Hurricane Capital Acquires Kiyomi AI, Expanding Its AI-Driven Trading Capabilities

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hurricane Capital, a global asset management firm focused on the continual advancement of AI innovation in finance, today announced the acquisition of Kiyomi AI, a next-generation portfolio intelligence layer designed to support institutional finance workflows. This acquisition follows Hurricane Capital’s strategic investment in Transient.AI in 2025 and marks an important incremental step in its mission to redefine institutional trading through artificial intelligence.

Kiyomi AI was originally developed by Jacob Koenig, former Head of Taiwan Execution Services at Goldman Sachs. The platform leverages a foundation of robust institutional trading knowledge and market-structure expertise, offering what we believe is a unique ability to assist in identifying patterns and drivers incorporating a blend of domain insight and advanced AI capabilities.

⁠“I am thrilled to be partnering with Hurricane Capital and Transient.AI to bring Kiyomi AI to life,” said Koenig. “Kiyomi means “Pure Sight” in Japanese, and that’s exactly what we’re building: an awareness layer that cuts through the noise to show you what’s actually moving your book and why. Hurricane’s technology is years ahead of the industry, and Kiyomi is a showcase of what’s possible when deep market expertise meets cutting-edge AI.”

With this acquisition, Kiyomi AI will be embedded at the core of Transient.AI -https://transient.ai/, powered by its proprietary Declarative AI framework—creating a new standard for execution intelligence. Transient.AI will deliver institutional-grade governance, security, and data control while enabling seamless interoperability and massively scalable AI model orchestration.

Kiyomi AI will be offered as part of the Transient.AI SaaS suite, introducing an intelligence layer designed to support indicative, AI-driven trading capabilities in the near future. Transient AI SaaS becomes an even more powerful product suite for Fund Managers of any size across a myriad of asset classes.

The addition of Kiyomi AI further underscores Hurricane Capital’s commitment to leveraging and integrating advanced technologies designed to enhance global fund performance. By combining institutional-grade AI with deep trading acumen, Hurricane continues to differentiate itself in the industry through its investments in the evolution of data-driven asset management.
