Hub.xyz, a programmable-bandwidth network designed to repurpose idle internet connections into real-time data streams for AI, is accelerating its growth with $1.7 million in funding. SwissBorg, Europe’s leading digital wealth platform, has led both the pre-seed and seed rounds, reaffirming confidence in Hub.xyz’s vision of a distributed AI data infrastructure.
The collaboration enables SwissBorg’s large verified user community to play a direct role in Hub.xyz’s expansion by contributing idle bandwidth. This model creates a community-led, scalable alternative to traditional, high-cost AI data collection methods.
As AI adoption accelerates, enterprises face challenges related to data quality, freshness, and cost. Hub.xyz provides a sustainable alternative by building a global, distributed supernetwork that powers advanced, on-demand data streams. This approach not only reduces reliance on expensive and outdated methods but also expands AI model coverage across diverse and hard-to-access parts of the internet.
“This strategic investment from SwissBorg reinforces Hub.xyz's greatest strength, the resilience of its distributed network,” said Tim Sprecher, co-founder and COO, Hub.xyz. “We’re proving that the future of AI infrastructure is distributed, powered by people across the globe. This new investment, together with the support of SwissBorg’s large community and the strong market demand we’re seeing in the Bay Area, positions Hub perfectly to accelerate its next stage of growth.”
With over one million KYC-verified users and $2 billion in assets under management, SwissBorg adds credibility, compliance, and scale to the partnership. Its proven track record in backing AI and infrastructure companies makes it a key enabler for Hub.xyz’s growth.
“SwissBorg is confident that Hub.xyz has the potential to become foundational infrastructure for the AI economy,” said Franklin Lacroix Wasover, Director of Investment Experience, SwissBorg. “Leading this round is fully aligned with our strategy to back critical primitives in compute, storage, and bandwidth, and positions us at the forefront of the next wave of infrastructure innovation.”
Beyond financial investment, SwissBorg members will be able to participate directly in Hub.xyz’s network. By contributing idle bandwidth, they help accelerate the coverage and resilience of the distributed pipeline. In return, members gain exclusive access and benefits, creating a bridge between capital investment and real-world infrastructure value.
This announcement marks the beginning of a long-term partnership between Hub.xyz and SwissBorg, laying the foundation for future synergies in the AI data infrastructure space.
Hub.xyz’s fundraising success provides the resources necessary to fuel its scaling efforts and reinforce its position as a leader in community-powered AI infrastructure.
