Titan is the rebel challenger in a very old industry: wealth management. The present era is dominated by ancient players like Fidelity, Schwab, and Goldman Sachs. The problem is that none of them were built on modern rails, and their antiquated user experiences reflect that reality. There have been new things built in the modern age (think: “investing apps”), but they are either 1) gimmicky casinos (DIY trading apps) or 2) sleepy commodities (vanilla robo advisors). We won’t say names. But why hasn’t anyone built a modern Goldman Sachs for everyone? That’s our mission.
We are fighters at heart. We fight to build products that are truly democratized. For example, we launched the first institutional-grade cash management product for everyday investors with Titan Smart Cash. We launched the first ever venture fund for everyday investors in partnership with Cathie Wood’s ARK. We’ve been able to raise significant capital from some of Silicon Valley’s best, like a16z and General Catalyst, which we’re now using to disrupt the status quo and build the best wealth management firm in history.
Now let’s talk about you. We’re highly selective with who we choose to bring onto the team, but if you resonate with the above, we’d love to meet you.
