DeFi intelligence startup Otomato has secured $2 million in funding from Improbable to accelerate development of its real-time on-chain monitoring and alerting platform.
The company is building an intelligence layer for decentralised finance designed to help users track positions, manage risk, and monitor activity across multiple blockchain ecosystems without relying on fragmented dashboards and manual monitoring tools.
Building A Real-Time Intelligence Layer For DeFi
As DeFi ecosystems continue expanding across chains and protocols, users increasingly manage positions spread across lending markets, decentralised exchanges, NFTs, stablecoins, and prediction platforms.
Otomato aims to simplify that complexity through a unified monitoring system that automatically analyses wallet activity and delivers high-priority alerts in real time.
Once users connect a wallet address, the platform identifies positions across supported protocols and continuously tracks relevant on-chain events including liquidations, interest rate changes, stablecoin depegs, and market volatility.
The system currently supports networks including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, and HyperEVM.
Unlike traditional alert systems that often overwhelm users with excessive notifications, Otomato focuses on filtering data to surface only meaningful events requiring attention.
Growing Organically Across The DeFi Ecosystem
The platform initially launched as a Telegram bot and has since grown organically to more than 2,000 users, with over 1,500 actively receiving alerts.
Otomato already integrates with more than 10 major DeFi protocols, including Aave, Pendle, Uniswap, Morpho, Euler, and Hyperliquid.
The new funding will be used to expand protocol coverage, strengthen multi-chain capabilities, accelerate product development, and support go-to-market growth.
DeFi As Infrastructure For The AI Economy
According to Herman Narula, co-founder and CEO of Improbable, DeFi is evolving into a foundational layer for future AI-driven financial systems.
Narula said platforms capable of understanding complex user positions and surfacing relevant insights in real time could define an entirely new category within decentralised finance.
CEO and co-founder Clement Hecquet said the company selected Improbable as an investor because of its operational involvement beyond capital alone.
“From the beginning, we received hands-on support across product, scaling, and go-to-market strategy,” Hecquet said.
“That kind of partnership is what helps move a company from thousands of users to millions.”
