Manuel Grenacher is a Swiss serial tech entrepreneur and the CEO and co-founder of Unique AG, a Zurich-based GenAI platform bringing agentic AI to the financial services industry. Known for building and exiting tech ventures—including Mila (acquired by Swisscom) and Coresystems (sold to SAP for a reported CHF 100–150 million)—Grenacher now leads Unique with a mission to transform how financial institutions automate knowledge work.
Unique enables banks and asset managers to deploy AI agents that handle tasks such as KYC, due diligence, and compliance—lowering barriers to onboarding unconventional and illiquid assets. With over $53 million in Series A funding led by CommerzVentures and DN Capital, the platform is trusted by more than 40 institutions, including Pictet, LGT, SIX, and Partners Group, representing over $2.3 trillion in assets under management.
Assetization Focus:
Agentic AI infrastructure for wealth and asset management; automating compliance, onboarding, and analysis for alternative assets.
Key Figures:
→ $53M in total funding
→ 6,000+ users at Pictet Group alone
→ $2.3T AUM supported via institutional clients
→ 25+ AI use cases across front, middle, and back office
My dream has always been to take a company public. That’s what we’re building Unique for.
