Last week marked a defining moment for Ketchup AI. We were honored to be selected as a finalist in the Global FinTech Hackcelerator (GFTN) and to showcase our product at the Singapore FinTech Festival (SFF) 2025, the world’s largest fintech event. For a young startup, being recognized on a global stage like this is both humbling and energizing.
As finalists, we had the opportunity to pitch Ketchup AI to an audience of over 300 industry leaders, regulators, innovators, and investors. Sharing our vision — that conversation data is the most powerful, yet most underutilized asset in relationship-driven sales — was a proud moment for our entire team.
Throughout the festival, we connected with insurance executives, financial advisory leaders, investors, and many early supporters. Their reactions were consistent and encouraging: the need for a simple, mobile-first way to capture and act on client conversations is real, urgent, and widely felt across the industry. The validation we received reinforced that Ketchup is solving a universal problem in a way that feels intuitive and impactful.
GFTN and SFF were more than events for us — they were a clear signal that the market is ready for what we’re building. The conversations we had opened doors, sparked new ideas, and strengthened our belief that conversation intelligence will play a central role in the future of sales and distribution.
We are grateful to MAS, GFTN, SFA, and the wider fintech community for the recognition and support. This milestone has given us even more conviction to push forward, build faster, and serve relationship-driven professionals across Asia and beyond.
The journey is just beginning — and we’re excited for what comes next.
