Every AI agent demo dies the moment real money gets involved. AI can plan the trip, add the right items to your shopping cart, even draft an invoice perfectly, but then has to wait for a human to enter payment details. Because nobody gave the agent a way to access or move money.
Airwallex is solving for this with Airi, a secure wallet that agents can spend from, and T:ZERO, a finance function that runs itself.
Congrats to the Airwallex team on the raise!
Jack Zhang (@awxjack): We’ve raised $320M at an $11B valuation, led by Addition.
AI is changing how companies are built. Teams are smaller, global from day one, and using agents more. We’ve spent 10 years building the financial rails for that world.
We’re now building the intelligent layer on top.
