This move strengthens TIFIN's capabilities in natural language AI and enables around-the-clock development from its teams in the U.S., Spain, and India.
As financial services become increasingly conversational, as enterprise clients have a geographically dispersed user base, and as personalized interactions become increasingly important, the ability to serve users in their native languages is a strong advantage to building AI applications that drive adoption and trust. This capability is also allowing TIFIN to start serving clients in regions such as Japan.
This growth reflects TIFIN's strategy to tap into globally dispersed AI talent. The newly formed 10-person team in India adds to the existing AI talent in the US and brings deep specialization in financial LLMs and multilingual capabilities — a foundation for expanding TIFIN's AI products to international markets. The India team has already contributed to breakthroughs in agent-driven productivity tools and multilingual experiences in the finance domain. A recent paper published by the team also won 3rd place in SemEval (solving a multi-lingual challenge).
'Our mission is to improve wealth outcomes through accessible, personalized AI,' said Uttung Malkan, Chief Operating Officer for TIFIN India. 'Building this multilingual team in India expands our ability to do that — faster, smarter, and for more people globally.'
'With product teams distributed across the U.S., Spain, and India, we're able to move faster and tap global AI talent more effectively,' said Kiran Nambiar, TIFIN Partner and CEO of MyFi, TIFIN's consumer brand in India. 'Over time, this structure gives us a durable advantage as LLM talent becomes increasingly decentralized.'
TIFIN's AI teams are embedded across its product companies such as Magnifi, @Work, and Sage supporting AI assistants and agent-based workflows for enterprise clients. The company continues to invest in applied AI research, model fine-tuning, and LLM-driven product innovation to meet the evolving needs of asset managers, wealth firms, and insurers. TIFIN has been recognized for its culture and talent by Vault's Fintech 100 Outstanding Employers, Forbes' America's Best Startup Employers, and is Great Place To Work Certified™.
