Syfe Rolls Out AI Tool That Picks US Stocks Based on Market Themes

Singapore-based investment platform Syfe has launched an AI-powered feature that lets retail investors build custom stock portfolios around specific market themes and events, without needing hours of research or access to bank analysts.

Called Curate with AI, the tool lets users enter topics such as AI infrastructure, emerging biotech companies, or World Cup sponsors. It then scans market data, news, and company filings to identify relevant US-listed stocks, assigning each a relevance score. Users can select the stocks, set their own allocations, or let the platform decide weightings based on market capitalisation.

The launch expands on Syfe's existing Bundles — pre-packaged baskets of stocks or ETFs based on themes like AI Revolution, Space Exploration, and Gold. Unlike Bundles, Curate with AI is dynamic: users define their own theme rather than picking from a fixed list. Fractional shares let users invest without buying whole shares, and Syfe charges no additional fee for the feature beyond standard brokerage.

Why it matters for Singapore: Syfe, one of Singapore's best-known digital wealth managers, is betting that AI-powered portfolio construction — once reserved for institutional investors — becomes the new norm for retail investors here. The move signals how Singapore fintechs are weaving AI into the investment experience at a time when a growing number of local investors are already using AI tools for research but still relying on human advisers for final decisions.
