure: resilient, always-on delivery through APIs, cloud, partner channels and AI-ready access, built into the systems our clients already use.
In September 2026, Kaiko extended its Series B to $110M, led by S&P Global, with BNP Paribas, Bpifrance, Broadridge, Canton, Coinbase Ventures, DRW Venture Capital, Nasdaq Ventures, Royal Bank of Canada, Stellar, and Susquehanna. This year we also acquired Amberdata and Cometh, which broadens our analytics, data and onchain capabilities. Kaiko is SOC 1 and SOC 2 certified and MiCA- and DORA-compliant: the standards institutions expect from a critical data provider.
