Avo Update: Closed Beta Live + Big Vision for Trading Agents

Hey all!

Here’s your March/April update from avo, the marketplace for crypto trading agents.

---

Quick Asks:

Demo Opportunities (SF/Vancouver): We recently launched the closed beta of our webapp and are actively looking for opportunities to demo avo live at startup events, pitch nights, or crypto meetups in SF or Vancouver. If you know of any upcoming events or organizers we should connect with, we’d love an intro!

Trading Agent Builders: Know anyone building trading agents right now? We'd love to support them; they can join our early marketplace by signing up here: Waitlist

Our Story & Vision

• We believe the next bull run will be driven not by ICOs, NFTs, or memecoins but by trading agents. These are agents powered by everything from market sentiment to on-chain signals, tweets, and macroeconomic news.

• PhDs and quant traders are already building powerful agents. But there’s no clear distribution channel, and that’s where avo comes in.

• Our goal: become the aggregator platform for all trading agents, and eventually build agents custom-fit to users’ risk profiles, preferences, and behaviors on the platform.

• Think:

• Agents LLMs (to find trading signals) → MCP Server → Agentic Wallet (to execute trades)

• Avo becomes the interface and trust layer for this new world of agentic trading

Highlights:

• Listed on The Peak’s Emerging Leaders 2025

• Launched our closed beta webapp

  • Inviting 20–30 new users every 1-2 weeks

  • Iterating based on feedback until we hit the “we love this, I’m telling my friends” moment

  • Public launch + paid marketing will follow once that product-market fit is loud and clear

Lowlights:

We collaborated with KOLs on YouTube, which brought in 6K+ users — but most churned.

Hard lesson: virality means little if the product doesn’t retain. We’re now laser-focused on:

• Building network effects into the app (referrals, points, social loops)

• Refining the product before scaling distribution

Thanks as always for being part of the journey. Let us know if you have ideas, intros, or feedback. We’d love to hear from you.
