OneChronos is a technology company at the intersection of Capital Markets, Machine Learning and Auction Theory. We’re bringing “Smart Markets,” the academic term for markets that match counterparties using mathematical optimization, to finance. Smart Markets have a proven ability to outperform traditional auctions, and the theory underpinning them was the subject of the 2020 Nobel Prize in Economics.

Our goal is to expand the pie of trades that can occur, by empowering users with venue-level tools to better manage and express their trading or risk management objectives. OneChronos is a Y Combinator alum and venture backed start-up company with offices in New York City’s Soho neighborhood.
